Looking for UK Clothing Manufacturers?
Hawthorn is one of the UK’s leading clothing manufacturers, producing garments of the highest quality. We offer a full scale manufacturing solution, proudly supporting fashion startups, small clothing brands, SMEs and emerging designers.
Manufacturing process – how it works
Every garment we produce is custom made to the requirements of the customer, so we have developed a standard process which is applied to all orders. Other UK based clothing manufacturers may only work from tech packs, but we can help get designs production ready, guiding you through each step.
Pre production
The process begins with your idea. We guide you through the stages of making your concept a reality.
Pattern development
Patterns for your clothing are developed using custom dimensions or sizing references.
Fabric sourcing
Fabric is sourced or produced per order to meet your requirements for composition, handfeel and budget.
Prototypes & sampling
Each order includes a prototype for approval, allowing you to refine your design before we commence bulk manufacture.
Bulk manufacturing
Clothing manufacturing takes place on our production line, with your approved specifications forming the basis for bulk.
Quality check
We implement a 4 stage quality check process, with each item checked by an operative to identify and rectify any rare defects.
