Custom Ivy Cap — Quilted Padding with Edge Binding
We supply ivy cap to brands, retailers, uniform and promotional programmes, made in Quilted Padding with edge binding for childrenswear and schoolwear. On headwear the specification that decides whether it sells or comes back is panel symmetry on an eight-piece crown — 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 shade variation within one carton. We lock material, construction, measurement and tolerance on a pre-production sample, and prepare UKCA and REACH 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 REACH nickel-release test for metal findings are prepared for the destination market. We ship to 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 panel symmetry on an eight-piece crown.
FAQ
Which compliance documents do you provide?
We prepare REACH nickel-release test for metal findings and the supporting test reports for the destination market.
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.
What is the minimum order?
Programmes start at 3000 pieces per style per finish. Mixed sizes are fine within one style.
Can you do small runs across many designs?
Yes — many studio and boutique programmes run small quantities across a wide design set.
