Sock production: from yarn to a packed order
Sock production is a chain of clearly separated steps. Knowing the sequence makes timing, cost and quality easier to judge. Here is the path from yarn to a packed, export-ready order.
Knowing the steps of sock production helps you judge timing, cost and quality. Here is the path from raw yarn to a packed, export-ready order.
Yarn, knitting and finishing
It starts with yarn: combed and mercerized cotton, bamboo, modal, wool or technical blends, checked on arrival. Electronic machines knit single and double-cylinder constructions; then linking, washing, boarding and shaping give consistent sizing and a clean finish on every pair.
Quality control
Checks run along the line, not only at the end: incoming yarn control, knitting and size checks, colour matching against the approved sample, mid-production inspection, and a final check before dispatch.
Branding, packing and export
The last step makes the sock retail-ready: woven or printed labels, hang tags, size stickers, EAN barcodes, and polybags, custom boxes or retail-ready packs. Then the export documents are prepared (commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, EUR.1). Bulk usually takes 3 to 4 weeks after approval; the sample, 5 to 7 business days.
Because every step runs in our own factory at EGE SOCKS, one team owns the whole sequence, which keeps quality and timing steady across reorders.
