Pattern Cutting: We develop accurate garment patterns from sketches, samples or technical references. This stage helps define shape, fit, construction and production feasibility.
Pattern Grading: We create size ranges from approved base patterns while protecting fit consistency across sizes. Grading is essential before size-set sampling and production.
Pattern Digitising: We convert paper patterns into digital files for grading, amendments, storage and factory communication. Digital pattern files make development easier to manage as a brand grows.
Tech Pack Development: We prepare technical documents that communicate measurements, construction details, materials, trims and finishing requirements to suppliers or factories.
Toiling and First Sample: We help brands test fit, construction and design decisions before moving into production. This reduces risk and gives a clearer route to final approval.
Fabric Sourcing: We support fabric and trim sourcing based on design intent, budget, garment function and production needs.
Costing and Marker Making: We help estimate fabric use, reduce waste and prepare more efficient production plans.
Manufacturing Support: We support UK and overseas manufacturing preparation by connecting technical development, sample approval, files and production planning.
From concept to production
Our process can support the full journey from an initial idea to production preparation. A typical project may begin with consultation and design review, then move into pattern development, sampling, fitting, amendments, grading, tech packs and manufacturing support. This structure helps brands avoid disconnected decisions between design, sampling and production.
Why brands work with Grade House
Brands work with Grade House because garment development requires both creative understanding and technical control. Our team focuses on practical development decisions that improve fit, construction, documentation and production readiness, helping brands move forward with fewer avoidable revisions.
