Garment finishing for a retail ready look

Why Garment Finishing Matters

After your garments have been printed, a few finishing touches can lift them from promotional clothing to products that look and feel like they came from a high street store. Whether you are launching a clothing brand, selling merchandise online or supplying a retailer, finishing gives your customers a better first impression and makes your stock easier to manage.

Our team has over 25 years of experience printing and finishing clothing, and with print houses around the UK, including London, we handle relabelling, tagging and packing alongside the printing itself, so your t-shirts, hoodies and sweatshirts arrive printed, labelled and packed in one go.

From Artwork to Delivery

Building Your Own Clothing Brand

Relabelling is one of the simplest ways to turn quality blank garments into your own private label clothing range. We take out the maker's label and replace it with a printed neck label or a sewn in woven label in your name, then add hem labels, swing tags and packaging to match. Our in depth guide to t-shirt relabelling explains the difference between sewn in and printed labels, and our list of clothing brands worth personalising will help you choose the right blanks. We also work with creators on merchandise for influencers.

Ready for Retail and Fulfilment

If your garments are heading to a fulfilment house or an online store, folded and bagged stock with barcode or SKU stickers can be received and picked straight away, saving you time and handling. Eco friendly bags are available if you want to keep packaging sustainable.

Minimum Order and Turnaround

Garment finishing follows the minimum for the print method you choose: 8 units per design for DTG, DTF and embroidery, and 20 units for screen printing. Because every label, tag and bag is added by hand after printing, finishing adds some time to our standard turnaround of six to seven business days. Your Account Manager will confirm your delivery date when you order, and for large runs our bulk printing team can plan finishing into the schedule from the start.

Pair Finishing with the Right Print

Finishing can be added to garments decorated with any of our techniques, from screen printing and embroidery to Direct to Garment and Direct to Film. Compare every option on our printing techniques page, or browse our full range of personalised clothing.
