GARMENT FINISHING FAQ

What is garment finishing?

Garment finishing refers to the final production processes after printing or embroidery is completed. This includes all the finishing touches to the products that you would need, such as relabelling, printed or woven label manufacturing, polybagging, and hem labels.

Our professional garment finishing team in London ensures your clothing arrives looking professional or distribution-ready.

Do you offer custom labels and relabelling?

Yes. We offer printed and woven labels as well as relabelling for brands seeking for a fully customised finish. Relabelling removes manufacturer branding and replaces it with your own either on the inside collar, sleeve or base.

Can you prepare garments for retail or e-commerce?

We provide polybagging and can apply barcodes or size stickers to the outside of the bags for retail use.

When you contact our team, just explain your situation and we will add the finishing touches that you desire on your order.

Why is garment finishing important for clothing brands?

Garment finishing elevates perception. It transforms printed apparel into a considered product. From packaging to labelling, it reinforces brand identity and professionalism.

Do you handle bulk finishing for company merchandise or brand launches?

Yes. For companies and brands launching merchandise at scale, coordinated garment finishing ensures consistency across every garment from label placement to packaging detail.
