Custom Sleeve & Knee Sleeve in Natural Rubber with Warp Knitting for Outerwear and Jacket Programmes

Custom Sleeve & Knee Sleeve — Natural Rubber with Warp Knitting

We supply sleeve & knee sleeve to brands, retailers and uniform programmes, made in Natural Rubber with warp knitting for outerwear and jacket programmes. On a piece like this the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is recovery after repeated stretching, because a bagged sleeve is dead — so that is agreed in writing before bulk, not discovered after the shipment lands. Programmes start at 1000 pieces per style.

The failures here are predictable: a supplier who disappears once the deposit is paid, or minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb. We lock material, construction, measurement and tolerance on a pre-production sample, and prepare REACH and GPSR documentation so the container clears instead of missing the season it was bought for.

Packing, testing and delivery

Pieces are packed to the ratio you specify — by size, by colour or by style set — with barcodes applied where the channel needs them. Test reports for EN 71 part 3 for decorative components are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Rotterdam or Felixstowe with invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and keep the approved reference on file so reorders reproduce the same material, the same construction and the same recovery after repeated stretching.

FAQ

Which compliance documents do you provide?

We prepare EN 71 part 3 for decorative components and the supporting test reports for the destination market.

How do you control colour on reorders?

The approved reference and the bulk standard are retained, and every reorder is checked against them before shipment.

Can you do small runs across many designs?

Yes — many studio and boutique programmes run small quantities across a wide design set.

Do you ship to our forwarder?

Yes. We deliver to your nominated forwarder or quote landed cost under the agreed Incoterm.
