Custom Apparel Bead — TPU with Antique Brass Plating
We supply apparel bead to garment factories and brands, built in TPU with antique brass plating for bridal and eveningwear studios. On a trim like this the specification that decides the outcome is colour fastness of dyed beads against perspiration, so that is agreed in writing before bulk — not discovered when the first carton is opened on the line. Programmes start at 2000 pieces per style per finish.
The failures here are predictable: inconsistent sizing between production runs, or shade variation within one carton. We lock material, finish, dimension and tolerance before bulk, and prepare GSO conformity with Arabic labelling 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 EN 71 part 3 for decorative components are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Jebel Ali 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 colour fastness of dyed beads against perspiration.
