FAQ
What work fits NAICS 315120?
- Contract manufacture of knit shirts, sweaters, and pullovers to provided patterns and size ranges, including sewn-in labels and finished trimming.
- Produce knitted socks and hosiery with specified fiber blends, size grading, reinforced toe and heel construction, and bulk or retail packaging.
- Knit garments incorporating flame-resistant or certified fiber treatments with accompanying fiber-content test reports and compliance documentation.
- Deliver finished knit garments with batch-level quality control reports, lot tagging, barcodes, and palletized shipments to distribution points.
When is NAICS 315120 a weak fit?
- Cut-and-sew apparel contracting - projects that only cut and sew woven fabrics without knitting new fabric lack the knit-production step required under apparel knitting mills.
- Textile mill production of knit fabric rolls - manufacturing knit yardage for resale to apparel manufacturers is fabric production rather than finished garment production.
- Garment alteration, tailoring, or repair services - on-site adjustments, repairs, or tailoring of garments do not include factory knitting and finishing production processes.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 315120?
- Line items specifying knitting machine types, stitch counts, yarn denier, knit gauge, and fiber-content requirements for each garment style.
- Deliverables requiring size-graded production lots, inspection certificates, fiber-content test reports, sewn-in labels, and barcodes per lot.
- Requirements for factory finishing operations such as linking, seaming, steaming, final inspection, packaging counts per carton, and pallet labels.
