Clothing Factory

Welcome to the Woodstock Laundry factory! Here, we blend traditional craftsmanship with modern techniques to create our premium loungewear. Our garments are meticulously handcrafted in our own small factory in Cape Town, using ethically sourced organic cotton. Proudly family-owned since 1979, we combine decades of expertise with modern sustainability to ensure each piece meets our high standards. Below, you can see the meticulous steps we take to craft our exceptional loungewear.

Sourcing materials

We carefully select sustainable and high-quality materials for our loungewear, ensuring each piece is both comfortable and eco-friendly.

Our cotton is of ecological premium quality and GOTS certified, guaranteeing it meets the highest standards for organic textiles.

Every item is chosen to be as sustainable as possible, from our corozo buttons, known for their durability and environmental benefits, to our swim trunks made from recycled ocean plastic.

This commitment to sustainability ensures that our products not only look and feel great but also contribute positively to the environment.

Design of prints

Our design team creates unique, eye-catching prints that make our loungewear stand out.

We have in-house designers who bring innovative ideas and styles to life, ensuring each garment has a distinctive look. Additionally, we collaborate with local artists to infuse our collections with diverse artistic perspectives.

This blend of in-house creativity and local artistry allows us to offer prints that are not only unique but also culturally enriched, adding a special touch to our loungewear.

Design of Garments

From initial sketches to final designs, our garments are crafted with both style and comfort in mind.

We start with conceptual development, move to fabric selection and testing, then proceed to pattern making and precise fabric cutting.

Skilled artisans sew and detail the pieces, followed by fitting and adjustments to ensure perfect fit. Rigorous quality control checks are performed before the garments are ironed and sustainably packaged.

Cuttin the fabric

Cutting the Fabric

Using precision techniques, we cut our fabrics to minimize waste and ensure a perfect fit.

Patterns are carefully laid out on multiple layers of fabric, allowing us to cut several sheets at once. Our skilled artisans meticulously hand-cut these layers, ensuring each piece is accurately labeled and prepared for assembly.

This hands-on approach guarantees that every garment meets our high standards of quality and fit.

Sewing

Our skilled artisans sew each piece with meticulous attention to detail.

Using high-quality threads and stitching techniques, they ensure durability and a flawless finish. Each garment undergoes careful assembly, with details like seams, hems, and pockets crafted to perfection. We also incorporate corozo buttons, adding a touch of elegance and sustainability to our designs.

This dedication to quality and craftsmanship results in loungewear that is not only stylish but also long-lasting and comfortable.

Quality control

Quality Control

Every garment undergoes rigorous quality checks to ensure it meets our high standards.

Our process includes multiple stages of inspection, from the initial fabric selection to the final product. Each piece is carefully examined for defects, ensuring that seams, hems, and finishes are flawless. We also test for durability, checking the strength of stitches and the quality of materials. Any garment that does not meet our stringent criteria is reworked or discarded.

This thorough quality control process guarantees that only the best products reach our customers, maintaining our reputation for excellence.
