Technical softshell, 0.8% defect rate.

The challenge

The client’s previous softshell run had delamination and seam-puckering complaints. They needed a supplier who could control bonding quality and document inspections ahead of a seasonal launch.

Our solution

We ran peel-strength and wash tests on the bonded fabric before cutting, added an inline checkpoint at zipper insertion and seam taping, and agreed a written AQL plan with a photo report for every shipment.

• Fabric peel-strength & wash tests before cutting
• Inline checkpoint at zipper insertion
• Written AQL plan with photo reports
• Pre-production meeting with client QC
