Approve the fit, fabric and finish before we cut bulk

Uniform Sampling and Prototype Development in Faisalabad

Uniform Sampling and Prototype Development in Faisalabad is how A.G. Fabrics turns your uniform idea into a production-ready sample you can hold, wear and approve. We handle pattern drafting, fabric sourcing, stitching and logo application under one roof, so schools, hospitals, factories and security companies across Punjab can sign off on fit and colour before a single bulk roll is cut. Since 1996 we have built samples for buyers in Faisalabad and export markets, and every prototype is made on the same machines that will run your production order.

What Uniform Sampling and Prototype Development in Faisalabad Involves

Uniform Sampling and Prototype Development in Faisalabad is the stage where your uniform stops being a sketch and becomes a stitched garment you can measure, wash and wear-test. We start with your tech pack or a plain conversation, draft a pattern, source the right fabric, and stitch a sample in your exact size range. You get a physical prototype with the correct collar, pocket placement, seam finish, embroidery and trims. Nothing goes to bulk cutting until you sign off on that sample.

Faisalabad buyers usually come to us with a real deadline: a new school session, a hospital expansion, a security contract that starts in six weeks. A sample made locally means you can check colour against your brand guide, test fabric weight in Faisalabad's 45°C June heat, and confirm sizing on actual staff instead of guessing from a size chart. We also produce counter samples and size sets, so your approval covers the full range from small to 4XL rather than one middle size.

What's included

What Our Uniform Sampling Service Includes

Every sampling job covers pattern, fabric, stitching and logo work as standard. Bulk production, warehousing and export shipping are quoted separately once you approve the prototype.

✓

Pattern Drafting and Grading

We draft the base pattern from your brief or reference garment, then grade it across your full size range from small to 4XL. Every seam allowance, pocket position and trim placement is marked on the pattern card for repeatability.

✓

Fabric and Trim Sourcing

We source fabric from Faisalabad mills or our own stock and match thread, buttons, zips, interlining and reflective tape to your spec. You approve the fabric swatch and trim card before stitching begins.

✓

Prototype Stitching

One full garment is stitched on the same industrial machines that will run your bulk order. Turnaround is 3 to 5 working days for standard uniforms, longer for certified FR or high-visibility workwear.

✓

Logo Application

Your logo is embroidered, screen printed or heat transferred onto the prototype in the approved position and size. We digitise the embroidery file once and reuse it across bulk, keeping every logo identical.

✓

Fit and Wash Testing

You wear-test the prototype and wash it to check shrinkage, colour fastness and seam strength. We record the results and adjust the pattern or fabric spec before bulk production is confirmed.

✓

Spec Sheet and Sealed Reference

Each approved prototype ships with a spec sheet covering fabric composition, GSM, measurements and trims. We seal and store a reference copy at our Faisalabad unit so repeat orders match the original exactly.

How it works

How Our Sampling Process Works

01

Brief and Tech Pack

We sit with you or take your call, then write down the garment type, size range, fabric preference, colour codes and logo files. If you have a tech pack, we work from it. If you only have a reference garment, we measure it point by point and build the spec from there. This step takes one working day.

02

Pattern Drafting

Our pattern master drafts the block for your size range, grades it from small to 4XL, and marks seam allowances, pocket positions and trim placements. You get a paper pattern review before any fabric is cut. Grading errors caught here cost nothing to fix.

03

Fabric and Trim Sourcing

We pull fabric from our own stock or source it from Faisalabad mills, then match thread, buttons, zips, reflective tape and interlining to your spec. You approve the fabric swatch and the trim card before stitching starts. GSM, weave and shrinkage are recorded on the sample tag.

04

Sample Stitching

One full prototype is stitched on the same machines that will run your bulk order, with your logo embroidered or printed in position. Turnaround is 3 to 5 working days for a standard garment, longer for flame-resistant or high-visibility workwear that needs certified trims.

05

Review and Sign-Off

You inspect the prototype, wear-test it, and send back written comments. We make revisions and re-submit until you approve. Once signed off, the approved sample becomes the sealed reference for bulk production, and we keep it on file for repeat orders.

Tools & methods

Tools and Methods We Use

Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.

Industrial Single-Needle Lockstitch Machines

Used for main seams, topstitching and logo panel attachment on prototype garments. These are the same machines that run bulk production, so the sample stitch matches the final uniform.

Overlock and Flatlock Machines

Used for edge finishing and stretch seams on knit and poly-cotton uniforms. Flatlock is standard for sportswear-style uniforms and moisture-wicking fabrics.

Multi-Head Embroidery Machines

Used to embroider logos, name monograms and badges onto prototypes. The digitised file from the sample is reused across bulk, keeping every logo identical.

Screen Printing Carousel

Used for printed logos, numbers and back graphics on prototype garments. We test ink on the actual fabric to confirm colour fastness before bulk printing.

Heat Transfer Press

Used for heat transfer printing and reflective tape application on high-visibility and sportswear prototypes. Temperature and pressure are recorded for repeatability.

Pattern Grading Software

Used to grade the base pattern across the full size range from small to 4XL. Grading rules are stored so repeat orders use the same block.

Fabric GSM Cutter and Shrinkage Test Kit

Used to verify fabric weight and measure shrinkage after wash testing. Results are recorded on the sample spec sheet for buyer approval.

Real results

Before and after.

