Custom Mannequin — Acrylic with Dye-Sublimation Printing
We supply mannequin to garment factories and brands, built in Acrylic with dye-sublimation printing for outerwear and jacket programmes. On a trim like this the specification that decides the outcome is surface finish, because fabric snags on a rough form, so that is agreed in writing before bulk — not discovered when the first carton is opened on the line. Programmes start at 500 pieces per style per finish.
The failures here are predictable: inconsistent sizing between production runs, or unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing. We lock material, finish, dimension and tolerance before bulk, and prepare UKCA and REACH documentation so the shipment clears instead of sitting at port while your selling season passes.

- Outerwear and tailoring — matched to the shell fabric so it drapes with the garment

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 Felixstowe 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 surface finish.
