In the modern garment industry, export t-shirts not only require aesthetic appeal but also demand a professional, standardized production process that meets international quality standards. From material selection, cutting and sewing, printing and embroidery to final product inspection, each stage plays a crucial role in determining the final product quality.

With the increasing demand from both domestic and international markets, export t-shirt manufacturers need to invest heavily in technology, machinery, and management systems to ensure productivity, consistency, and timely delivery. Tien Thanh Investment and Trading Production Co., Ltd. is proud to be a specialized manufacturer of export t-shirts with a modern, optimized process that meets the diverse requirements of corporate clients, local brands, and export partners.

What are Export T-shirts?

Export t-shirts are a product line manufactured to high standards in fabric quality, stitching, fit, and finishing techniques to serve the international market or brands with stringent requirements.

Unlike regular t-shirts, export t-shirts must meet the following criteria:

- High durability, maintaining shape well after multiple washes

- Strong, even, and clean stitching

- Safe, skin-friendly material (Oeko-Tex Standard 100)

- Stable and balanced fit

- Standard Pantone colors, colorfast

- Sharp, high-adhesion printing and embroidery techniques

To achieve these standards, professional garment factories like Tien Thanh must build a systematic export t-shirt production process and strictly control quality at each step.

Export T-Shirt Production Process at Tien Thanh

Step 1: Receiving Requests & Product Design

The process begins with receiving customer requests via design files, actual samples, or ideas. Tien Thanh's design and engineering team will advise on garment shapes, material selection, color adjustments, design optimization for mass production, and detailed technical specifications. We create sample garments within 3-7 days for customer approval before production.

Step 2: Selecting High-Quality Fabrics

Tien Thanh only uses reputable fabrics from major domestic and international suppliers. Common materials include: 100% Cotton, Cotton Compact, Cotton USA, CVC, TC, sports polyester, 4-way stretch fabric…

Every batch of fabric undergoes rigorous testing: shrinkage, colorfastness, thickness, sweat absorption, and elasticity. We adhere to Oeko-Tex and REACH standards to ensure absolute safety.

Step 3: Pattern Design & Size Grading

After finalizing the sample, the technical department designs the original pattern, grades the sizes according to international standards, and tests the actual fit. This stage ensures the garment looks good, is well-proportioned, and suits a wide range of customers.

Step 4: Fabric Laying & Automatic Cutting

Tien Thanh uses a modern Gerber automatic fabric laying and cutting system, ensuring high accuracy, reducing material waste to less than 3%, and optimizing production speed. Each garment detail is cut precisely, minimizing size discrepancies or incorrect forms.

Step 5: Screen Printing & Computerized Embroidery

Depending on requirements, we apply the following technologies:

- Traditional screen printing

- Heat transfer printing

- PET printing, 3D silicone printing

- Computerized embroidery and 3D raised embroidery

Our industrial printing and embroidery systems ensure sharp images, durable colors, and high adhesion even after multiple washes – a crucial factor for export-quality t-shirts.

Step 6: Finished Sewing

The product is then transferred to an industrial sewing line with the following stages: shoulder sewing, sleeve sewing, body assembly, collar sewing, and hem sewing. We use modern JUKI and BROTHER sewing machines along with a skilled workforce, applying the Lean Manufacturing model to ensure strong, even stitching and increased productivity.

Step 7: Quality Control (QC)

This is a crucial step. All products undergo multi-layer inspection (Inline QC & Final QC) according to AQL 2.5 or 1.5 standards, including: stitching, shape, size, color, print/embroidery, cleanliness, and excess threads. Tien Thanh's defect rate is typically maintained below 1%.

Step 8: Ironing – Packaging – Shipping

Products are ironed to shape, folded correctly, packed in PE bags, labeled, and securely boxed in cartons. We provide full OEM/ODM packaging support, custom label printing, brand tagging, and complete export documentation (C/O, Invoice, Packing List…).
