Custom Peaked Cap — TPU with Steam Blocking
We supply peaked cap to brands, retailers, uniform and promotional programmes, made in TPU with steam blocking for outerwear and jacket programmes. On headwear the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is brim flatness, because a wavy brim is returned immediately — so that is agreed in writing before bulk, not discovered when the first carton is unpacked. Programmes start at 500 pieces per style.
The failures here are predictable: colour drift between the approved sample and the bulk trim, 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.

- Bulk production with in-line checks on shape, stitching and trim alignment

Where it sells
- Retail chains and department stores — repeatable spec, stable reorders
- E-commerce and small-batch brands — low minimums across many designs
- Uniform and corporate programmes — held spec for years of repeat orders
- Promotional and event channels — logo application and retail packing
- Outdoor and winter programmes — built for the climate it is sold in
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 brim flatness.
FAQ
What is the minimum order?
Programmes start at 500 pieces per style per finish. Mixed sizes are fine within one style.
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 do small runs across many designs?
Yes — many studio and boutique programmes run small quantities across a wide design set.
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.
