Custom Ethnic Head Wrap — Poplin with Smocking
We make ethnic head wrap built around uzbek suzani medallions, produced in Poplin with smocking. On ethnic head wrap the decision that matters most is opacity, so the cloth does not go sheer under strong sun, so that is fixed in the tech pack before cloth is bought — not discovered on the first bulk lot. Programmes start at 150 pieces per style per colour and ship to Jakarta or Port Klang.
The failures here are predictable: inconsistent sizing between production runs, and packaging that arrives crushed and unsellable. We lock the specification before bulk — cloth, trim, dye lot, hem finish and tolerance — and prepare SNI or SIRIM documentation per destination so shipments clear instead of sitting at port while the summer festival season passes.

Care, packing and delivery
Each piece is folded, tissue-wrapped and packed to the ratio you specify, with barcodes and hangtags applied where the retail channel needs them. Care labelling follows the destination's rules. We ship to Jakarta or Port Klang with the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and hold the approved specification on file so reorders reproduce the same cloth, the same shade and the same opacity,.
FAQ
How long does sampling take?
A first sample takes 7 working days, and each revision about 3 days.
What packing options are available?
Folded and tissue-wrapped, hangtag and barcode applied, or packed to your own size and design ratio.
How do you control colour on reorders?
The approved lab dip and the bulk reference are retained, and every reorder is checked against them before shipment.
