Bulk T-Shirt Manufacture

For most brands, off-the-shelf products are the perfect solution. We define off-the-shelf products as those which have already been pre-made and can be purchased wholesale through us (via our online shop or a quote). You can then customise them with your own design, logo, or text.

This is usually the most cost-effective option even on bulk quantities. You can customise these with print or embroidery no matter how big or small your order is.

Off-the-shelf products also come with much faster turnaround times. For bespoke production you’re looking at lead times of at least 14-21 weeks for sampling and production – this is why large established brands plan product ranges years in advance.

When purchasing off-the-shelf products, turnaround times are MUCH faster, with lead times closer to 14-21 working days or less.

We’ve got a number of T-shirts that come with minimal or no manufacturer branding inside, making them a perfect option for your brand. You can read more about this in our Starting a T-shirt Brand Guide.

We live and breathe T-shirts. Whether you want your T-shirt to have your logo printed on it or a jazzy embroidered design, we can help. We have no minimum order and have the capacity to process over 7000 printed T-shirts a day, right here in our UK production facilities.

If ordering T-shirts in bulk, prices can be as low as £2.24 per product. Prices are a little bit higher on totally bespoke products compared to our off-the-shelf products, so for the best price, we’d recommend one of our off-the-shelf options.

While it sounds odd, for most brands, off-the-shelf products are the optimal way to produce T-shirts because it allows you to take advantage of economies of scale.

We define off-the-shelf products as blank garments that have already been pre-made and can be purchased wholesale through us (via our online shop or a quote). This is usually the most cost-effective option, even on bulk quantities. You can still customise these with print or embroidery no matter how big or small your order is.

Wholesale cotton T-shirts can be as little as £1.70 per product, making them a perfect, economical canvas for your brand. Whether you’re after a bold graphic or a subtle logo, T-shirts are a great way to get your message out to the world.

Brands, now more than ever need, to be committed to genuine ethical practice and sustainability throughout their supply chain from the raw materials to the finished product.

However, with a myriad of eco and ethical certifications that are hard to understand and greenwashing rife in every industry, we’ve put together a guide for sustainable clothing manufacturing, to help you navigate the confusing landscape.

Yes, we do! We stock Fairtrade Organic T-shirts and clothing, as well as a wide range of Organic T-shirts that are ethically sourced. All of our products are certified by third parties like the Fairtrade Foundation and the Fair Wear Foundation, ensuring that our standards are your guarantees of sustainable ethical manufacture.

When it comes to sustainability, organic cotton T-shirts come up on top. While recycled options are trendy, they’re not always as good as they may appear, something we’ve covered in greater detail in our article about Organic Cotton Vs Recycled Polyester.

If you’re looking for the gold standard, our Fairtrade Organic T-shirts are certified to the highest ethical standards in the world, making them the perfect option for eco-conscious brands. Moreover, these aren’t just the gold standard for ethics and sustainability, but also for quality, with supreme softness and durability.

In some respects, quality can be quite subjective. For example, some may feel that a heavyweight T-shirt is of higher quality than a lighter weight equivalent, even if the fabric is as durable. Others may feel a super soft organic T-shirt is better quality than a conventional cotton alternative.

So often, the key to finding the best quality for you is to ask yourself by what metrics are you defining quality, as then you’ll know what to look or ask for. This is particularly pertinent with a company like A.M. Custom Clothing, where all of our product ranges are retail quality and designed to last.

When it comes to printing and embroidery, quality is a little less subjective. If a print peels off or ends up disintegrating after a few washes, it’s clearly not high quality. Whether this happens or not is very much down to the quality of the materials/inks/threads, the machines, and the people involved in the decoration process.

We use some of the highest grade inks and Madeira threads (the gold standard for our industry), our machines are among the best in Europe, and our team are industry veterans. With these bases covered we deliver print and embroidery that is of exceptional quality.

All of our printing, embroidery and finishing is done here in the UK. We have a number of production facilities across the UK in cities such as Manchester, London, Liverpool, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds and Southampton to name a few. Our network of production facilities allows us to deliver anywhere in the UK or the rest of the world, whatever quantity you require.
