Checklist

Product and distribution inputs to collect

  • Use case
  • Artwork ownership
  • Quantity profile
  • Rub and abrasion
  • Target quantity and SKU allocation
  • Approval sample and decision owner
  • Required date and Mainland China delivery point
  • Change and repeat-order record

Structural decision

Four checks before freezing the structure

01

Use case

Separate retail display, e-commerce delivery, gifting, storage and transport needs because they create different performance priorities.

02

Artwork ownership

Freeze approved copy, logos, legal marks, languages and version responsibility before output; production checks do not replace content approval.

03

Quantity profile

Confirm launch quantity, repeat-order forecast, SKU count and allocation by version so the production route can be compared fairly.

04

Rub and abrasion

Set dry or wet rub method, load, cycles and acceptance appearance for the actual ink, coating and delivery environment.

Execution method

Four actions from RFQ to production

Measure the packed product

Use production-representative product dimensions, weight and fragile areas.

Prototype the structure

Test fit, opening, closing, assembly and packing before visual artwork is final.

Test the distribution route

Include stacking, handling, e-commerce or retail conditions that the pack will face.

Release the matched dieline

Link the final geometry, material and approved physical sample as one standard.

FAQ

Questions buyers often ask

Should a garment label be woven or printed?

Woven labels provide a textile construction and durable yarn detail, while printed labels can handle fine changing content; choose by feel, artwork, volume and use.

What should be written in the specification?

At minimum, define Use case, Artwork ownership, Quantity profile, Rub and abrasion, then link quantity, sample, timing, inspection and the approved revision.

Is a physical sample needed?

A decision involving structure, material, colour, finish, assembly or use performance normally needs a physical sample matched to that question; a screen proof cannot approve everything.

Can the previous standard be reused for a repeat order?

Reuse a controlled standard only when files, material, structure, supply chain and use conditions remain unchanged. Record every change and decide whether resampling or reapproval is required.
