tech Pack
What is a Tech Pack? A “Tech Pack” is a set of design or style sheets which contain all the necessary specifications to construct a garment or a sewn product for prototype or production purposes. Tech pack formats can vary greatly from manufacturer to manufacturer; some are in an Excel spreadsheet format and some are in a template format that can be completed by hand. What are the necessary elements of a Tech Pack? A “Tech Pack” must list all the materials and components of any specific garment or sewn product on a worksheet. The elements of a tech pack should include separate sheets for fabrics, trims, color ways, measurements, grade rules, and all related vendor information. At a minimum each tech pack should have the style number, season, size range, block number, specs, flat sketch, fabrics, and colors per style. These documents are generated and completed by the technical designer and finalized with merchandisers.
