4) FAQs
Q1: Which fabric is best for logo embroidery?
Short plush or tight-weave panels produce clean stitches; velvet works with careful backing. Weβll test logo sizes during sampling.
Q2: Can eco fabrics match our exact brand color?
Yes. rPET fabrics support Pantone targets; weβll confirm with lab dips and colorfastness tests before bulk.
Q3: Will faux fur shed on display?
We specify low-shed piles and run lint/abrasion checks. Proper brushing and packing keep bears photo-ready on arrival.
Q4: Can one collection mix multiple fabrics?
Absolutelyβe.g., short plush bodies with velvet outfits. Weβll align MOQs by fabric to keep costs predictable.
