WE BELIEVE IN WHAT WE DO
OUR COMPANY CULTURE IS STRONG.
IT’S THE FOUNDATION THAT HELPS US BUILD OUR BUSINESS
Giving our customers the best textile supports for their brand and business communications is what drives us to innovate, both in our products and in the way we bring them to market.
Sourcing our inspiration directly from the same sources as retail, staying ahead of trends and a dedicated design team are key to the constant update and renewal of our collections.
It’s our philosophy. As a team we are all driven to consistently challenge the status quo and come up with creative ideas, find alternative solutions, explore new opportunities.
Our team and structure keeps us close to our market, listening to needs and gathering data to make sure we offer the best solutions, wherever we are.
Quality is not a privilege
In our business fabric is everything, that’s why we chose ring-spun from the start.
- Never wanting to compromise because we know that Ring-Spun delivers the best quality for decoration and for the wearer, we have inspired the European market.
Consistent service means customer confidence:
- Stock availability: 25 000 000 pcs daily in our warehouse
- 24/48 H delivery in Europe
We’re passionate about supporting your business:
- Powerful communication tools
- Our dedicated team of B&C Promotors are on the road everyday, providing individual support and advice
