How We Work With Your Brand.
From initial 3D tech-pack submission to final physical sample approval and international air delivery, our workflow is transparent, rapid, and zero-compromise.
Pattern Making
Patterns are created to match your required sizes and design geometries. Each product features a unique 3D CAD pattern, crafted with millimeter accuracy and grading precision.
Pre-Production Sample
Before bulk production, we create a full-spec physical master sample and ship it to you for approval. Once signed off, we proceed immediately to the next step.
Material & Fabric Sourcing
Performance fabrics are milled and inspected in our climate-controlled warehouse. We test GSM weight, 4-way stretch recovery, and capillary moisture-wicking before cutting.
Precision Laser Cutting
Automated computer-guided CNC laser cutters slice multi-layer fabric panels with zero distortion, guaranteeing 100% seam alignment and uniform sizing across the entire batch.
Sublimation & Bulk Assembly
Full orders are produced on our high-density 1200 DPI Japanese sublimation printers and 6-needle flatlock stitching lines, with in-line AQL 1.0 quality checkpoints at every stage.
Packaging & Global Logistics
Garments are individual polybagged with your private labels, custom barcodes, and size tags, packed into reinforced export cartons, and dispatched via tracked express air cargo.
Trusted Across Canada
“We outfitted 12 regional leagues across Ontario with custom sublimation kits. Quality and stitch consistency exceeded our previous domestic suppliers.”
