Custom Apparel Bead — Acrylic Rhinestone with Fringe Finish
We supply apparel bead to garment factories and brands, built in Acrylic Rhinestone with fringe finish for uniform and corporate programmes. On a trim like this the specification that decides the outcome is hole diameter, which decides whether two passes of thread fit, so that is agreed in writing before bulk — not discovered when the first carton is opened on the line. Programmes start at 3000 pieces per style per finish.
The failures here are predictable: a supplier who disappears once the deposit is paid, or packing that arrives mixed and unusable on the line. 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.

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 fringe finish 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 azo dye-free declaration 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 hole diameter.
