Track record
Who we manufacture for
Meridian draws on the FTS Global supply chain — the same facilities and teams that produce for these brands.
Logos are shown to describe manufacturing experience within the FTS Global group. All trademarks are the property of their respective owners; their inclusion does not imply endorsement of Meridian Blanks.
Two ways to buy
Stock when you need it now. Custom when you need it yours.
Most suppliers do one or the other. Running both means you can launch on stock this month and move the winners onto your own spec next season — without changing supplier, quality standard or account manager.

Fabric & construction
The parts nobody photographs
Anyone can sell you a 180 gsm tee. What separates a good blank from a cheap one is what happens after the knitting — how it's washed, how it's cut, and whether the second order matches the first.
Long-staple combed ringspun cotton
Combing removes the short fibres that cause pilling and a scratchy hand. Ringspinning twists what's left into a finer, stronger yarn.
Garment-washed, under 3% residual shrinkage
Shrunk before you get it, not after your customer washes it. Tested to the same standard every run.
Side-seamed, no seam twist
Tubular bodies are cheaper and torque in the wash. Ours are cut and sewn with a true side seam.
Twill tape shoulder to shoulder
Taped seams stop the neckline stretching out. Self-fabric collar, not a bought-in rib.
Double-needle hems throughout
Sleeve, bottom and neck. It's the detail that survives industrial laundering.
Dye-lot matched across styles
A tee and a hoodie in the same colour are the same colour — and still match on reorder.
Every batch is tested for colourfastness, shrinkage and restricted substances in our own laboratory in Delhi — accredited by NABL, UKAS, CPSC and ILAC. Not sent out to a queue.

Private label
The only name in it is yours
Our tearaway comes out and yours goes in. By the time it reaches your customer there is no evidence we were involved — which is the point.
Your woven label
Tearaway removed, your label sewn into the neck or side seam.
Custom neck print
Printed inner neck branding in place of a label entirely.
Your hangtags & packaging
Hangtags, poly bags, tissue, stickers — applied before it ships.
Care & content compliance
Correct fibre content, care symbols and country of origin for your market.
Barcoding & retail-ready
Your GTINs, price tickets and carton labelling to retailer spec.
Blind dropship
Ships direct to your customer from our warehouse, on your paperwork.
Decoration
Decorated and shipped in five business days
Decoration happens in-house, so a decorated order doesn't hand off to a third party and lose a week. Because the print step is digital, there are no screen charges and no reason to over-order.
Direct-to-garment
Full colour on finished blanks. No screens and no setup charge, so short runs stay economical.
Screen print
For volume graphic runs where unit cost matters more than setup.
Embroidery
Computerised multi-head, plus appliqué and sequin work.
Direct-to-fabric
Printed at the roll before cutting — all-over patterns and engineered placements.
Heat transfer & vinyl
Names, numbers and short-run personalisation.
Print-on-demand
Produce against real orders. Test a range, keep what sells, drop the rest.
Responsibility
Certified fibre, and the paperwork to prove it
Organic and recycled options across the core range, with transaction certificates on request — so a claim on your label is one you can actually substantiate.
GOTS organic cotton
Certified organic across the core tee and fleece programme.
Recycled blends
GRS-certified recycled cotton and polyester options.
Lower-impact printing
Digital print uses a fraction of the water of conventional dyeing.
Traceable supply
Documented from fibre to finished carton, audited to BSCI and Sedex.
How it works
Four steps, one contact
- 01
Sample pack
Tell us the categories you care about. We ship a pack of the actual garments so you can feel the weight before committing to anything.
- 02
Pick your program
Stock for speed, Custom for a garment that is entirely yours, or both — most brands end up running both.
- 03
Decorate & relabel
Print, stitch, relabel and pack in-house. One purchase order covers the blank and everything done to it.
- 04
Ship
To you, to your 3PL, or blind-dropshipped to your customer.
Who it's for
Built for people who sell the garment, not the blank
Streetwear & emerging brands
Heavyweight, boxy, garment-dyed. 100 units to test a drop, real factory capacity when it works.
Agencies & merch
Client-ready quality, blind dropship, and one contact who answers on deadline.
Corporate & uniform
Consistent colour across sites and reorders, size range to 4XL, compliance documentation included.
Print-on-demand & e-commerce
Stock held for you, decorated per order, shipped direct with no inventory risk.
Questions
The things people ask first
Is there a minimum order?
Yes. Blanks run a 100-unit minimum per style, and cut-and-sew is 300 units per style. Sample packs sit outside that entirely — you can hold the actual garments before committing to either.
How fast do orders actually ship?
Undecorated stock leaves the warehouse within 48 hours. Add decoration and it ships in five business days. Custom production runs 45–105 days depending on region — Turkey and Morocco at the fast end, Nepal at the slow.
Can you ship direct to my customers?
Yes. Blind dropship on your paperwork, with your packaging and hangtags. Nothing identifies us.
What if I need a colour you don't stock?
Custom colour is a Custom program build — matched to Pantone, with minimums per colour per style. If the volume works we can add it to your held allocation.
Will my reorder match my first order?
Yes. Colours are dye-lot matched across styles and across reorders, and every batch is tested in our own laboratory rather than sent to a third-party queue.
Can I get samples before committing?
That's the first step. Tell us the categories that matter and we'll send the actual garments — weights and hand feel are impossible to judge from a screen.
What's behind it
A blanks label with forty-years behind it
Meridian isn't a reseller putting its name on someone else's stock. The garments come out of FTS Global — wholly owned factories, an accredited laboratory, and teams in nineteen cities that already make product for luxury houses and high-street retailers.
