Materials & construction

Choose the feel.
Define the finish.

Material choices shape the look, softness, cost and construction of your plush product. Review options together during sampling.

Fabric & Texture
Short-pile plush, longer-pile fabrics, velboa, minky, sherpa and selected textile combinations. Confirm color, pile direction and availability against physical samples.
Filling & Shape
Discuss polyester fiberfill and other suitable filling options, along with softness, weight distribution and shape retention for the proposed product.
Features & Details
Embroidery, appliqué, fabric ears, tails and accessories. Review component choices, attachments and construction for the intended age group and use.
Branding & Labels
Custom woven labels, printed care labels, hangtags and packaging artwork. Confirm placement, wording, languages and buyer-supplied brand assets.

Final materials, component suitability, quantities and testing requirements are confirmed for each project. A material option alone does not establish the compliance of a finished toy.
