Explore our elite selection of customizable apparel products engineered with advanced textile technologies, raw eco-material bases, and precision craftsmanship.
Established in the milestone year of 2000, Ningbo Jinmao Import & Export Co., Ltd. has developed into a premier force in China's apparel export sector. Over 24 years of strategic evolution and adaptation, our corporation has built a strong international presence, recording an annual turnover exceeding thirty million U.S. dollars ($30,000,000+).
Positioned as an industry-leading garment manufacturing and supply firm in Ningbo, we maintain strict environmental compliance and quality protocols. Our facilities operate under dual international standard certifications: ISO9001:2015 (Quality Management System) and ISO14001:2015 (Environmental Management System). Backed by a dedicated technical corporate office of over 50 professionals, we cater to demanding fashion segments across men's, women's, and children's knitwear and lightweight woven apparel.
The pique knit, historically identified by its textured geometric weave, has transitioned from classic athletic clothing to a major driver in modern smart-casual fashion. The honeycomb, waffle, and bird's-eye variations provide natural moisture dispersion and structural stability, allowing designers to bridge the gap between technical sportswear and formal corporate wear.
As consumer demand shifts towards eco-conscious sourcing, global retailers are actively seeking manufacturers that combine raw material security with social compliance. China's mature textile hubs, like Zhejiang, provide raw material access, vertically integrated fabric mills, and advanced printing/dyeing infrastructure, ensuring predictable lead times and reliable quality.
Modern workplaces are moving away from traditional woven shirts in favor of pique-knit polos. This structural shift allows men to dress professionally without sacrificing comfort, driving year-round B2B volume for brands globally, especially in North American, European, and Australian corporate uniform markets.
The pique shirt manufacturing sector is undergoing an environmental and functional transformation. Modern brands prioritize sustainable fibers that lower carbon footprints while maintaining fabric strength. Material science developments have integrated Organic Cotton, Lenzing Modal, BCI Cotton, and Recycled Polyester (GRS-certified) directly into high-speed circular knitting pipelines.
"Sustainable production is no longer just a compliance requirement—it is a core market differentiator. Brands that utilize OEKO-TEX certified fabrics and trace their supply chains see higher consumer engagement and improved brand equity."
Additionally, finishing processes have progressed beyond basic softeners. Modern pique fabrics feature permanent moisture-wicking, anti-pilling, antimicrobial, and UV-blocking finishes. This functional integration ensures the garments look presentable even after repeated laundering cycles in commercial settings.
We mitigate typical supply chain risks through a structured, stage-gated development protocol. This ensures that custom colors, embroidery, fits, and fabrication requirements align perfectly with brand specifications.
Once the initial design specifications are confirmed, our sample room constructs a fit sample. Utilizing 20-year veteran pattern makers, this prototype matches the client's specifications, including style lines and measurements, allowing brands to confirm pattern accuracy prior to mass fabric allocation.
This phase secures the bulk production parameters. We evaluate color standards against Pantone references via spectrophotometer readings, approving lab dips, print strikes, embroidery strike-offs, and customized packaging trims (such as hangtags, polybags, and carton packing labels).
Before cutting the bulk fabric, we construct a pre-production sample using final production fabrics, trims, and manufacturing lines. The PP sample serves as the quality standard for our inline and final QC inspectors.
Upon PP sample approval, our factory begins mass production. Our quality team monitors the yarn, circular knitting, dyeing, cutting, assembly, and finishing processes. We track dimensional stability, skewing, and colorfastness throughout production.
Ningbo Jinmao processes a wide range of customized knit and woven fabric formulations. Choose the optimal base structure to meet your brand's handfeel, weight, and performance requirements:
To match brand identities, we offer specialized embellishment techniques. Each process is calibrated to prevent shrinkage, ink cracking, or structural damage to the pique weave:
Designed for large corporate distributions, trade shows, and high-frequency office wear. Focuses on heavy 220-240 GSM double-pique constructions, pill resistance, and stain release finishes to ensure uniform longevity.
Emphasizes refined handfeel, slimmer fits, and sustainable sourcing. Sourced using mercerized 100% organic cotton or cotton/modal blends with subtle details like mother-of-pearl buttons and herringbone collar tapes.
Optimized for warm climates. Features quick-dry cotton-poly blends and antibacterial finishes to prevent odor retention, offering a practical alternative for golf, tennis, and active corporate events.

Find key answers regarding production processes, MOQ options, raw materials, payment parameters, and quality testing methods:
Our prices depend on raw material choices, target fabric grammage, complexity of styling details, and seasonal factory capacity. Please contact our merchandising team with your detailed specification sheets for an accurate quotation.
Yes, our standard orders have an MOQ requirement that varies by fabric, dye technique, and garment style. For custom-dyed fabrics, the MOQ typically aligns with yarn dye lot requirements. We also offer options using raw greige stocks to accommodate smaller pilot runs.
We provide standard trade documentation, including Certificates of Analysis, OEKO-TEX material conformance sheets, certificates of origin, and GRS certificates for recycled polyester blends. We also support third-party factory inspection requests.
Typically, sample development takes 7-14 days. Bulk production timelines range from 30 to 60 days following pre-production sample sign-off, depending on design complexity, factory capacity, and raw material availability.
We accept Telegraphic Transfer (TT) with deposit payments, or confirmed Irrevocable Letters of Credit (L/C) at sight. For established accounts with Chinese credit insurance coverage, we can also evaluate deferred payment options.
We cover structural defects, stitching faults, and deviations from approved standards. Our quality control teams perform inline and final AQL checks to verify cargo meets specifications before leaving the factory.
Yes, we encourage sample development to confirm patterns, fabric weight, and fit before committing to bulk production. Developing pre-production samples is an essential step to align on final product specifications.
Our catalog changes as we develop new fabrics and styles. If you require a specific knit formulation, weight, or blend not listed on the website, please contact our team to discuss custom sourcing solutions.
