The 13.5-Micron Revolution: Finer Than Cashmere
In the world of luxury fibers, lower micron numbers equal higher softness. Standard cashmere ranges between 15 and 16.5 microns. Our rare 13.5-micron Merino Wool breaks the paradigm.
Unrivaled Softness: It provides a buttery, liquid-like drape that feels even smoother than traditional cashmere.
Zero Irritation: The fibers are so microscopic that they easily bend when touching the skin, making "wool itch" physically impossible—perfect for a high-neck garment sitting directly against the sensitive neck area.
Advanced OEM: Mastering 16-Gauge Knitting
Very few factories in the world can successfully mass-produce 16GG knitwear. WFS Cashmere is equipped with state-of-the-art fine-gauge machinery:
Precision Tension Control: Knitting 3/85NM yarn requires perfect environmental humidity and meticulous machine calibration to prevent yarn breakage and ensure a flawless, even stitch without any slant.
Flawless Linking: The seams on a 16GG garment must be virtually invisible. Our highly skilled linking operators ensure the armholes and collar are seamlessly attached, maintaining the garment's second-skin profile.
Custom Necklines: We can adjust the collar tension to be a relaxed mock neck or a structured turtleneck based exactly on your brand's aesthetic.
Certified Quality & Traceability
OEKO-TEX Standard 100: We guarantee that our ultra-fine yarns and dyes are free from harmful chemicals.
Ethical Manufacturing: Backed by WRAP certification, we strictly adhere to sustainable development practices.
Frequently Asked Questions (OEM/B2B FAQ)
Q1: What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) for 16GG pullovers?
A: Despite the high technical difficulty, we maintain our standard MOQ of 100 pieces per style/color to support luxury brands in launching premium capsule collections.
Q2: Will a 16GG ultra-fine pullover pill easily?
A: Surprisingly, no. Because the 16-gauge knit is incredibly tight and dense, and the 13.5-micron fibers are extra-long, there is very little surface friction or loose fibers, resulting in excellent anti-pilling performance.
Q3: Can we add a subtle embroidered logo to this lightweight knit?
A: Yes, but it requires extreme precision so as not to pucker the delicate fabric. We use specialized, lightweight backing for high-definition micro-embroidery near the hem or chest.
Q4: Can this be made in a V-neck or Crew neck?
A: Absolutely. We can apply this exact 16GG, 13.5-micron technical package to any classic silhouette your brand requires.
