Buyer questions

Are you a drop-in replacement for a Bali swim factory?

We are a Dongguan OEM/ODM alternative with our own QC and fabric gates — not a franchise of any Bali factory. Brands compare us on PPS discipline, hand matching and MOQ.

Do you support recycled swim programmes?

Yes via mill-partner GRS paths under NDA when the brief requires recycled nylon/spandex. We do not over-claim packaging-only licences as fabric scope.
