Common questions from sellers
Can one certificate cover all colors?
Not always. It depends on certificate scope, material mix, dyeing process and lab confirmation.
Do trims matter?
Yes. Buttons, zippers, threads, prints and coatings may affect the final assessment.
Do I need testing if a supplier has a certificate?
It depends on whether the supplier certificate covers your final product and selling claim.
