Full Credit Guarantee: The entire USD 75 fee is credited directly toward your first bulk production deposit.

Each pack contains real tactile swatches of Carvico Vita, Sumatra, Pantelleria, and Eco Lustra, alongside laser-accurate color books, removable molded cups, trim samples, and heat-press transfers.

For custom collections, prototype sampling is mandatory to finalize fitting curves and sewing tolerances. Submit clear design handovers (sketches, CAD drawings, or tech packs) with detailed notes regarding neckline depths, coverage levels, strap widths, and fabric choices.

Custom samples are charged at double the wholesale unit rate plus a USD 30 digital CAD pattern development fee per style, fully credited against your bulk order deposit.

We operate on collection-based MOQs, giving founders the creative liberty to offer balanced colorways and complete size ranges:

• Custom Designs: 400 pieces per collection (minimum 40 pieces per style, 4 pieces per size and colorway).
• Ready Designs: 300 pieces per collection (minimum 30 pieces per style, 3 pieces per size and colorway).

This allows a balanced launch mix of bikini tops, bottoms, and one-pieces without excessive inventory exposure.

Sampling Lead Time: 1 to 3 weeks for custom styles; 1 to 2 weeks for ready styles using in-stock raw materials.

Bulk Manufacturing: Typically 3 to 5 weeks from final sample approval, technical sign-off, and deposit verification.

Custom hardware casting, specialty yarn dyeing, or overseas strike-offs require additional scheduled lead time.

No. Swime Swimwear Co., Ltd. never builds collections from unpredictable deadstock or leftover remnants. All our textiles are freshly manufactured, air-freighted weekly in continuous 70-meter rolls, and kept in climate-regulated storage. This guarantees consistent hand-feel, uniform elasticity, and exact dye-lot matching across both initial orders and future restocks.

Yes. Swime Swimwear Co., Ltd. holds a recognized Tax-Free Fabric Import Facility granted under official trade oversight. We assist qualifying international clients in routing proprietary textiles directly to our Bali facility without prohibitive local customs tariffs.

We are the only Bali facility offering true digital sublimation directly onto recycled REPREVE® nylon utilizing advanced Italian MS industrial printers with OEKO-TEX® certified water-based inks.

Supply your artwork files in scalable vector formats (AI, EPS, PDF, CDR) or ultra-high-resolution rasters (300 DPI minimum). Digital strike-offs ensure complete color fidelity, sharp fine lines, and superior softness without the stiff plastic finish common with low-grade screen printing.

Yes. Ethical production is fundamental to Swime Swimwear Co., Ltd. All cutting, sewing, finishing, and packaging operations are handled entirely within our safe, well-ventilated, modern Kerobokan facility.

Our team receives compensation double the local statutory minimum, full health and maternity benefits, government pension contributions, paid overtime, and standard working hours. We practice strict closed-loop fabric scrap re-purposing and package all pieces in plant-based, biodegradable polybags.

Our facility holds an exclusive government-certified Tax-Free Import Facility status. This distinction is granted only to export manufacturers that demonstrate rigorous environmental compliance, certified ethical labor treatment, and auditable accounting.

This license removes typical 35% Indonesian import duties on luxury Italian and American lycra, and we pass these savings directly to our brand partners in lower per-unit production costs.

Sample Orders: Payable 100% upfront before pattern drafting and cutting commence.

Bulk Manufacturing: Managed on a 50% deposit to procure materials and start assembly. The remaining 50% balance is payable upon production completion and final quality audit approval, immediately prior to shipping release.

Payments are handled via secure International Wire Transfer (Telegraphic Transfer in USD or AUD). PayPal is accepted for prototype sampling orders.

We deliver worldwide using express air couriers including DHL Express and FedEx Priority. Deliveries to the United States, Australia, the United Kingdom, Europe, and Asia reach your door within 3 to 5 business days.
