Capabilities

Everything the garment needs, under one roof.

Most projects need more than a print. We handle decoration, sourcing, branding details, and packaging as a single scoped production run.

01

Screen Printing

Multi-color runs on automatic presses. Water-based, plastisol, discharge, and specialty inks with consistent placement across full runs.

02

Embroidery

Flat, 3D puff, and tonal stitching for uniform programs, headwear, and heavyweight garments. Digitizing handled in-house.

03

DTF

Full-color transfers for complex artwork, small runs, performance fabrics, and per-variant production without screen setups.

04

Custom Apparel Manufacturing

Cut-and-sew development from tech pack through graded production, with sampling rounds and factory-level documentation.

05

Garment / Blanks Sourcing

Blank selection matched to fit, weight, and budget — stock verification and allocation before production is committed.

06

Labels & Tags

Relabeling, woven labels, printed neck tags, hem tags, and hangtags so the finished garment reads as your brand.

07

Packaging

Fold, polybag, sticker, and insert options prepared for retail, DTC fulfillment, or event distribution.

08

Finishing

Garment dye, wash treatments, distressing, and pressing to shift the feel of a blank into a finished product.

09

Custom Work

Non-standard requests: mixed decoration, hybrid runs, unusual substrates, and one-off production problems.

Who we work with

Production partners, not order forms.

01

Clothing Brands

Capsules, restocks, and relabeled programs with the finish quality retail expects.

02

Businesses

Uniform programs, staff apparel, and reorder systems across multiple locations.

03

Organizations

Teams, schools, nonprofits, and clubs with size breakdowns and split distribution.

04

Creators

Drops sized to real demand, produced without holding unnecessary inventory.

05

Events

Hard on-sale dates, per-city variants, and shipments routed to multiple venues.

How it works

A scoped process, start to finish.

You don't need production vocabulary to start. You need a clear path from idea to delivered boxes.

  1. 01

    Submit the project

    Share what you know — garment, quantity, artwork, timeline. If you're unsure, the form walks you through it.

  2. 02

    Scope & quote

    We confirm decoration method, blanks, and finishing, then send a written quote with clear line items.

  3. 03

    Artwork & approval

    Art is prepped to production spec. You approve placement, sizing, and colors before anything runs.

  4. 04

    Sourcing & production

    Blanks are allocated and the run is scheduled, with status tracked through every production stage.

  5. 05

    Finishing & QC

    Labels, tags, packaging, and inspection before anything is packed out.

  6. 06

    Delivery

    Packed to spec and shipped where it needs to go — retail, warehouse, venue, or door.

Why RICE LABS

Built to make the finished product look intentional.

One accountable partner

Printing, embroidery, manufacturing, finishing, and packaging coordinated by one team instead of stitched across vendors.

Built for real production

In-house presses and a working facility, not a storefront reselling someone else's schedule.

Specs before surprises

Method, blanks, timeline, and cost defined up front so the invoice matches the quote.

Fashion-aware execution

Fit, weight, hand-feel, and finish treated as decisions — because they're what makes the garment sell.
