Garment manufacturers often purchase several materials from different suppliers, but direct sourcing can simplify procurement when the supplier has a suitable product range. For factories using non woven fusible interlining, working directly with a wholesale supplier can make it easier to discuss GSM, colours, roll quantities and production requirements.
Wholesale purchasing is different from buying a few metres for sampling. Suppliers generally operate with minimum order quantities because their stock is sourced and managed in bulk. Manufacturers should therefore calculate their consumption before requesting a quotation. This can include requirements across several garments, production batches or styles rather than focusing on one individual order.
Another advantage of planning ahead is better stock management. Non woven interlining can be required throughout a production season, especially by shirt manufacturers producing large quantities. Keeping sufficient material available helps prevent production delays caused by waiting for another supply.
Quality should also remain a priority when comparing suppliers. Manufacturers should assess the GSM, adhesive performance, roll length, colour and consistency of the non woven interlining fabric rather than comparing price alone. A cheaper product that creates bonding or finishing problems can increase overall production costs.
Double Ghoda works with garment manufacturers looking for wholesale interlining solutions. When approaching a supplier, providing details such as garment type, application, required quantity and preferred specification can help both sides identify a suitable product more efficiently.
