Custom Tie & Accessory — Stainless Steel with Sanforising
We supply tie & accessory to brands, retailers and uniform programmes, made in Stainless Steel with sanforising for childrenswear and schoolwear. On a piece like this the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is stain resistance, since a tie is rarely washable — 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: colour drift between the approved sample and the bulk trim, or inconsistent sizing between production runs. We lock material, construction, measurement and tolerance on a pre-production sample, and prepare UKCA and REACH 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 salt spray test for metal finishes are prepared for the destination market. We ship to 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 stain resistance.
