Fabric & Trim Sourcing

We work with a wide network of premium, certified fabric mills and trim specialists across Turkey, India, the Far East, and Europe — enabling seamless integration of compliance, innovation, and supply chain transparency at every stage of development.

Our sourcing approach is built to support both performance-focused collections and sustainability-driven brands with consistency, traceability, and technical versatility. Fabric alone can account for up to 50% of a garment’s cost and performance — so we go beyond standard mill sourcing. We collaborate with trusted, certified suppliers, including nominated mills and trim vendors, to ensure quality, transparency, and compliance. Our sourcing network is flexible enough to incorporate your nominated supplier programs seamlessly into production.

• Recycled and organic knits including organic cotton, polyamide, modal, Lenzing® Modal, TENCEL™, Refibra™, bamboo, hemp, merino wool, viscose, polyester, and other branded and blended yarns.
