Case Study: Custom White Long Sleeve Blouse With Collar for a Mining Company in Malaysia
White Long Sleeve Blouse With Collar for a Mining Company in Malaysia
A Mining Company approached us with a white long sleeve blouse with collar requirement for Malaysia. 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
- No reliable way to track a order once it enters production
- Color drift between lab dips and bulk fabric
- Packaging that arrives crushed and unsellable

What we specified
| Product | White Long Sleeve Blouse With Collar |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Mining Company |
| Market | Malaysia |
| Order volume | 5,000 pieces across 6 colourways |
| Base fabric | Down-Proof Nylon |
| Decoration | Laser Cutting |
| Size range | S-4XL |
| Sampling rounds | 2 |
| Delivery window | 12 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Down-Proof Nylon and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Laser Cutting after strike-off tests showed better wash durability.
- A pre-production sample was approved and retained as the golden reference.
- Production ran with in-line inspection and a mid-run photo report.
- Cartons were packed to the client's own barcode and size ratio specification.

Result
- 5,000 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the original quotation.
- Return rate linked to fit or workmanship stayed under 2.0%.
- The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Approve a pre-production sample from the actual bulk fabric. Proto cloth behaves differently in cutting and washing.
