*Note: a minimum order of one roll applies for any stock fabric order (usually 50 yards and up); dye lot minimums vary based on the weight of the fabric but usually start at 1000 yards per color

Q. What is the lead time for custom produced fabric?
It depends on the base fabric and what needs to be done to the fabric, i.e. dyeing and finishing only or additional printing and/or custom put up all come into play. Typically we will run about 3 to 4 weeks on standard items and as long as 8 to 10 weeks on items that are not as typical. For imported fabrics, the lead time tends to be 10 to 12 weeks.
Q. Are we able to spread out shipments on custom fabrics?
Yes, we will produce and hold fabric for our customers up to 90 days after goods are ready to ship. We will need to know this in advance, however, as we will need to quote accordingly to allow for this.
Q. Can you dye to match Pantone Shades?
Yes. Our dye houses can dye to match any color required, on custom dye lot runs.
Q. Can you offer a less expensive alternative to what I am currently using?
Depending on the end product, we are more than happy to discuss alternative fabrics that you may want to consider. It is probably best that you call us to discuss.
Q. If I do not know the exact material that I am looking for, can MMI help?
If you have a small sample or spec sheet, we can figure out the exact product you want. It also helps to understand your intended use.
Q. Do you own and operate your own dye house?
No. We have established relationships with multiple dye and finishing houses all over the country. This gives us the flexibility to choose which dye house has the appropriate machinery to manufacture your product. We take all the necessary to steps to ensure that quality, price, and delivery are the best they can possibly be.
Q. What dictates the size of a dye lot?
As you can imagine, the quoted minimums are based upon load size per product. This is dictated by the dye house in order to achieve maximum
efficiency when manufacturing your product. We remind customers that this is
not an exact science. Final quantities are contingent upon raw material put up
(quantity) and working loss. Please let us know your requirements and we will be more than happy to help you.
Q. Can I get a specification or an MSDS Sheet?
Yes. We understand that many of your customers need to provide this documentation to their customers, so this information is available upon request.
