Can MinCharm match a specific fabric composition and GSM?
Yes. MinCharm can review and source fabrics according to a target fiber composition and fabric weight or GSM.
Example Requests
- 100% cotton, 260 GSM
- 80% cotton and 20% polyester, 350 GSM
- 95% cotton and 5% elastane, 220 GSM
- Another confirmed fiber blend and target weight
Information to Review the Requirement
- Required fiber composition and percentage
- Target GSM
- Acceptable GSM tolerance, if specified
- Knitted or woven fabric construction
- Stretch and recovery requirements
- Surface texture and handfeel
- Brushed, washed, coated, or other finishing requirements
- Required color
- Shrinkage or other relevant performance requirements
- Reference swatch or existing garment, if available
- Estimated production quantity
Composition and GSM are important, but they do not fully define a fabric. Two fabrics with the same composition and GSM may still differ because of yarn type, knitting or weaving structure, density, finishing, brushing, washing, stretch, and other production variables.
Review Available Options
MinCharm reviews suitable mill or supplier options and presents materials for evaluation against the confirmed requirement.
Confirm Before Bulk
The selected fabric should be confirmed through a swatch, fabric cutting, sample yardage, garment sample, or other agreed approval method before bulk production.
If an exact composition and target GSM are not available, any proposed alternative and its differences should be explained and approved before use.
GSM tolerance. A fabric can have an acceptable production tolerance rather than remaining at one exact value across every part of every roll. The applicable tolerance and testing method should be confirmed according to the buyer's requirements.
Formal verification. If required, the relevant supplier documentation, test method, testing party, material scope, and acceptance criteria should be agreed before production.
