Techpack

A tech pack, short for "technical package," is a comprehensive document that provides detailed information and instructions for the production of a garment. It serves as a communication tool between designers, manufacturers, and other stakeholders involved in the garment production process.

A well-prepared tech pack contains all the necessary specifications and guidelines to ensure that the final product matches the designer's vision accurately and maintains consistent quality. 

Key components of a tech pack typically include: 

  • Design Illustration: Detailed sketches or digital renderings of the front, back, and sides of the garment, along with close-ups of specific design elements. 

  • Technical Drawings: Technical drawings that show measurements, proportions, and specifications of the garment. These drawings help pattern makers and manufacturers understand the design's structure. 

  • Material and Fabric Information: Information about the materials and fabrics to be used, including fabric composition, weight, colour, and any required certifications. 

  • Colour Palette: Detailed colour references using standardised colour codes, such as Pantone numbers, to ensure accurate colour matching during production. 

  • Bill of Materials (BOM): A list of all the components needed to construct the garment, including zippers, buttons, labels, trims, and more. 

  • Grading and Sizing: Specifications for various sizes and how the garment's measurements should change accordingly. 

  • Construction Details: Specific construction methods, seam placements, stitching techniques, and other technical information needed to assemble the garment correctly. 

  • Labels and Packaging: Placement and design of labels, tags, and packaging instructions. 

We acknowledge the frustrations that arise from the difficulty of effectively translating your concepts into a single, well-structured professional document. This challenge can result in delays and errors during the sample phase, as manufacturers may encounter challenges in fully comprehending and meeting the precise requirements for your garment specifications. As a consequence, this can lead to a substantial expenditure of both time and resources for your brand.
