Knit Sweater Customization Program for Police and Fire Departments with Applique Embroidery
Knit Sweater Customization Program for Police and Fire Departments
This programme covers the full path from a knit sweater concept to repeatable bulk supply for police and fire departments. The build starts from everyday-casual references — knit sweater in modal blend — then locks fabric weight, wash behaviour and fit tolerance so every reorder matches the approved sample.
Most knit sweater buyers arrive with one of these problems: the fabric felt thinner than the approved sample, or the fit drifted between sizes. The fix is a written spec before bulk: shrinkage allowance, stitch density, colour tolerance and a golden sample kept at the factory.

Quality control
Every bulk lot is compared against the approved sample for shade, hand feel, measurements and wash behaviour. Knit Sweater reorders stay comparable over time because the spec, the lab dip and the golden sample are all on file.
FAQ
Do you provide compliance documents?
We can arrange OEKO-TEX, GOTS, BSCI, WRAP and ISO documentation as well as third-party testing reports for WRAP, and we support REACH, CPSIA and Prop 65 declarations for the relevant markets.
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.
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.
What file formats do you need for artwork?
Vector files (AI, EPS, PDF) give the best print and embroidery results. For raster artwork please supply at least 300 dpi at the final print size. We digitise embroidery files in-house and return a sew-out photo for approval.
