            "content": "Dear Portugal Textile team,\n\nI am the founder of a new German brand (currently in founding) for washable\nincontinence underwear for adults aged 20 to 45, in particular women with\nMS \/ neurogenic bladder and women after childbirth. We will place the\nproduct on the EU market as a Class I medical device under the EU Medical\nDevice Regulation (MDR).\n\nFor our premium line, production in the EU would be a strong quality and\ntrust signal. We would therefore like to ask whether you can produce\nleak-proof underwear (absorbent core + waterproof barrier) under private\nlabel, or work with a partner who supplies the functional layers.\n\nPRODUCT REQUIREMENTS\n- Style: women's hipster (mid-rise), looks like normal underwear; bonded\nleg edges; printed labels\n- Two absorbency levels: approx. 50-60 ml and approx. 100-150 ml (urine)\n- Soft top layer (Lyocell\/TENCEL, modal or organic cotton), absorbent core,\nPFAS-free TPU\/PUL barrier\n- Sizes XS to XXL, colour black\n- Washable at 60 \u00b0C, 100+ wash cycles\n\nQUESTIONS\n1. Do you have experience with period or incontinence underwear (laminated\nbarrier layers)?\n2. MOQ per style\/colour; can sizes and absorbency levels be mixed?\n3. Indicative unit price at 300 \/ 500 \/ 1,000 \/ 3,000 pcs\n4. Development time, sample cost and lead time for the first order\n5. Certifications (OEKO-TEX, GOTS, ISO 9001 \/ 13485) and available test\nreports\n6. Lot traceability and willingness to sign a quality agreement\n7. Payment terms\n\nWe would be glad to arrange a short call.\n\nBest regards,\nYoussri Krouma\nFounder\nalvura.projekt@gmail.com\nGermany",

            "content": "Hello Youssri,\n\nThank you for reaching out to us regarding your new brand for washable incontinence underwear. We appreciate your interest in producing your premium line within the EU.\n\nTo proceed with evaluating your project, I need to gather some specific details:\n\n1. **Tech Pack or Physical Sample:** Do you have a Tech Pack or a Physical Sample for the women's hipster style you described?\n2. **Quantities:** What is the total quantity you intend to produce per style and per colour? Please note that our minimum order quantity for underwear is 1,000 units per style and per colour.\n3. **Target Price:** What is your maximum target production price per style?\n4. **Desired Delivery Date:** What is your desired delivery timeline? Please keep in mind that our minimum project cycle is at least 5 full calendar months from the current date.\n\nRegarding your questions about experience with incontinence underwear, certifications, and other technical details, these will be addressed in the next phase by our production team once we have completed the initial commercial evaluation.\n\nPlease note that all initial project evaluations are conducted through this channel to assess the commercial viability before any meetings or team assignments. \n\nI look forward to your response with the requested details.\n\nBest regards, \n\nMatilde Azevedo",

            "content": "Dear Matilde,\n\nThank you for your reply and the clear information.\n\nHere are our answers:\n1. Tech pack \/ sample: We do not have a full tech pack yet. We have a\nproduct specification and are currently testing reference samples; we can\nshare both in the next phase.\n2. Quantities: Our launch order (early 2027) will be smaller than 1,000\nunits per style and will be produced in Asia. A production in Portugal with\n1,000 units per style and colour would be relevant for our premium \"Made in\nEU\" line from the second half of 2027.\n3. Target price: To be discussed once we know whether the leak-proof\nconstruction (absorbent core + laminated waterproof barrier) is feasible in\nyour factory. Could you let us know whether you have produced period or\nincontinence underwear before?\n4. Delivery: Q3 2027 at the earliest, so a 5-month project cycle would work\nfor this line.\n\nWe would be happy to stay in contact and come back to you with a tech pack\nin early 2027.\n\nBest regards,\nYoussri Krouma\nFounder\nalvura.projekt@gmail.com\nGermany\n\nOn Wed, Oct 21, 2026 11:53 AM, Matilde Azevedo \nwrote:\n\n> Hello Youssri,\n>\n> Thank you for reaching out to us regarding your new brand for washable\n> incontinence underwear.
