From cotton to carton
8 stages, one team. Scroll through how a garment is made.
-
Cotton and yarn
Every garment starts with the yarn: its fibre, count and quality decide how the fabric will feel and wear.
-
Knitting
Circular knitting machines turn yarn into tubes of fabric in the structure the garment needs: jersey, pique, fleece or rib.
-
Fabric processing
Fabric is dyed, finished and checked for weight (GSM), shade and shrinkage before it reaches the cutting table.
-
Cutting
Layers of fabric are laid, marked to the pattern and cut into panels for every size in the order.
-
Stitching
Panels are joined on overlock, flatlock and single-needle machines into finished garments.
-
Printing and embroidery
Logos and artwork are screen-printed, embroidered or heat-transferred, subject to the method that suits the design.
-
Quality checks
Garments are measured and inspected against the approved sample, then ironed, folded and tagged.
-
Packing and dispatch
Orders are packed in cartons to the agreed method and dispatched to your address or port.

How to Choose a Corporate Uniform Manufacturer: 12 Questions to Ask Before You Place a Bulk Order
To choose a corporate uniform manufacturer, judge them on process, not just price.

Screen Printing vs DTF vs DTG vs Embroidery: Which Is Best for Custom T-Shirts?
Screen printing is ideal for bulk T-shirt orders with simple designs, while DTF suits detailed artwork and multiple fabric types.

The best method depends on your garment, artwork, quantity, budget and intended use. At Coral Reef Cottons, we help businesses and clothing brands select suitable decoration methods for their custom apparel requirements.
