GarmentProcessing
With our origins in garment processing and more than two decades of experience, we are recognised as the leader in this specialist field.
Our success in garment processing is not only due to our investment in infrastructure and technology – we are equally committed to investing in people. We recruit, train and retain operatives with experience in garment handling, and specialist skills ranging from labelling, packaging, presentation compliance, and detailed AQL garment quality control (QC) checks to technical VAS.
Advanced Supply Chain Group specialises in all aspects of garment quality control, compliance, and processing. We also have all of the necessary expertise and equipment to deliver all aspects of pre-retail, processing, quality control, returns and delivery compliance. All services are undertaken to the highest quality, ensuring that the product reaches its end destination fully compliant and right first time.
Our garment processing services improve speed to market, reduce dwell time at destination DC / FC and maximise the product selling window. Our solutions are designed to be customer specific however, the core process and checks carried out are similar across all customer requirements.
We have invested heavily in our garment processing sites, equipping them with modern, fully-automated garment processing tools including steam tunnels and auto baggers. The sites are linked to our sophisticated Vector software, which is equally adept with hanging or flat garments as it is with boxed goods. This means that our customers benefit from the same real-time control tower visibility and reporting features, as well as full integration and direct EDI links with their own in-house systems.
We’ve developed a unique garment quality control dashboard that allows us to carry out accurate and efficient QC and compliance inspections, ensuring our customers’ products meet their required quality standards. Any defects are quickly identified and reported to prevent delays within the supply chain. Business intelligence and detailed data reporting provides our customers with enhanced vendor management tools and the ability to make informed buying decisions.

What is extended producer responsibility (EPR)?
EPR is an environmental policy determining whether the responsibility of producers is extended to the post-consumer stage of a product’s life cycle. Producers could be manufacturers, importers, brand owners, retailers, distance sellers or foreign producers.
The increased introduction of textiles within this scheme aims to improve recycling and reuse rates and generate positive environmental change on a global scale via incentives and fees.
What you need to do to prepare?
EPR legislation is emerging internationally and there is a complex legislative landscape for retailers, brands and producers to navigate. By 1st January 2025, EU legislation will mandate the setup of schemes for the separate collection of textiles for reuse and recycling which could have a radical impact across the industry, meaning preparations should begin as soon as possible.
