Linen Fabric with Pearlescent Coating for Sportswear
This linen fabric is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The fabric construction is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the pearlescent coating surface, the 360 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps sportswear consistent across seasons instead of drifting with whatever the mill happens to have in stock.
The usual reason buyers come to us is not price. It is shrinkage that only showed up after the first wash, or shrinkage that only showed up after the first wash. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
