Plus Size Arm Shaper Customization Program for Boutique and Independent Labels with Ultrasonic Welding
Plus Size Arm Shaper Solution for Boutique and Independent Labels
This programme covers the full path from a plus size arm shaper concept to a repeatable bulk supply for boutique and independent labels. Instead of buying whatever a catalogue happens to stock, you specify the cloth, the fit block, the decoration method and the packing, and we hold that specification so every reorder matches the last one.
The most common failure we see in boutique and independent labels sourcing is not price — it is drift. Fabric changes supplier, the shade moves, sizing shifts half a grade and the programme quietly stops looking like the brand. We prevent that with a written spec, an approved counter sample and a golden sample retained at the factory.
Recommended fabrics
- Pique Knit — used when durability and abrasion resistance come first
- French Terry — preferred for breathability in warm conditions
- Poplin — preferred for breathability in warm conditions
- Stretch Denim — best balance of comfort, cost and wash stability
Decoration and finishing
The default method for this programme is Ultrasonic Welding, but we routinely combine processes on one garment. Placement, colour count and position drives cost more than the garment itself, so we quote decoration separately and show you the trade-off before sampling.
- Tonal Embroidery
- Flat Embroidery
- Enzyme Wash
- Distressed Finish

FAQ
Can you match a specific colour?
Yes. Send us a Pantone TCX reference or a physical swatch. We return lab dips for approval and hold bulk shade within the agreed tolerance band before cutting.
Do you provide compliance documents?
We can arrange OEKO-TEX, GOTS, BSCI, WRAP and ISO documentation as well as third-party testing reports for OEKO-TEX Standard 100, and we support REACH, CPSIA and Prop 65 declarations for the relevant markets.
How is shipping handled?
We quote EXW, FOB, CIF and DDP. Consolidated sea freight is the default for bulk programmes, with air or express options when a launch date is at risk.
How long does sampling take?
A first prototype is typically ready in 14 working days after the tech pack is confirmed, including fabric sourcing if the base cloth is not in our stock library. Revisions add about 3 days each.
