Clothing Manufacturing Process at Ninghow

At Ninghow, we believe that high-quality apparel starts with a well-structured manufacturing process. From selecting premium fabrics to precision cutting, advanced sewing, and strict quality control, every step is designed to ensure excellence. Whether you’re sourcing custom polo shirts, hoodies, or team uniforms, our expertise guarantees consistency, durability, and style.

1. Fabric Sourcing & Material Selection

The foundation of great clothing lies in the fabric. We source from trusted suppliers who provide a wide range of textiles: cotton, polyester, blends, and eco-friendly options such as organic cotton and recycled polyester.

For brands focusing on sustainable production, we offer detailed guidance in our article: Sustainable Fabrics in Modern Clothing Production.

2. Pattern Making & Sample Development

Every garment starts with a precise pattern. Using advanced CAD software, our team transforms sketches and design concepts into accurate patterns. We then develop samples for fitting and client approval before moving into bulk production.

3. Fabric Cutting & Preparation

Once fabrics are approved, they go through a cutting process using both automatic cutting machines and skilled manual cutters. This ensures precision, reduces waste, and optimizes efficiency.

4. Sewing & Assembly

Our sewing department is equipped with flatlock, overlock, and coverstitch machines to guarantee strength and comfort. Different garments require different stitching methods—for example, activewear needs durable flatlock seams, while polos rely on reinforced collars.
