Unlocking Your Vision:
In the realm of apparel production, Tech Packs are indispensable. They serve as blueprints, guiding manufacturers to transform your ideas into market-ready realities swiftly and efficiently. Whether you’re embarking on a private label clothing venture or expanding your product line, Tech Packs are your compass.
What's Inside a Techpack?

- Technical illustrations depicting each design element with typically front, inside, & back views
- Measurements of the sample & graded sizing specifications
- Construction details, featuring diagrams with labeled indicators highlighting elements like collars, pockets, closures, bar tacks, and artwork positioning.
- Comprehensive Bill of Materials (BOM) listing all physical components and their placements on the garment, including all fabrics, buttons, labels, tags, poly-bags, threads, pads, lining, etc.
- Specification of stitches and seams, incorporating information such as stitches per inch, seam width, seam allowances, and seam callout
How to make a fashion Tech Pack?
Most designers and product developers utilize excel and the adobe software suite to construct their tech packs. This can be a lot to learn for busy entrepreneurs who have not gone to school for design training.
When you order a techpack from Rad Sourcing you get an account manager who partners with you, learns about your product, creates all the illustrations, measurements, and other techpack components to best manufacture your idea.

Ready to start your product development journey? Here are the typical steps in the tech pack process:
Schedule a tech pack consultation:
We answer all of your questions about the process and learn more about your product.
Tech pack design meeting:
Virtually meet with your account manager/designer who takes notes about all design and technical details regarding your product.
After this meeting you would send the designer a sample that is comparable to the product you would like to produce. A tech pack usually takes around 2-3 weeks to complete.
2nd design meeting: This is usually for outstanding questions that could not be answered by email.
Tech pack review meeting: The designer walks you through your tech pack and answers all questions & makes any updates. After the tech pack is approved, the tech pack is given to a factory and your product can begin getting produced!
Sampling: We can help you with this stage of the manufacturing process as well! Sampling is what you do before you order large quantities of your product to make sure everything is 100% correct. It usually takes 2-3 samples from a factory before the product is just right.
