Designer sketching a product

Need a tech pack designer for your clothing samples?

Our tech pack service is built for small and mid-sized businesses. Your designs are organized in one product development process and turn directly into samples.

  • One file defines everything

    Materials, cuts and processes are set out in a single professional design file. Any manufacturer can use it as the basis for development.

  • Fully custom tech packs

    For designs that do not follow standard layouts or measurements. Each file follows industry standards and holds your details and preferences.

  • From tech pack to sample

    Once the tech pack is complete, we make a sample you can hold. It is updated after sampling and before production.

How our tech pack designer creates your tech pack and sample

Five steps from your concept to bulk production.

Samples compared side by side
  1. 01

    Tell us your concept

    We discuss your design and its details. Any sketches or drawings help start the tech pack.

  2. 02

    Define design elements

    All details and specifications go into the tech pack. We help with technical details and revise it until everything is defined, up to 5 revision rounds.

  3. 03

    Approve dimensions

    Measurements must be well defined so we can make the cut sheet. If you release several sizes, each size is included.

  4. 04

    Make your sample

    Some adaptations only become clear once a sample exists. The tech pack is updated accordingly.

  5. 05

    Product manufacturing

    Production follows the final tech pack. Confirm the sample first. The minimum is 1,000 pieces per style and color. Sizes share the 1,000.

Tech pack designer questions

What brands ask before they start.

What exactly is a tech pack?

A garment tech pack is a professional design file with all the details of a clothing product. It covers the cut, materials, fabrics, sewing instructions, logos, care labels and sizing. A manufacturer needs it to start a sample or production. Everything should be documented, not left to interpretation.

If I have different designs, do I pay for an additional tech pack?

Yes. Each design needs a separate tech pack, but not each size or color. The price is $197 per design. Ask our support staff about options for an entire line. We open a separate project for each design.

Are my designs safe, and how do I get a copy of my tech pack?

We sign an NDA before you share your design. The designs are your property and the design files are under your name. We use them only for your projects. You receive tech packs as PDF documents. Cut sheets can be arranged in other formats.

How long until I receive my tech pack after I sign up?

Usually 5 to 7 days. It depends on payment and on when we receive your reference files and instructions. We may have questions, and a timely reply speeds things up.

Can I take the tech pack to a different manufacturer, or send you one I already have?

Yes to both. Our tech packs can be used with other manufacturers. If you send us your own, our support staff checks that it is complete. Some updates or open questions may need to be resolved.
