Custom Beanie — Polar Fleece with Ultrasonic Welding
We supply beanie to brands, retailers, uniform and promotional programmes, made in Polar Fleece with ultrasonic welding for bridal and eveningwear studios. On headwear the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is warmth for the weight, which is what the customer judges in store — so that is agreed in writing before bulk, not discovered when the first carton is unpacked. Programmes start at 300 pieces per style.
The failures here are predictable: a finish that tarnishes or rubs off after washing, or minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb. We lock material, construction, measurement and tolerance on a pre-production sample, and prepare REACH and GPSR documentation 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 Rotterdam or Felixstowe 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 warmth for the weight.
