Custom Mannequin — Polyester with Pleating
We supply mannequin to garment factories and brands, built in Polyester with pleating for e-commerce and small-batch brands. On a trim like this the specification that decides the outcome is measurement accuracy against the size chart you sell, 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 finish that tarnishes or rubs off after washing, or colour drift between the approved sample and the bulk trim. We lock material, finish, dimension and tolerance before bulk, and prepare CPSIA and California Prop 65 compliance 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 CPSIA lead and phthalate testing are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Los Angeles or New York 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 measurement accuracy against the size chart you sell.
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.
Which compliance documents do you provide?
We prepare CPSIA lead and phthalate testing and the supporting test reports for the destination market.
Do you ship to our forwarder?
Yes. We deliver to your nominated forwarder or quote landed cost under the agreed Incoterm.
How do you control colour on reorders?
The approved reference and the bulk standard are retained, and every reorder is checked against them before shipment.
