Our Sewing Manufacturing Services
Built to support complex products, tight timelines, and production that needs to scale without disruption.
Contract Sewing Manufacturing
We provide production sewing for OEMs who need consistency at scale. From first production runs to 10,000+ units a month, our domestic facility, skilled operators, and ISO 9001:2015-certified quality system keep quality stable as volumes increase.
Learn MoreDesign & Prototyping
We engineer products for production, not just appearance. Our team develops CAD patterns, sewn prototypes (typically in 3–4 weeks), and manufacturability improvements so designs transition cleanly from samples into repeatable, high-volume production sewing.
Learn MoreMaterial Sourcing
We manage fabrics, webbing, foam, and hardware in-house to prevent delays and material mismatches. This ensures that, as your sewing manufacturer, we maintain consistent builds as orders grow, without supply chain surprises.

Sewing Manufacturer FAQs
What sewing services does Fieldtex offer?
Fieldtex Cases offers contract sewing, cut-and-sew manufacturing, heavy-duty sewing, fabric cutting, prototype sewing, and soft-goods design and engineering under one roof. We also handle material sourcing, private-label branding, and packaging and final assembly, so a product can go from CAD pattern to a boxed, labeled unit without changing suppliers.
How do I choose between sewing companies near me and an overseas supplier?
Start with how much the product will change and how much paperwork it carries. When comparing sewing manufacturers for medical, defense, or engineered products, a domestic sewing factory shortens every loop: samples, revisions, and audits take days, and finished goods clear no customs. Offshore suppliers can compete on simple, stable, high-volume items. Our 48-hour quotes let you compare on real numbers.
What is production sewing?
Production sewing is the repeatable, high-volume stage of sewn-product manufacturing, where an approved prototype is built in quantity to a fixed specification. At Fieldtex, production runs on 125+ industrial machines across 12 machine classes, using 301 lockstitch, 401 chainstitch, and 504 overedge stitches, with bartack and Box-X reinforcement where loads require it.
What is your minimum order quantity?
Our minimum order quantity is 100 pieces. That makes us a practical fit for pilot runs and smaller programs, and the same lines scale to 5,000–10,000+ units per month once a product is approved.
How fast can I get a quote and a prototype?
We return pricing within 48 hours of receiving your specifications. Sewn prototypes typically take 3–4 weeks, depending on materials and design complexity, and we review them with your engineers before anything moves to production.
What certifications does Fieldtex hold?
Fieldtex holds ISO 9001:2015 certification and operates an FDA-registered facility (registration no. 3010164139). We can also produce Berry Amendment-compliant goods using 100% U.S. materials and labor. For medical device OEMs, we work to ISO 13485 documentation and process standards and provide the traceability records your own quality system needs.
