Q2. Who are you? A manufacturer, a dealer (merchandiser), or what?
We are a shoestring and webbing strap manufacturer with our own factories and warehouses based in Taiwan. We currently have two development and manufacturing plants in our founding city, Changhua County. We have many experiences working with both trading wholesalers (e.g., shoe factories or clothing manufacturers) and endpoint retailers such as brand designers. So, whatever your background, come share with us your new product ideas and let us find feasible solutions together!
Q3. Where are your products made?
Taiwan! Our products of top quality are all proudly home-made in Taiwan. Rather than shipping them in from elsewhere the labor and materials are cheap, we strive to fulfill our mission to provide more decently-paid job opportunities to the local people.
Q4. Do you hold any certification?
Yes, all our textile materials passed the STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®. In addition, for ear loops and strings for medical purposes, they've passed the test for harmful substances and dye from INTERTEK.
Q5. How fast are my orders?
Normally, for sample orders of cords that require NO additional processing (e.g., waxing, lace-tipping), it takes as fast as 2-3 working days to be delivered, and 7-10 working days for standard orders less than 5,000 yards (approx. 15,000 feet). For other orders requiring customization such as heat transfer printing, dyeing, and deep cleaning, we'll be able to deliver your ordered samples in as fast as 7-10 working days and 18-21 days for orders of larger quantity. We'll also give you a head notice of the approximate delivery time once you place your order. If any accident, such as material shortage, shipping disruption, or other natural events, occur to delay your delivery, we'll make sure to contact and notify you as soon as possible.
Q6. What are the accepted forms of payment?
We accept a variety of payment options, including wire transfer and credit cards. The following payment methods are available for use:
- Credit cards: only for orders less than US$2,500 (€2,000)
- Wire transfer:
- orders ≤ USD3,000 (€2,500) (CIF 60% T/T in advance and balance paid before shipment)
- orders ≥ USD3,001 (€2,500) (FOB 40% T/T in advance and balance paid before shipment)
Q7. What are the accepted terms of trade?
We currently accept Freight on Board (FOB) and Cost, Insurance, and Freight (CIF).