Security Firm: 400 Uniforms, First-Time Fit

Before

A Faisalabad security company had a new contract starting in six weeks and no existing pattern. Their previous supplier had delivered uniforms with inconsistent sizing, and guards were refusing to wear them on site.

After

We sampled the shirt, trouser and jacket in nine working days, including epaulettes and badges. The guards wear-tested the prototype, and the approved sample became the sealed reference for 400 bulk uniforms. Fit was consistent across all sizes.

Hospital: 600 Scrub Sets in Cooler Fabric

Before

A private hospital on Jaranwala Road had nursing staff complaining that their scrubs were too heavy for Faisalabad summers. Fabric pilled after a few washes and colours faded unevenly across the batch.

After

We stitched prototypes in two poly-cotton blends and let the hospital wash-test both. They chose the lighter GSM option, and we produced 600 sets. Six months on, colour has held and fit is consistent across all sizes.

German Distributor: FR Coveralls Approved First Round

Before

A European workwear distributor needed flame-resistant coverall samples for a client's safety approval. Previous samples from another supplier had incorrect reflective tape placement and no shrinkage data.

After

We stitched the prototype in certified FR fabric with correctly placed reflective tape, and shipped it with a spec sheet covering composition, GSM and shrinkage. The client approved on the first round, and bulk production matched the sealed sample.

Problems we solve

Problems Our Sampling Service Solves

Most bulk uniform failures trace back to a skipped or rushed sampling stage. Here are the four problems Faisalabad buyers bring to us most often, and how we fix them.

Ask a pro →
01

Bulk order arrives with wrong fit across sizes

We grade the pattern across your full size range and stitch a size set for approval. You confirm small through 4XL before bulk cutting, so every size fits the way the sample does. Corrections happen on paper, not on finished garments.

↗
02

Fabric fails in Faisalabad summer heat

We stitch your prototype in the actual fabric you will buy and let you wear-test it. If the GSM is too high or the blend traps heat, we switch to a lighter poly-cotton or moisture-wicking option before bulk. You approve comfort, not just appearance.

↗
03

Logo colour and placement look wrong on finished garments

Your prototype carries the real logo in the real position using the actual thread and ink. You approve chest placement, back print and sleeve badge on a finished garment, and we lock the embroidery file for bulk.

↗
04

Bulk invoice comes in above the original quote

Sampling measures exactly how much fabric, thread and labour each uniform consumes. We convert that into a firm per-piece price before you commit to bulk, so your budget holds and there are no surprise line items.

What Uniform Sampling Costs

PKR 4,500 - PKR 18,000 per prototype, depending on garment, fabric and logo work

Sampling is priced per prototype, not per bulk order. In 2026, a single uniform prototype in Faisalabad runs PKR 4,500 to PKR 18,000 depending on garment complexity, fabric and logo work. A basic cotton shirt sits at the low end; flame-resistant coveralls or high-visibility jackets with certified reflective tape sit at the top. Sampling charges are usually credited against your bulk order once it is confirmed. We quote a firm price and a delivery date before we start, so there are no mid-project surprises.

A prototype costs a fraction of a bulk order and catches fit, fabric and logo problems before they repeat across thousands of pieces. Most buyers recover the sampling cost in the first bulk run through avoided rework and accurate per-piece pricing.

01Garment Complexity

A simple shirt or trouser sample costs less than a multi-panel jacket or coverall with linings, reinforced knees and tool pockets. Each additional panel, pocket or trim adds cutting and stitching time to the prototype.

03Logo and Branding Work

Embroidery digitising, screen printing setup and heat transfer film all add a one-time cost to the prototype. Once the file is digitised, bulk logo application is priced per piece, not per setup.

04Size Range and Grading

Sampling one size is cheaper than producing a full size set from small to 4XL. Buyers who need to approve fit across the full range should budget for a size set rather than a single sample.

What Our Sampling Clients Say

★★★★★
“We needed 400 security uniforms for a new contract and had no pattern. A.G. Fabrics sampled the shirt, trouser and jacket in nine days, including epaulettes and badges. The fit on our guards was right first time, and the bulk order matched the sample exactly. That saved us a full re-cut.”

★★★★★
“We ordered flame-resistant coverall samples from A.G. Fabrics for a European client. The prototype arrived with full spec sheet, GSM and shrinkage data, and the certified reflective tape was correctly placed. Bulk production matched the sealed sample, and we have reordered twice since.”

A single uniform prototype in Faisalabad costs PKR 4,500 to PKR 18,000 in 2026, depending on garment complexity, fabric and logo work. A basic cotton shirt sample sits at the low end; flame-resistant coveralls or high-visibility jackets with certified reflective tape sit at the top. Sampling charges are usually credited against your bulk order once it is confirmed.

Most prototypes take 7 to 14 working days from approved brief to delivered sample. Pattern drafting and fabric sourcing take 2 to 4 days, stitching takes 3 to 5 days, and revision rounds add 2 to 3 days each. Flame-resistant and high-visibility workwear take longer because certified trims have to be sourced and matched.

Yes. Send us a photo, a sketch or a reference garment and we will measure it point by point, draft a pattern and stitch a matching prototype. We record every measurement, seam type and trim so the sample is reproducible. Most buyers who start from a reference garment get an accurate prototype on the first or second round.

We courier approved prototypes to buyers in the UK, Germany, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Australia and across Southeast Asia. Each export sample ships with a spec sheet, fabric composition, GSM and shrinkage data, plus a sealed reference copy kept at our Faisalabad unit so repeat orders match exactly.
