Custom Tie & Accessory — Zinc Alloy with UV Printing
We supply tie & accessory to brands, retailers and uniform programmes, made in Zinc Alloy with uv printing for denim and workwear programmes. On a piece like this the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is interlining recovery, so the knot springs back after a day of wear — so that is agreed in writing before bulk, not discovered after the shipment lands. Programmes start at 500 pieces per style.
The failures here are predictable: packing that arrives mixed and unusable on the line, or a finish that tarnishes or rubs off after washing. 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 interlining recovery.
