How our production process works

We guide you step by step, so you know exactly what to expect.

atelier jungles process introduction plan patterns production consultation clothing production Netherlands and quality

  1. Introductory meeting and plan

    In an online or live conversation, we will discuss your idea, target audience, desired products, quantities, and budget. We will assess whether you are ready for the next step and provide an initial indication of feasibility. You will receive an honest assessment and a general timeline.

  2. Production consultation: design and material sourcing

    The preparatory phase for sampling. We assemble the collections and make decisions about materials, color, size chart, labels, packaging, possible delivery times, and budget, and we establish agreements. You will then receive a clear price per item and a proposal for planning.

    Production consultation rate

    Fixed rate €220.00 (ex. VAT). Duration: on average a morning or afternoon, in our studio or digitally.

     

  3. Pattern development and samples


    Based on your sketches, references, or existing clothing, we develop patterns and create the first samples in our studio. You try them on, provide feedback, and together we adjust until it’s right.

    Sample rates

    Our rate is €44.50 per hour (ex. VAT). Preliminary indication of hours. All samples and patterns are then your property.

    You can also opt for just a sample process to test first. Read more: having clothing samples made.

  4. Production in The Hague

    After approval, we roll out production in our studio in The Hague. We work in batches, keep you updated, and you are welcome to visit. After completion, you can choose to have it shipped or picked up.

    Each piece checked for fit and finish, then shipped or picked up.

Who is clothing production in the Netherlands suitable for?

 

It is especially interesting for brands and organizations that value quality, flexibility, and transparency. They know their target audience but are stuck in production issues. And they want to take the next step but don’t know how.

We work for, among others:

  • (Growing) Fashion brands active for 3-10 years with a focus on quality and sustainability
  • Starting brands that want to start small with guidance
  • Companies looking for corporate clothing or sustainable merchandise
  • Organizations with their own textile streams (upcycling and circular)
  • (Semi)Public institutions with responsible purchasing policies

Upcycling and circularity

In addition to regular clothing production, we work on circular projects that transform existing textile flows into new products.

  • old company clothing and promotional clothing
  • banners, flags, and event textiles
  • textile scraps and deadstock fabrics
  • bags, shoppers, laptop sleeves, and toiletry bags
    aprons and workwear with a circular story
  • corporate gifts and merchandise
  • interior products such as cushions, panels, and poufs

Are you unsure about production in the Netherlands vs. abroad?


Many brands consider clothing production in Portugal, Turkey, China, or Eastern Europe due to price or scale. This can make sense — depending on your phase, quantity, and strategy.

For starting brands, initial collections, or test series, local production in the Netherlands can be more strategic. You can start small, adjust quickly, and communicate directly with the workshop.

  • Small quantities possible (from 25–50 pieces)
  • Quick sample and correction rounds
  • Direct contact with makers
  • Less logistical and financial risk

Are you curious about the difference between production in the Netherlands and other countries? Check out our overview of clothing production abroad.

Many brands opt for a hybrid approach: first developing locally in the Netherlands, then possibly scaling up abroad once volumes justify it.
