Custom Rib Cuff — Linen with Ultrasonic Welding
We supply rib cuff to garment factories and brands, built in Linen with ultrasonic welding for childrenswear and schoolwear. On a trim like this the specification that decides the outcome is shrinkage match to the body fabric, so that is agreed in writing before bulk — not discovered when the first carton is opened on the line. Programmes start at 5000 pieces per style per finish.
The failures here are predictable: a supplier who disappears once the deposit is paid, or minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb. 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.

- 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 GRS recycled content claim 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 shrinkage match to the body fabric.
