Design and Development: From Concept to Prototype
Longzhaos design workflow typically follows these stages:1. Briefing and concept development: Client provides brand guidelines, target price points, and functional priorities. Longzhaos designers propose initial concepts and mood boards.2. Technical drawings and CAD: Detailed specifications are created, including measurements, material placements, and hardware lists.3. Sample development: Prototypes or pre-production samples are produced. This phase supports iterative feedback on fit, function, and aesthetics.4. Testing and adjustments: Samples undergo functional tests (strap stress, zipper cycles, water repellency) and aesthetic approvals.5. Final pre-production sample: Once approved, Longzhao creates a production-ready sample for client sign-off and factory set-up.This iterative, collaborative process reduces risk and ensures alignment between client expectations and manufacturing outcomes.
Manufacturing and Quality Control
Manufacturing at Longzhao is structured to balance craftsmanship with industrial efficiency:- Material sourcing: Longzhao sources fabrics, trims, and hardware from established suppliers and can coordinate specialty materials for unique projects.- Cutting and assembly: Precision cutting (manual and automated CNC) is followed by staged assembly at workstations organized for specific bag types.- Stitching and reinforcement: Seams are double-stitched or bar-tacked at stress points. Reinforcements are applied to base plates and strap anchor points.- Quality control checkpoints: Incoming materials are inspected, in-line inspections are conducted during assembly, and finished products undergo final checks for dimensions, hardware functionality, and cosmetic defects.- Sampling and batch tests: Random sample testing across batches checks wear resistance, static load-bearing for straps, and water resistance of treated fabrics.Longzhaos aim is to deliver consistent quality at scale while offering customization flexibility.
Sustainability and Responsible Production
Sustainability is an increasing priority for buyers. Longzhao can support greener options:- Recycled fabrics and trims: Availability of recycled polyester and nylon reduces reliance on virgin materials.- Water-based coatings and eco-friendly PU: Lower VOC alternatives are available for clients seeking improved environmental footprints.- Waste reduction: Pattern planning and optimized cutting reduce fabric waste. Offcuts can be repurposed for accessories or non-visible linings.- Ethical manufacturing practices: The factory adheres to standard labor and safety practices, and can provide compliance documentation to support brand-level audits.Clients can request certificates and sustainability data as part of project planning.
Lead Times, Minimum Order Quantities (MOQs), and Pricing Guidance
