Fabric and contract manufacturing
I have my own factory. I want to buy material, or find a contract manufacturer.
Drop-stitch and coated fabric supply, plus OEM and ODM manufacturing for brands and integrators building their own products.
Buying fabric and building in-house is cheaper than importing finished goods, and fabric ships far more efficiently than inflated products. Industry MOQ for drop-stitch sits around 50 m² with some mills negotiating lower, base cloth is commonly 1000D × 1000D polyester, and commercially available chamber depth runs roughly 5 to 30 cm.
Typical use
- Inflatable product factories sourcing raw material
- Outdoor brands specifying fabric for boards and mats
- Defence integrators buying base material
- Design studios prototyping
- Brands seeking contract manufacture
Where you should buy elsewhere
The established drop-stitch mills — Zhejiang MSD and several others — have decades of production behind them and compete hard on commodity fabric. If you need standard material at the lowest price, they will beat us. Where a smaller supplier earns the order is non-standard specification, mixed small quantities, or contract manufacture where you need someone to build to your drawing rather than sell from a catalogue.
