Frequently Asked Questions

What is your MOQ for adaptive apparel OEM orders?

Our MOQ is 100 pieces per style per color. This flexible minimum allows you to test market response or serve smaller institutional clients without excessive inventory commitment. For orders combining multiple colorways or styles, we can discuss further flexibility.

Do you provide sampling services before bulk production?

Yes, we offer pre-production sampling. Sample cost is $50-100 USD per piece depending on design complexity and feature requirements. Sample lead time is typically 7-15 days. We produce samples from your tech pack or work with you to develop designs. Sample costs may be credited toward bulk orders for established clients.

What's the typical lead time for bulk production?

Standard lead time is 30-45 days after sample approval and deposit. Timeline varies based on order quantity, fabric availability, and seasonal capacity. Rush orders can be accommodated with additional coordination.

Can you support compliance for US, EU, and Australian markets?

Yes, we work with US (FTC labeling, CPSC requirements), EU (EN standards), and Australian (AS/NZS) market requirements. We coordinate care label compliance, fabric safety testing (OEKO-TEX available), and provide all necessary documentation including certificates of origin and test reports.

What export markets do you currently serve?

We work with clients in the USA, Canada, UK, Australia, and several EU countries. We're familiar with import regulations and labeling requirements, and can ship directly to your warehouse or coordinate with your freight forwarder.

What shipping and logistics options are available?

We offer FOB shipping from our port, or can coordinate with your freight forwarder. Door-to-door shipping can be arranged. We provide full export documentation including commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and any required compliance certificates.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept T/T (bank wire), PayPal, Western Union, and Wise. We process payments in over 100 currencies worldwide—not just USD. Standard terms are 30% deposit, 70% before shipment. Terms are negotiable for established clients with solid payment history.

What if I don't have a tech pack? Can you help with design development?

Absolutely. We offer full design development support. If you have sketches, reference photos, or just concepts, our team can create tech packs, develop patterns, and recommend appropriate fabrics and adaptive features based on your end users' needs. We'll work with you from concept through production-ready samples.

Can I request sample revisions if the first sample doesn't work?

Yes, sample revisions are part of the process. After you test the first sample, you can request adjustments to fit, closure placement, fabric hand feel, or any functional elements. Minor revisions are typically included in the initial sample cost. Significant design changes may require additional sampling fees—we'll discuss this upfront before proceeding.

What fabrics can you source for adaptive apparel?

We source fabrics based on your requirements. Common options include rayon/viscose, merino wool, 100% cotton, modal, bamboo fiber, and technical blends. We prioritize patient-friendly certified fabrics like OEKO-TEX Standard 100 (safe for direct skin contact), hypoallergenic materials, and antimicrobial treatments when needed. Tell us your fabric preferences—softness, stretch, weight, care requirements—and we'll source swatches for your approval before production.

For first-time orders, can I start small to test the market?

Yes, our 100-piece MOQ is designed for market testing and first-time buyers. This lets you validate product-market fit, gather customer feedback, and assess quality before committing to larger runs. Many of our long-term clients started with test orders of 100-300 pieces before scaling up.

What happens if there are quality issues with the bulk production?

Quality issues are rare due to our multi-stage inspection process, but if defects occur, we stand behind our work. For manufacturing defects, we'll either reproduce the affected pieces or credit your next order. We document all QC checkpoints with photos and inspection reports so issues get identified and resolved quickly. Prevention is our priority—that's why we involve you in pre-production sample approval.

What OEM customization can you handle beyond standard adaptive features?

We can manufacture any adaptive apparel design you need. Our OEM services include sourcing any fabric you specify (organic cotton, specialty blends, performance materials, certified medical-grade textiles), procuring any trim or hardware (YKK zippers, custom snaps, magnetic closures, specialized fasteners), and engineering any functional feature (drainage access, catheter ports, specialized pockets, reinforced areas, custom sizing systems). Describe the function you need—we'll develop the manufacturing solution.
