Custom Ribbon — Linen with Piece Dyeing
We supply ribbon to garment factories and brands, built in Linen with piece dyeing for denim and workwear programmes. On a trim like this the specification that decides the outcome is colour fastness to washing and light, so that is agreed in writing before bulk — not discovered when the first carton is opened on the line. Programmes start at 1000 pieces per style per finish.
The failures here are predictable: minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb, or colour drift between the approved sample and the bulk trim. We lock material, finish, dimension and tolerance before bulk, and prepare REACH and GPSR documentation so the shipment clears instead of sitting at port while your selling season passes.

Where it is used
- Denim and workwear — hard-wearing finishes that survive industrial washing
- Outerwear and tailoring — matched to the shell fabric so it drapes with the garment
- Childrenswear and schoolwear — tested to the destination's safety standard
- Bridal and eveningwear — small runs with hand-finished detail
- Uniform and corporate programmes — repeatable spec held on file for reorders
Packing, testing and delivery
Trims are packed to the ratio you specify — by size, by colour or by garment set — with barcodes applied where the line needs them. Test reports for OEKO-TEX Standard 100 for dyes and trims are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Rotterdam or Felixstowe with the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and hold the approved reference so reorders reproduce the same material, the same finish and the same colour fastness to washing and light.
