Can you work with digital printing and what is the cost?

Yes, we can work with digital prints. You can send the file through Corel Draw or vector file and we will print it on to the fabric. It costs between 8 - 15 dollars per square meter depending on the fabric. For higher material fabric, the printing tends to be more towards the higher end. If you don't have file in Corel draw/vector file, we can design for you at your cost USD 30/design

Following is benefit of Digital Printing:

1. Digital printing will not require additional cost to set it up. Compared to screen printing, it will cost 70 USD per screen
2. When using digital printing, the colors are not limited, unlike screen printing, which can only support a maximum of 4 colors.
3. Digital printing does not require much time, while still producing high quality designs. This will allow business to be respond faster to changing customer needs.
4. Compared to screen printing, digital printing has a lower minimum order quantity. This will lower cost as you will not need to buy additional fabric to meet to the minimum quantity.
5. This also makes it more suitable for sampling. As it does not involve working mixing paints, the risk of not matching computer designs will be minimized.
6. Unlike screen printing, which is done by workers physically, digital printing will minimize rejects.
7. Hence, the colors of each product will not vary.However, we are still able to do both digital and screen printing, depending on what best suit your needs.

Besides digital, we also have an in house facility to print through traditional silk screen printing. We are also able to batik process through chop wax stamp, hand painting, or tie-dye/dyeing.

4. Your agreement on the sample and business price. Please note that sample prices are 2-3 times higher than the business price as samples consume more time to make individually, and may require us buying more materials then needed for that sample due to the minimum requirements to buy from the supplier. Or, if the order is printed, we may need to buy the ink that will not always end up being used, and hence increase the cost.
5. The sample price payed fully in advance to production. A 50% deposit is needed to start the order.
6. We will proceed the sample after payment received. Once sample finish, we will send the physical sample or pictures of it, depending on your needs.

Do you accept orders from startup businesses?

Yes, we accept orders from startup businesses as long as the order fulfills the minimum order quantity and have a specific reference for the picture, size, materials and quantity in mind. We would be pleased to work with startups which show commitment to their business and understand that it will be more longer time as we will spend more time discussing samples and orders. Please note that sample prices will be 2-3 times of the business price as we will invest a lot of time and resources to producing a sample that suits your needs.

I have a sample to copy and develop for a different design. Are you able to work with this and how?

Yes, you can send us the sample/product you would like us to produce with a detailed description of what you would like to change/develop with specified changes of any size, print, label, material, or color. If you are unable to send the physical sample, we are also able to work with photos of the product from multiple angles with high resolution and all details info as size specification, fabric need, accessories use, although preferably, the physical sample will be more informative.

I would like a wholesaler to purchase ready stock from.

Yes, you can buy our ready stock by ordering from our ecommerce system.

I would like to meet with you. Are you available?

Are you an ethical producer?

1. We always try to use what we need, and prevent excessive waste of fabric.
2. We do this through planning ahead how much material we need to reduce unnecessary usage of materials, and if there are any leftover fabric, we immediately inform customers so that the fabric can be used to produce the order.
3. Additionally, we sell any rejects of products to prevent usable clothes from being thrown out.
4. Please note: we always inform customer that production quantity may not exactly meet the order. For example, if the order quantity was 100, with 5 rejects, then the order has been met with 95% of the quantity. Please understand that we are not able to start a new production to fulfill the remaining 5% as this will mean repurchasing fabric, with additional leftovers and waste.
5. On the other hand, if, like mentioned previously, there are leftover fabric, we will contact our customer to inform them and use the remaining fabric to produce the order. Hence, the quantity we send may be slightly more than what was ordered. The pricing for the total order will be adjusted to accommodate the quantity.
6. We will greatly appreciate customers who are able to understand this.
7. We take social responsibility very seriously.
8. We always try our best to ensure our local community and workers are well.
9. In the past, we have lend money to our employees or local community to aid them, without charging interest.
10. Typically, if there are those in the local community interested in starting a business, we give them a free consultation to teach them the basics of accounting, managing the production and cash flow, and implementing the manufacturing process.
11. We also donate to children attend school, support a business idea, pay for a ceremony, or help elders in the community we live in or the ones we grew up in.
12. We also support staff when they quit to pursue their own business, as our staffs may work again with us in the future as an external stakeholder.
13. In the past, most of our staff worked in the factory. However, as they grew and formed new families, they may wish to attend to their families needs, such as taking care of their children, while still requiring a source of income to support their family.
14. We help them by lending machines or letting them buy the machine to be taken from their salaries in the following months/year without them needing to really pay money.
15. This allows them to work without sacrificing time with their family. And, when we were low on order, they were still able to take orders from other businesses.

2. For larger orders above 1000 pieces, we recommend Airfreight (USD 0.75 – 1/piece)
3. For Order 5.000 pieces up, we recommend Sea freight, payed for each cubic (USD 0.20 - 0.30/pieces).
