Custom Apparel Bead — Coconut Shell with Mirror Polish
We supply apparel bead to garment factories and brands, built in Coconut Shell with mirror polish for bridal and eveningwear studios. 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 5000 pieces per style per finish.
The failures here are predictable: minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb, or a supplier who disappears once the deposit is paid. We lock material, finish, dimension and tolerance before bulk, and prepare SNI or SIRIM documentation per destination 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 mirror polish 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 REACH nickel-release test for metal findings are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Jakarta or Port Klang 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.
