Garment Technical Services, from Concept to Bulk Production
Technical garment services from first idea to repeatable bulk production, backed by Ardmel’s own machines, seam tapes, adhesives, testing and garment manufacturing.
What We Do for Apparel Brands and Factories
Pick the service that matches where your garment is today. Each one links to its own page with the detail. You work with one team across development, bonding and seam sealing, testing, machines and training. The same team selects seam tapes, bonding films and adhesives for your fabric, and can take the approved style into bulk production at our own facility in the Biyagama Export Processing Zone, Sri Lanka.
Our core technologies each have their own page: seam sealing, garment bonding, ultrasonic bonding, and adhesive and tape testing.
Garment Product Development
We take your idea from concept to a working prototype. That means bonding mock-ups to prove a stitch-free construction, material and tape selection for your fabric and end use, and a tech pack updated with the bonding and taping details a factory needs to quote and produce it.
- Concept Design & Development
Transforming garment ideas into engineered concepts through collaborative design.
- Bonding Mock-ups
Creating precise bonded mock-ups to validate stitchless garment construction.
- Material Selection Support
Guiding selection of high-performance materials for durability and comfort.
- Tech Pack Enhancement
Enhancing tech packs with bonding specifications and construction details.
- Prototype Development
Developing functional prototypes using bonding, testing, and refinement.
Technical Solutions for Garment Production
For factories adding bonding or seam sealing, or trying to get it right. We develop the bonding process, test adhesive and fabric compatibility, set up and tune the machines, and stay involved when something goes wrong on the line, until production runs steadily.
- Bonding Process Development
Developing customized bonding processes for durable, seamless garment construction.
- Adhesive & Material Compatibility Testing
Testing adhesives and materials for optimal bonding strength.
- Machine Setup & Process Optimization
Setting up machines and optimizing processes for efficiency.
- Technical Troubleshooting & Support
Providing troubleshooting support for bonding machines and processes.
- Production Implementation Guidance
Guiding seamless production implementation, machinery integration, and quality assurance.
Sample-to-Bulk Transformation
An approved sample is only half the job. We refine fit, patterns and construction for bulk, recommend fabrics and trims that hold up in production, and test seam strength, bond durability and wash performance so the bulk order matches the sample you signed off.
- Fit Analysis & Refinement
- Material & Trim Recommendation
Selecting the right fabric, trims, tapes, adhesives and components.
- Construction Engineering Advice
- CAD Pattern Optimization
Improving patterns for bonding, taping and seam sealing performance
- Prototype Testing
