Custom Ethnic Hat — Raffia Straw with Sandwich Brim
We supply ethnic hat to brands, retailers, uniform and promotional programmes, made in Raffia Straw with sandwich brim for uniform and corporate programmes. On headwear the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is security of decorative components, tested by pull — so that is agreed in writing before bulk, not discovered when the first carton is unpacked. Programmes start at 2000 pieces per style.
The failures here are predictable: a finish that tarnishes or rubs off after washing, or shade variation within one carton. 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 GRS recycled content claim 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 security of decorative components.
