Bra Manufacturer: Underwire, Wireless & Moulded Cup, from 50 pcs

FOB cost depends on three main factors: construction type, fabric and order quantity. A basic wireless bralette in microfibre at 200 pieces typically falls in the US$4–7 range. An underwire bra in stretch lace at the same quantity is usually US$7–12. Moulded cup bras with custom foam and premium trim are US$10–18+. These are indicative ranges. Your exact quote comes after spec review, because fabric composition and trim choice move the number more than any other variable.

The main fabric types are microfibre (typically 80% nylon / 20% elastane), stretch lace, power mesh, cotton jersey, modal and spacer fabric for cups. The structural components are underwire (steel or nickel-free), channelling, foam cups (flat-press or moulded), band elastic, strap elastic, rings and sliders in nickel-free metal or nylon. Hardware for the back closure is typically a 3×3 or 4×4 hook-and-eye set. Label and care label material rounds out the BOM.

We source cups from dedicated foam moulding suppliers, flat-press cups in single or double-layer foam, and fully moulded seamless cups. For OEM orders with a specific cup shape, we work from your cup sample or cup pattern.

Four things to check before committing: (1) Does the factory grade patterns in-house or outsource that step? Outsourced grading adds handoffs and is the most common source of size-run inconsistency. (2) Can they show you a measurement spec sheet with actual values, not just labelling like S/M/L? (3) Will they sign an NDA before reviewing your design? (4) What is their standard QC protocol, inline, end-of-line, or AQL inspection with a report? A factory that cannot answer questions three and four clearly is usually not set up for export brand work.

Yes. Each style has its own 50-piece MOQ per colour. You can mix construction types, for example underwire and wireless in the same order, and we consolidate into one shipment. Sizes are always mixed freely within each style’s colour run.

50 pieces per style per colour, with sizes mixed freely across the run.

ODM samples take 7 to 10 days and new OEM patterns 10 to 14 days. Bulk production takes 30 to 45 days from sample sign-off.

Patterns are graded in-house on our own CAD system. Elastic recovery is wash-tested on the production fabric and you receive the report before cutting. Band elastic comes from a designated supplier, the spec sheet ships with your goods, and sample and bulk use elastic from the same batch and dye lot.

30% deposit to start production. The 70% balance is due after you approve inspection.

Yes. We sign an NDA before spec review, and your design is not shown to other buyers.

Both. We quote FOB Shanghai or Ningbo, or DDP delivered to your door, whichever suits your import set-up.

A moulded cup is made from polyester foam heat-pressed in a 3D die, producing a smooth, seam-free surface. The standard construction for T-shirt and contour bras where a clean silhouette under clothing matters. A seamed cup is built from two to four fabric panels sewn together, which allows precise control over cup projection, lift and volume. Seamed construction is more reliable for D cup and above, where scaling a moulded shape consistently becomes difficult, and it is also the natural choice for lace or premium lingerie where visible seam lines are part of the design. Choose moulded for smooth-silhouette A–D cup collections; choose seamed for D+ sizing, bespoke fit, or design-led lace styles.

Yes. Our standard range is band 30–44, cup A–G. D cup and above are made with seamed or seamed-panel cups, which keeps shape and projection consistent at larger cup volumes. G cup patterns are drafted from a separate base rather than scaled from a mid-range grade. Include your full size run (band range and cup range) when you enquire and we will confirm grading feasibility and recommend the best cup construction before we start sampling.
