Case study · Home & living
From textile concept to online retail.
For a large wall hanging, texture, dimensions and finishing define the final appearance. JLM managed the process in India from product brief and sample to packaging, quality control and online retail launch.
The challengeProduce a large tactile textile product with consistent visual quality.
JLM's roleManage supplier, samples, quality level, packaging and inspection.
The resultA retail-ready wall hanging for a European online launch.
The brief
A calm appearance requires precise execution.
JLM Sourcing managed the development of a large cream wall hanging for a European retailer. The design combines vertical textures, a rounded relief pattern and fringe with a wooden hanging bar.
Small differences are especially visible in a tone-on-tone design. Texture density, pattern symmetry, dimensions and finishing therefore had to be correct in the sample and repeatable throughout production.
What JLM managed
From visual concept to a measurable product specification.
Supplier selection
Assessment of textile capability, capacity, export experience and suitability for retail requirements.
Sample comparison
Checking texture, density, pattern proportions and finishing against the agreed reference.
Materials and documents
Alignment of product and packaging documentation, including requirements for the wooden hanging bar.
Packaging
Optimisation of carton dimensions and protection for international distribution and online sales.
Quality control
Independent final inspection covering dimensions, appearance, finishing, packaging and agreed quality.
Texture, density and pattern define the final appearanceWhere JLM adds value
An approved sample is only the beginning.
Textile production can show visible variation in density, tension or manual finishing. JLM connects visual assessment to measurable requirements and follows execution locally.
- Reference sample translated into controllable product characteristics
- Texture and finishing deviations addressed before shipment
