You pour your creativity into a unique design, but fear it will be stolen by the same factory you hired to make it. This betrayal could ruin your brand's future.

A trustworthy factory protects your intellectual property¹ with a binding NDA, secure data systems, a contractual ban on sub-contracting, and accepts full legal and financial responsibility for any breach.

Your design is your most valuable asset. I've spent over 20 years in this business, and I know that my job is not just to sew denim together.

My most important job is to be a guardian of your creative vision. A beautiful product is meaningless if the trust behind it is broken.

That's why we have built our entire process around protecting your intellectual property. It starts with clear legal agreements and is supported by strict daily procedures.

Your creativity is safe here, and I want to show you exactly how we ensure that.

Will they sign a confidentiality agreement² for my designs?

You feel vulnerable sending your designs overseas. You are just hoping your factory partner is honest, but you have no legal document to protect your brand's core assets.

Yes, absolutely. Any professional factory will sign a detailed Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before you share any sensitive information. This is a standard and non-negotiable step for us.

The NDA is the legal foundation of our partnership. It is not just a formality; it is a serious promise. We will sign a clear and specific agreement that protects you completely.

The document will explicitly state what information is confidential, which includes your design drawings, your tech packs, and your physical patterns.

It legally obligates us not to share this information with anyone outside of the project.

It also forbids us from using your designs for any other client or for our own purposes. This duty of confidentiality extends for years, even after our contract ends.

Most importantly, the NDA defines the penalties if we were to break this promise, including financial compensation for all damages.

This isn't just a piece of paper; it's our written commitment to protect your creativity.

Key Clauses in Our NDA

Clause	Description
Confidential Information	Clearly defines what is protected (sketches, patterns, tech packs).
Obligations	States we will not disclose or use your IP for any other purpose.
Term of Confidentiality	The protection continues for several years, even after the project is done.
Breach of Contract	Specifies financial penalties and legal costs we must pay if we break the NDA.

How do they secure my tech packs and patterns from leaks?

Your tech pack is your product's blueprint. You worry that a careless employee or a weak IT system could leak this information to competitors, instantly erasing your competitive advantage.

We use a dual-layer security system. We use technical controls like data encryption for digital files and strict process controls for physical assets to ensure your information is always secure.

Protecting your information requires more than just a promise; it requires a system. Our system has two main parts.

First is the technical layer. All of your digital files, like tech packs, are stored on our secure server with AES-256 encryption.

This means the files are unreadable outside of our protected network. We also disable USB ports on computers that handle sensitive data to prevent unauthorized copying.

Any physical printouts are made with digital watermarks that trace back to the user and time of printing. The second layer is process control.

We use strict access permissions, so only the key people who need the information can see it. For example, only the pattern maker can access the final pattern files.

We also require every employee who handles your designs to sign an individual confidentiality agreement. This way, your IP is protected by both technology and procedure.

Can they guarantee no sub-contracting of my project?

You carefully selected a factory for its quality and certifications. But you have a deep fear they will secretly send your order to a cheaper, unvetted factory, risking quality control and your design security.

Yes, we can and we do. Our manufacturing contract includes a clear "No Sub-Contracting" clause. This is a contractual guarantee³ that your project will be made entirely within our factory's walls.

This is a very important point of trust. When you hire us, you are hiring our team, our machines, and our commitment to quality. You are not hiring an unknown third party. That is why our contract explicitly forbids sub-contracting.

The clause clearly states that we cannot send any part of your production process to another factory without first getting your express written permission. We stand by this commitment with total transparency.

We welcome you or your representatives to visit our factory at any stage of production to see your jeans being made by our team.

If we ever violated this clause, the contract gives you the right to immediately terminate the order, demand significant financial penalties, and hold us liable for any damages that result, especially from a leak of your designs.

What legal remedies protect me against design copying?

An NDA is good, but what happens if the worst happens and a factory actually copies your design? You feel powerless, thinking it's impossible to enforce your rights from the other side of the world.

You are protected by two powerful layers: our contract and Chinese law. The NDA allows for swift financial compensation, while China's Copyright Law⁴ allows you to sue to stop the infringement.

If your design were ever copied, you have strong legal tools to fight back. Your first and fastest line of defense is the contract we signed.

The NDA and manufacturing agreement contain clauses for breach of contract. This allows you to sue us directly for financial damages as laid out in the agreement.

This is a powerful deterrent because it makes copying your designs a financially losing proposition for us. Your second layer of protection is Chinese law itself.

Fashion designs are protected under China's Copyright Law. You have the right to file a lawsuit in a Chinese court.

A court can order the infringing party to stop all production, and they can even order the destruction of all the copied products and the molds used to make them.

The court can award damages based on your losses, our illegal profits, or a statutory amount determined by the judge.

Conclusion

We protect your designs with binding legal agreements, secure internal systems, and full accountability under the law. We are not just a supplier; we are the trusted guardian of your creativity.
