Custom flatware manufacturer for private label and OEM programmes

Three ways to start a custom flatware programme

Private label flatware: you choose an existing pattern from our catalogs, add your packaging and branding, and order. It is the fastest route and suits a first collection.

Adapted pattern: you take a catalog silhouette and change the handle, the finish, the proportions or the detailing. The catalog says a pattern is only held exclusive once its form and detailing have been changed.

New development: you bring a sketch, a photo or a physical reference piece, and we turn it into a sampled pattern.

How custom flatware development runs

Brief: send a sketch, reference photo or sample, the pieces you need, the finish and the handle material. The more you tell us about your customer and shelf price, the better we can steer the build.

Proposal: we suggest a construction, a finish and a handle, and flag where a choice will affect cost or lead time.

Sample: we make a sample for your review. Sampling is quoted separately, and we confirm the steel gauge at this stage.

Approval and adjustments: you approve or request changes. Production starts after sample approval.

Production: the handmade range runs 40 to 60 days from sample approval.

Materials and compliance for your own label

Compliance points such as food-contact status, Proposition 65 and factory audits are listed on our flatware manufacturer page, so you can pass them to your retail customer. On steel, the catalogs name the grades we work with, and you should state the one your market expects when you brief us. For help choosing, see 18/10 vs 18/8 vs 18/0 flatware.

Quantities and quotes

Quantities depend on how much is new. A pattern with a new handle material needs different quantities from a catalog pattern with a new label. Tell us the pieces and the quantity you are considering, and we quote against that. Expect a reply within 24 hours and a quote within 48.
