Custom Skirt for the Asia-Pacific Islands Market — Hemp with Hangtag and Packaging
We supply skirt to island-market buyers built for monsoon rainy season with sudden squalls. Cloth weight, openness of weave and colour fastness are specified for heat, humidity and salt air first: Hemp at 110-140 gsm, shade-matched to hold up under strong UV, chlorinated water and frequent laundering. Programmes start at 150 pieces per style per colour and ship to Colombo or Male.
The failure modes in this region are consistent: unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing, and packaging that arrives crushed and unsellable. We lock the specification before bulk — weight, shrinkage, stitch density and tolerance — and prepare the documents SLSI requires, so containers clear instead of accruing demurrage at the port.

Import, duty and delivery
SLSI certification for Sri Lanka is arranged before the goods leave the factory. We ship LCL or FCL to Colombo or Male, provide the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and quote landed cost so duty and GST are visible before you commit. Reorders draw on the approved specification held on file, which matters for resort programmes that reorder every season.
FAQ
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 4 days each.
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 SLSI certification for Sri Lanka, and we support REACH, CPSIA and Prop 65 declarations for the relevant markets.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Standard programmes start at 150 pieces per style and colour. We can split sizes across a size set, and for first orders we often accept a mixed-colour run to help you test the market.
