Custom Tie & Accessory — Alpaca Blend with Moisture-Wicking Finish
We supply tie & accessory to brands, retailers and uniform programmes, made in Alpaca Blend with moisture-wicking finish for childrenswear and schoolwear. 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 3000 pieces per style.
The failures here are predictable: shade variation within one carton, or colour drift between the approved sample and the bulk trim. 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 interlining recovery.
FAQ
Can you do small runs across many designs?
Yes — many studio and boutique programmes run small quantities across a wide design set.
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 match a reference sample?
Yes. Send the trim and we match material, finish and shade, then confirm on a pre-production sample before bulk.
What packing options are available?
Bulk packed, carded, or packed to your own size and design ratio with barcodes applied.
