A Reliable Garment Factory for Merino Wool
Repeat orders from tier-1 outdoor and nursery brands, AQL 1.5 on every shipment and a single team accountable from yarn to carton.
Most merino sourcing problems are not price problems — they are reliability problems: fabric that behaves differently batch to batch, shipments that slip, compliance paperwork that arrives late or incomplete. Apex Apparels was built to remove those failure points.
Because knitting, dyeing and garmenting sit in the same 60,000 sq. ft. facility in Gurugram, India, there is no vendor hand-off where accountability gets lost. A single quality system covers yarn intake, knit testing, dye lot approval, sewing and final inspection, and one team answers for the delivery date.
Compliance is documented rather than claimed: Sedex-audited social compliance, Woolmark and Responsible Wool Standard chains of custody, OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 chemical safety and GOTS-certified organic processing. Buyers can verify the factory in person or over live video before placing an order.
