Minku Apparel is a custom t-shirt manufacturer for brands across Sweden, producing Scandi-grade heavyweight tees from 50 pieces per design with full private-label finishing. We run 180 to 240 GSM combed cotton, decorate in-house with screen print, DTG, and embroidery, sample before bulk, and ship DDP to any Swedish address in roughly 6 to 9 days by air. For a Swedish label built on clean design and material honesty, this is the factory that delivers a blank worth building a brand on.
This page covers how we manufacture tees for the Swedish market: cotton weights and cuts for a cold climate, in-house decoration and private labelling, MOQ and pricing in Swedish kronor, sampling, and DDP shipping with EU import VAT already handled.
Why the tee fits the Swedish market
Sweden exports a design philosophy the whole world imitates: minimalist, functional, quietly premium. Swedish streetwear brands, from Stockholm out to Gothenburg and Malmo, tend to sell restraint – the perfect blank, a considered palette, tonal branding, and construction that speaks for itself. That national taste for quality-over-noise makes the garment the entire proposition, so a Swedish label needs a heavyweight combed-cotton tee built with real precision. And with Sweden’s long, cold winters, the tee here is nearly always a base layer under heavier pieces for much of the year, so weight and structure are not optional.
Cotton weight, fit, and construction
Precision defines a Swedish product. Combed cotton runs from a 180 GSM mid-weight to a dense 240 GSM heavyweight, in a boxy structured drop, a fitted classic, an oversized block, or a cropped cut. Ring-spun yarns give a smooth, clean face and a soft hand, and side seams, double-needle stitching, and a ribbed set-in collar hold the exact shape a design-led label demands. For Sweden’s cold climate, a 220 to 240 GSM combed cotton is the standard base-layer weight – substantial under a heavier layer, clean enough to wear alone in the short summer. Every measurement is logged on your tech pack so reorders across the country match precisely.
Decoration and private label for Swedish brands
We run every decoration method in-house, dialled for restraint. Screen print gives crisp, opaque graphics suited to small, exact logos, DTG handles detailed art with no minimum penalty, and puff or flat embroidery adds a quiet tonal mark. Garment dye delivers the muted, considered colours the Swedish market favours. Every tee carries your woven inside label, neck tape, and hem tag – and for a customer who inspects the inside of a garment, that internal finish matters as much as the print. Owning the blank, the fit, and the branding is what turns a Swedish startup into a real label rather than a decorated wholesale shirt.
MOQ and pricing in kronor
Minimum is 50 pieces per tee design, so a Swedish founder can launch a tight capsule before scaling. Pricing is quoted with Swedish kronor in mind and tracks cotton weight, cut, and decoration, dropping as you move into reorders. We keep cost drivers transparent, which suits a market that pays for quality but expects honesty about what drives the price. Request a quote for landed cost per unit anywhere in Sweden.
Sampling before bulk
We sample before every bulk run – essential when material quality is your whole pitch. Once specs are locked we produce a pre-production tee so you can check the cotton weight, the drop, the collar, and the print registration in person before the run. Send artwork, a reference tee to match, or a full tech pack; we help build one if you do not have it. Every spec is recorded, so the sample you approve is the tee you receive. For a Swedish label whose whole reputation rests on consistency, that logged spec is what lets a customer reorder a year later and get an identical garment – the same weight, the same drop, the same clean collar – which is exactly the trust a quality-first brand is built on.
DDP shipping and VAT across Sweden
Tees are light per unit, so air freight is efficient and we ship Delivered Duty Paid. DDP means EU import VAT and customs clearance are already inside your landed price – no broker invoice after delivery to Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmo, or anywhere else. Air freight lands your order at a Swedish address in about 6 to 9 days once QC clears. Because tees pack flat and light, replenishing a clean core seller between seasons is quick and predictable.
