OEM Project Workflow — From Tech Pack to Shipment
[table id=21 /]
Stage 01 — tech pack review — is where most OEM projects succeed or fail. Our engineering team reads your tech pack against four practical constraints: weave feasibility (can the specified pattern hold the shape?), material yield (does the brim diameter work with the chosen grass?), branding feasibility (does the embroidery area accommodate stitch density?), and accessory compatibility (do the specified hardware components match the crown thickness?). You receive a written feasibility note alongside the quote, flagging any spec that needs adjustment before sampling begins.

What Our Clients Say
Elena R.
Sourcing Manager, Madrid Fashion Group
Finding a factory that offers multiple natural straw options with flexible MOQs was a challenge until we found this team. Their MOQ 50 policy allowed us to test three different designs for our summer collection without heavy inventory risk. The 3-day sample turnaround was incredibly impressive.
Hans
Lead Distributor, Berlin Lifestyle Brand
The biggest headache in overseas sourcing is usually customs. This team handled everything via DDP (Delivered Duty Paid). No hidden fees, no paperwork, and no delays at the border. The pallets of lifeguard hats arrived directly at our warehouse in Berlin in perfect condition—not a single brim was crushed during transit.
Jennifer Chen
Product Developer, Sydney Outdoor Gear
Consistency is the hardest part of large-scale straw hat production, especially with hand-woven items. We provided a complex Tech Pack, and their engineering team executed the weave patterns and branding density perfectly. Out of 22,500 units, the quality of the first hat matched the last. Their QC process is truly world-class.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
OEM = you provide the design, we manufacture it. ODM = we develop the design from your brief, then manufacture it. If you have a tech pack or a sample to copy, OEM is the right path. If you need concept-to-product development, see our ODM service.
Both work. A complete tech pack (dimensions, materials, Pantone, branding spec, accessory BOM) lets us quote and sample directly. A sketch or reference photo is also accepted — it triggers a clarification call where our engineering team works with you to fill in the missing parameters before quoting.
Vector formats are strongly preferred: AI, EPS, or PDF with embedded fonts and outlined paths. PNG is accepted at 300 dpi minimum at the actual print size. For embroidery, we re-digitize from your vector file to a stitch file (DST) — included in the sample stage at no extra charge.
We match to Pantone Solid Coated reference. Sublimation on woven fabric carries an inherent ΔE tolerance — we target ΔE ≤ 3 against the reference under D65 lighting. Exact lab-grade Pantone matching is not achievable on textile substrates and we do not promise it.
Yes. A mutual NDA is available on request and signed before any tech pack is shared with our engineering or sourcing teams. Single-document signing covers the full project lifecycle including any follow-on reorders.
50 pcs. That is a hard floor for OEM — below it, the per-unit cost of pattern setup, material sourcing, and PP sampling makes the project uneconomical for both sides. The 50-pc floor applies per SKU per colorway.
