OEM Apparel Manufacturer | 20+ Years of Experience

Production Capabilities

For brands that demand more than blanks — complex construction, premium finishes, and absolute production reliability. Start your clothing customs and enhance your brand with comprehensive OEM services.

For high-volume, high-impact graphics

Screen Printing

We use industrial-grade automatic and manual screen printing setups, capable of up to 5-color separation. Ideal for bold logos, layered artwork, and streetwear visuals that demand sharp contrast and long-lasting vibrancy. Our layering techniques support puff, metallic, and discharge inks.

For depth, dimension, and durable detailing.

Embroidery

We offer flat, 3D puff, chain-stitch, chenille, and mixed-thread embroidery. With digitizing precision down to 0.1mm, embroidery is perfect for premium branding elements, iconography, and structured embellishments.

For photo-realistic, multi-color precision on cotton.

Digital Printing (DTG)

Our DTG printers support full-color CMYK printing on 100% cotton garments, with soft hand feel and high ink absorption. Ideal for short-run capsule drops, artistic prints, and designs with a gradient glow or small text.

For high-gloss detail and stagewear shine.

Rhinestone Application

Rhinestones are hot-fixed with industrial precision (up to 1,500 pieces per garment) and can be mapped from vector artwork. Available in crystal, color, matte, and mixed finishes. Popular with high-end street labels and festival merch.

For authentically worn texture with batch consistency.

Vintage Acid Wash

Using controlled chemical abrasion and dye neutralization processes to create blurred, uneven tones that simulate decades of wear and tear. We have specific vintage wash references for each effect to ensure that the results for different batches of clothing are more than 90% consistent.

Purpose-built imperfection for urban authenticity.

Distressed Finishing

Includes hand-sanding, tearing, enzyme wash, overlock seam disruption, raw edges, and laser distress. Our in-house distressing experts control the degree and placement for scalable yet unique looks.

Artisan-level individuality, replicated at scale.

Painted Techniques

Splatter, brushed, and layered paint finishes — applied by hand or stencil-guided — allow each piece to feel expressive and brand-forward. Ideal for brands that thrive on wearable art and experimental drops.
