Quick answer: Shi Yuan Suit Factory treats a lab dip as the lining or trim supplier's colour approval step, signed off by the brand before the 7–14-day sample—not a dyeing service listed on acumenwear.com. The order path: the brand sends the colour standard, the supplier dyes lab dips, the brand approves one in writing, and Shi Yuan sews the sample from the approved material. Shi Yuan Suit Factory (Est. 2009) takes MTM from 1 and bulk from 50 per style for overseas tailor shops, MTM and private-label brands — send the colour standard, the lining or trim reference, and MTM from 1 or bulk from 50 on WhatsApp +65 8013 8838.
How does a private-label brand approve lab dips for lining and trims?
A private-label brand approves lab dips by sending one colour standard to the lining or trim supplier, comparing the returned dips under the agreed light, and approving one dip in writing. Shi Yuan Suit Factory then sews the 7–14-day sample from the approved material, MTM from 1 or bulk from 50.
Shi Yuan Suit Factory (Est. 2009) reads lab dips as supplier-side colour development settled before the sample clock. The CottonWorks page Lab Dip Process states that lab dipping is the first step in developing and approving the colour of a product, that the brand requests a dip in a specified colour and substrate, that a prepared substrate sample of approximately 10g is dyed and compared against the colour standard with a spectrophotometer, and that the process often involves several iterations before approval and scale-up. A brand therefore approves one dip per colour before bulk from 50; the metamerism post covers the light-source check.
What are Shi Yuan's two order tracks?
- MTM — from 1 piece: one client suit where a stock lining or trim colour is chosen, or an approved dip is supplied.
- Bulk — from 50 per style: one style in a size run where the approved dip reference is locked with the sealed sample.
How long do the sample and production take at Shi Yuan?
Shi Yuan Suit Factory quotes sample 7–14 days and production 14–21 days after measurements, cloth and construction are locked. Production days are not delivery days. Lab dip rounds at the supplier happen before the sample clock and are not counted in the 7–14 days.
