Solution

OEM and Private-Label Towel Production

Your design your label your packing produced under one order

Overview

Why This Programme Exists

Private label is not a product, it is a chain of approvals. Artwork, lab dip, sample, packing, documents. Each one is a place an order can stall, so the point of this programme is to move every approval to the front where a delay costs days rather than weeks.

Stage By Stage

The 8 Stages And What Goes Wrong At Each One

Each stage names the risk before it names the answer, because that is the order a buyer meets them in.

Enquiry and specification

Problem. You send a target size, weight, decoration and landed cost, or a physical towel to match.

How we handle it. We reply with the workable combinations rather than one quotation, so you can see the trade between weight, size and decoration.

Artwork and design

Problem. Logos and motifs have to be translated into a weave, an embroidery file or a print.

How we handle it. We tell you which method suits the artwork before any tooling is committed, and send back what the design will realistically look like in that method.

Lab dip and colour

Problem. Screen colour and dyed cotton are different things and approving the wrong one costs a bulk run.

How we handle it. A physical lab dip is matched to your Pantone reference or swatch and sent for approval before bulk dyeing.

Sampling

Problem. The sample is the contract. Everything after this is measured against it.

How we handle it. A production sample is made in 10 days for you to wash, weigh and photograph before the bulk order is confirmed.

Bulk production

Problem. Weight and shade drift is the main risk once the looms are running.

How we handle it. Weaving, dyeing, washing, cutting and hemming run to the approved sample, with the finished weight checked before packing.

Packing

Problem. Retail packing done at source removes a repacking cost at your end.

How we handle it. Woven labels, hang tags, header cards, barcodes and retail bags are applied during packing to your artwork.

Documents and shipping

Problem. A missing certificate holds a container at the port.

How we handle it. Oeko-Tex Standard 100, AZO free testing evidence and the commercial set travel with the shipment.

Reorder

Problem. A reorder that does not match the first delivery is a new problem, not a repeat.

How we handle it. We keep the approved lab dip and sample reference so the second delivery sits beside the first.

Outcome

What You Get At The End

  • One purchase order covers towels, robes, mats and blankets in a matched colour
  • Approvals happen in the first two weeks rather than during production
  • Retail packing arrives ready for the shelf
  • Reorders reference the original lab dip instead of starting again

Questions About OEM and Private Label

What do you need from me to start?
A target size, weight and quantity, your artwork, and either a Pantone reference or a physical swatch. If you have a towel you already sell, send that instead and we will match it.
How long does the whole cycle take?
Roughly 10 days for the sample and 45 days for production after the order is placed, plus your freight time.
Can you produce several products under one order?
Yes. Towels, robes, mats, kitchen towels and blankets can run on one order and ship in one container with one set of documents.
Who owns the artwork and the design?
You do. Custom jacquard and embroidery files developed for your order are produced for your order.
What are the payment terms?
30% T/T deposit with the order and 70% balance before shipment, or an L/C at sight.
