Manufacturer · Fashion & Home Accessories
To order wholesale Velcro, specify the width, which part you need (hooks, loops, or both), the colour, base type, whether the tape is sew-on or self-adhesive, and the quantity in metres. Include the intended product so the manufacturer can suggest the right option and provide samples. Velcro is supplied in rolls, by the metre, or cut into pieces according to production needs.

How to Calculate Quantity
- Measure the length of Velcro needed per product – separately for the hard and soft parts, as they often differ.
- Multiply by the number of products in each colour.
- Sum by width and colour.
- Add allowance for samples, machine setup, and waste.
Example: a child’s shoe with two straps, each with 4 cm hard part and 7 cm soft part. For 1,000 pairs, you need 2,000 shoes × 2 straps × 4 cm = 160 m hard part and 2,000 × 2 × 7 cm = 280 m soft part, plus allowance. Ordering a set with equal lengths will cause excess hard part – so specify parts separately.
Special Requirements
Some products have requirements that must be specified in the initial inquiry, as they affect tape choice:
- Industrial washing – for workwear and uniforms washed in professional laundries;
- Flame resistance – for protective clothing and some technical products;
- Outdoor conditions – UV exposure, moisture, and cold for outdoor gear;
- Skin contact – for medical products, underwear, and children’s clothing;
- Quiet tape – for products where noise when unfastening is undesirable.
If the product must meet a specific standard, state it explicitly. We will check which items comply and what documentation is available.
Rolls, By the Metre, or Cut Pieces
Rolls
The most economical option for serial production. The tape is cut in-house to the required length. Convenient when lengths vary by model.
By the Metre
Suitable for smaller quantities, samples, ateliers, and repairs.
Cut Pieces
Pre-cut pieces, often with rounded corners, save an operation in production and provide uniform parts. Cost-effective for large series with the same length. Circles and shapes are die-cut.
Planning Deliveries
For ongoing production, it is more convenient to plan Velcro for the entire season rather than each batch separately. This way, Pantone colours are dyed at once and all collection items have the same shade. If you produce the same models year-round, discuss a delivery schedule to avoid large stock or production stops due to lack of tape. Standard colours like black and white are usually easier to coordinate than special ones.
Samples Before Ordering
Request samples and check:
- fastening strength on the actual product;
- softness of the soft part if in contact with skin;
- colour in daylight and next to fabric;
- performance after several washes;
- how it sews on your machines.
Velcro Price: What Determines It
The wholesale price of Velcro varies depending on several factors:
- Width – wider tape uses more material;
- Base type – soft, elastic, and special tapes differ in complexity;
- Colour – standard colours or Pantone dyeing;
- Self-adhesive layer – adds material and process;
- Cutting and shapes – additional processing;
- Quantity – larger orders are planned more efficiently.

Combining with Other Haberdashery
Velcro is rarely the only accessory in a product. It usually goes with sewing threads, ribbons, elastics, buckles, and labels. When all come from one manufacturer, colours are easier to match, and delivery and documentation are consolidated. Explore the rest of our haberdashery.
Common Ordering Mistakes
- Ordering a set when the hard and soft parts have different lengths.
- Unspecified base – receiving a hard tape for children’s clothing.
- Self-adhesive tape for a product that will be washed.
- No allowance for setup and waste.
- Colour chosen only from a screen photo.
Widths and colours are available in the Velcro collection.
