Custom Cord Stopper — Acrylic with Gunmetal Plating
We supply cord stopper to garment factories and brands, built in Acrylic with gunmetal plating for outerwear and jacket programmes. On a trim like this the specification that decides the outcome is grip force on the actual cord, tested both dry and wet, 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: inconsistent sizing between production runs, or colour drift between the approved sample and the bulk trim. We lock material, finish, dimension and tolerance before bulk, and prepare GSO conformity with Arabic labelling so the shipment clears instead of sitting at port while your selling season passes.

How we produce it
- Drawing or reference sample review, with size and finish confirmed
- Material selection and a finish sample or strike-off

- Bulk run with gunmetal plating applied under controlled settings
- In-line inspection, final AQL 2.5 inspection and packing to your ratio
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 salt spray test for metal finishes are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Jebel Ali 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 grip force on the actual cord.
FAQ
Can you match a reference sample?
Yes. Send the trim and we match material, finish and shade, then confirm on a pre-production sample before bulk.

Yes — many studio and boutique programmes run small quantities across a wide design set.
What is the minimum order?
Programmes start at 1000 pieces per style per finish. Mixed sizes are fine within one style.
Which compliance documents do you provide?
We prepare salt spray test for metal finishes and the supporting test reports for the destination market.
