Custom Rivet — Brass with Gunmetal Plating
We supply rivet to garment factories and brands, built in Brass with gunmetal plating for outerwear and jacket programmes. On a trim like this the specification that decides the outcome is cap-to-post fit, so the rivet does not spin after setting, so that is agreed in writing before bulk — not discovered when the first carton is opened on the line. Programmes start at 1000 pieces per style per finish.
The failures here are predictable: a finish that tarnishes or rubs off after washing, or a supplier who disappears once the deposit is paid. We lock material, finish, dimension and tolerance before bulk, and prepare CPSIA and California Prop 65 compliance so the shipment clears instead of sitting at port while your selling season passes.

Packing, testing and delivery
Trims are packed to the ratio you specify — by size, by colour or by garment set — with barcodes applied where the line needs them. Test reports for GRS recycled content claim are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Los Angeles or New York with the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and hold the approved reference so reorders reproduce the same material, the same finish and the same cap-to-post fit.
