Custom Ethnic Bandana — Merino Wool with Pleating
We make ethnic bandana built around moroccan zellige tile geometry, produced in Merino Wool with pleating. On ethnic bandana the decision that matters most is edge finish that survives repeated tying and washing, so that is fixed in the tech pack before cloth is bought — not discovered on the first bulk lot. Programmes start at 100 pieces per style per colour and ship to Jebel Ali.
The failures here are predictable: unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing, and shade variation within one carton. We lock the specification before bulk — cloth, trim, dye lot, hem finish and tolerance — and prepare GSO conformity with Arabic labelling so shipments clear instead of sitting at port while the spring tourist 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 Jebel Ali 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 edge finish that survives repeated tying and washing.
FAQ
Can you match a fabric or a physical sample?
Yes. Send the reference and we match cloth weight, hand feel and shade, then confirm on a strike-off before bulk.
How long does sampling take?
A first sample takes 12 working days, and each revision about 5 days.
Do you ship to our forwarder?
Yes. We deliver to your nominated forwarder or quote landed cost under the agreed Incoterm.
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.
