Fabric sourcing · UAE
The right fabric. For the right purpose.
Thoughtful fabric sourcing for clothing brands, tailors and garment manufacturers.
At PN & Co Global, we help businesses identify and source fabrics suited to their products, specifications and commercial requirements.
From cotton shirting and knitted fabrics to performance and specialised requirements, our approach begins with understanding what you need: how the fabric should look, feel and perform, and the quantities and timelines involved.
Drawing on the experience gained through developing our own apparel brand, Hunridge, we bring a practical understanding of fabric selection and sourcing to every enquiry.
Sourcing with purpose.
Good fabric sourcing involves more than finding a material that looks right. It requires an understanding of composition, construction, performance, availability and cost. We support customers through three core services.
Sourcing to specification
Finding fabrics that meet your requirements.
Whether you have a detailed technical specification, an existing fabric sample or simply an idea of the material you need, we help explore suitable sourcing options.
Our evaluation considers fibre composition, construction, weight, texture, colour, finishing, minimum order quantities and commercial availability, to identify materials that match both your product expectations and practical sourcing requirements.
Fabric swatches & sampling
Make informed decisions before committing.
The appearance and feel of a fabric are difficult to judge from photographs alone. Where available, we coordinate swatches and sample lengths so you can assess colour, texture, hand feel, drape and suitability before proceeding with a larger order.
For technical performance requirements, independent testing may also be appropriate.
Fabric consultation
Understanding the material behind the product.
Choosing between fabrics often involves trade-offs. A lighter material may offer greater breathability, while a denser construction may give a more structured appearance. Fibres, weaves and finishes also influence comfort, durability and garment care.
We help you understand these characteristics and compare the options against your intended use, guided by material specifications, sourcing feasibility and the practical needs of the finished product.
Materials for different applications.
We help businesses explore sourcing options across a range of fabric categories, subject to supplier availability and individual requirements.
Cotton shirting fabrics
Woven cotton fabrics for formal, business and casual shirts, including poplin, twill, Oxford and other constructions.
Knitted fabrics
Cotton piqué, jersey and other knitted materials for polo shirts, T-shirts and casual apparel.
Performance & stretch fabrics
Nylon and polyester stretch, PBT, T800 and Sorona blends and technical meshes for activewear, travel and tailored-performance garments.
Cotton & blended fabrics
Cotton and other fibres, including viscose, modal and bamboo blends, selected for the right balance of comfort, appearance, performance and cost.
Specialised requirements
Specific fibre compositions, weights, textures or finishes for customers with defined product requirements.
Fabric availability, minimum order quantities, colour options and sampling arrangements depend on the selected material and supplier.
From requirement to sourcing.
Our process keeps expectations clear and helps you make informed decisions at each stage.
- i
Tell us what you need
Share the intended product, preferred fabric, composition, weight, colour, quantity and target timeline. If you don't have a complete specification, a photograph, reference fabric or existing garment is a useful starting point.
- ii
Define the specification
We review your requirements, discuss any missing details and identify the characteristics that matter most for the intended application, so there is a clear sourcing brief before we approach suppliers.
- iii
Explore suitable options
We investigate available fabrics and present the relevant information, which may include specifications, indicative pricing, minimum order quantities and estimated lead times, explaining the differences between alternatives where helpful.
- iv
Review samples
Subject to availability, swatches or sample lengths can be arranged so you can assess the material before deciding whether to proceed.
- v
Confirm & coordinate
Once the fabric and commercial terms are agreed, we coordinate the sourcing process and keep you updated on the order and delivery within the agreed scope of service.

A considered approach to fabric sourcing.
Our sourcing approach has developed alongside the creation of Hunridge, our own men's apparel brand. That experience has reinforced the importance of understanding fabrics beyond their appearance: the role of construction, finishing, consistency, supplier communication and commercial feasibility in every sourcing decision.
Specification before selection
Understanding the technical and practical requirements before recommending a material.
Clarity in communication
Straightforward information about available options, specifications and commercial considerations.
Long-term relationships
Professionalism in every enquiry, and trust built through consistent business practice.
Good sourcing begins with the right questions, not simply the lowest quotation.
Before you enquire.
- Minimum order quantities
- Minimum quantities vary by fabric type, supplier, colour and production requirements. We clarify them when reviewing the available options.
- Sampling
- Swatches and sample lengths may be available depending on the material and supplier. Any sampling costs and arrangements are confirmed before proceeding.
- Lead times
- Sourcing, sampling and bulk supply timelines depend on fabric availability, specifications, order quantities and supplier arrangements.
- Delivery
- Delivery options and freight arrangements are discussed according to the sourcing location, order requirements and destination.
- Technical specifications
- Please share detailed specifications where available, including fibre composition, GSM, construction, width, colour and finishing requirements.
