Case Study: Custom Jacket Lining Fabric Interlining Lining for a Department Store Buyer in Israel

Jacket Lining Fabric Interlining Lining for a Department Store Buyer in Israel

A Department Store Buyer approached us with a jacket lining fabric interlining lining requirement for Israel. The brief was specific: a defined look, a hard launch date and a unit cost that had to survive shipping and duty. This case study records what was specified, what went wrong in sampling and how the bulk order was delivered.

The challenge

• Suppliers who disappear once the deposit is paid
• Long lead times that miss the selling season
• Unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing

What we specified

How it was resolved

1. We rebuilt the tech pack around Velour and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
2. Decoration was moved to Custom Drawcord after strike-off tests showed better wash durability.
3. A pre-production sample was approved and retained as the golden reference.
4. Production ran with in-line inspection and a mid-run photo report.
5. Cartons were packed to the client's own barcode and size ratio specification.

Result

• 1,200 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
• Unit cost held within 3.0% of the original quotation.
• Return rate linked to fit or workmanship stayed under 0.5%.
• The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.

What we would repeat

Fix the size ratio early. Changing the ratio after cutting starts is the single most expensive change a client can request.
