Seam Tape with Rainbow Iridescent Finish for Activewear
This seam tape is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the rainbow iridescent finish surface, the 8# Gauge and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps activewear 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 elastic that lost recovery after three washes, or a trim that passed sampling but failed in-line because it was never cycle tested. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
