Have you ever needed a tech pack? If you’re a fashion brand, a designer or work in the apparel industry, chances are you’ve come across this term before. Although it’s supposed to be a pretty standard term, you’d be surprised how often people are confused by what a tech pack exactly is.
In any case, being one of the most important tools to design and produce apparel and clothes, any manufacturer that knows what they’re doing wont even waste time with you unless you provide a tech pack.
So what is a Tech Pack?
Tech pack (also known as a technical pack) is a comprehensive set of illustrations and documents containing every detail needed to produce a garment. It serves as the blueprint of the design. It enables the designer to communicate with the garment maker so they are able to translate what was once the sketch of an idea into reality. It contains very specific details that can include drawings, raw materials to use, measurements, brand standards and other special instructions.
A detailed tech pack will help the manufacturer to have a clear understanding about how to make the specific item of clothing. It ensures that the goods are made precisely as designed, in the correct quantity and time it is needed.
Why do you need a Tech Pack?
Time costs money and communication is always a challenge in dealing with offshore manufacturers from other countries. Differences in terminologies and practices can sometimes be interpreted in different ways by different people. It is frustrating to be going back and forth with minute details that can sometimes make or break designs. Using a tech pack as your holy grail during the development stage all the way through to production will save you significant amounts of time, money and misunderstandings along the way. It serves as a guide and a basis to both the brand and the maker to create products while being efficient and cost effective.
Making one design in several colorways in at least 4 size breakdowns costs a lot of money. You can always plan your course of action but sometimes things just don’t go as planned. If somebody misses out on a certain instruction or makes a mistakes on particular details it can be very expensive. In these cases somebody needs to be accountable. Sometimes the errors can be negligible. Other times it can be quite damaging and comes with a hefty price tag. Using a tech pack will help ensure that these kinds of mistakes, misinterpretations and omissions can be avoided. In case it happens, it is easier to know what went wrong and how the situation can be rectified.
Using a tech pack as a guiding tool to help you navigate the industry is the standard. It is efficient, cost effective and the easiest way to avoid unnecessary mistakes.
What’s inside a Tech Pack?
Every brand or company has their own check list when it comes to making tech packs. Some are more detailed than others. While it is good to be as detailed as possible, there are a few essential components that are standard and should not be missed.
Garment Illustrations
The most basic part of the tech pack are the drawings. This represents the idea in visual form. It is important to have a colored illustration to see how the garment will look like when done. This will show the color of the main fabric, secondary fabric combination and embroidery or print details scaled to size. This should also give a general idea of how the garment’s front and back view looks like. Sometimes if the garment is more complicated, it will also be helpful to show the side view.
It should also include a technical black and white drawing that shows the garment construction. This page will include the kinds of stitches, the general silhouette, it should describe placement of fabric combinations and trims, patches and appliques if there are any. It can also include details of the thickness of the thread to use, SPI (Stitch per Inch), detailed descriptions of parts of the garment that needs to be highlighted. If the garment has a fake welt pocket at the left panel, it should clearly state so. Always remember that details like these can affect the cost of the garment as well.
In most cases, one design comes in more than one color. If this is the case then the colorways including color combinations of fabric, thread and sundries should be shown so the factory is aware of how many kinds they are working on for one design.
Bill of Materials or BOM
In the bill of materials page you will find all details about the fabric, lining, combination fabrics, trims and sundries, thread color and thickness, sewing and packing labels or trim card. Information about consumption and the suppliers if available is also helpful to mention here. If a printed copy of the tech pack will be sent to the manufacturer, it will be best to include cut swatches of actual fabrics or a representative of something similar, sample of buttons, closures, etc.
The Bill of Materials will give you the overview of what raw materials was used to create the garment.
