Custom Balaclava — Polyester with Epoxy Dome
We supply balaclava to brands, retailers, uniform and promotional programmes, made in Polyester with epoxy dome for childrenswear and schoolwear. On headwear the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is seam flatness, since these sit against the face for hours — so that is agreed in writing before bulk, not discovered when the first carton is unpacked. Programmes start at 3000 pieces per style.
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, construction, measurement and tolerance on a pre-production sample, and prepare GB 18401 safety classification with GB/T 29862 fibre labelling so the container clears instead of missing the season it was bought for.

Packing, testing and delivery
Pieces are packed to the ratio you specify — by size, by colour or by style set — with barcodes applied where the channel needs them, and shape-protected where the profile cannot be crushed. Test reports for salt spray test for metal finishes are prepared for the destination market. We ship to Shanghai or Shenzhen with invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and keep the approved reference on file so reorders reproduce the same material, the same construction and the same seam flatness.
FAQ
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.
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 salt spray test for metal finishes and the supporting test reports for the destination market.
What packing options are available?
Bulk packed, carded, or packed to your own size and design ratio with barcodes applied.
