Tax-free Company
Due to its compliance with all ethical trading laws and regulations, including the treatment of its employees, health insurance, and a fair wage package well above the minimum, King Trading was granted a tax-free license on the importation of fabrics. The license allows the importation of premium-grade recycled, sustainable fabrics from Carvico® and ECONYL® in Italy and REPREVE® in the United States, thereby reducing the production cost by 35%. For print requests, we provide a true digital print service on synthetic and natural fabrics and silk screen hand printing and dyeing using Pantone as a guide.
OUR DIVISIONS
The company operates three divisions: Swimwear, Activewear, and Ladieswear.
If you’re looking to start your own sustainable swimwear or activewear line, we can offer you the lowest prices and the highest quality of any producer on the island.

LADIESWEAR
NATURAL FABRIC COLLECTIONS
Product Design & Development
With your assistance, our skilled team of sample merchants will translate your designs into a commercially viable range of clothing assembled in any fabric, colour, or print of your choosing.
Pattern Making
Patters & grades are created from your tech packs, design sketches, real samples, or images, ensuring every article is tailored to perfection.
Patterns are created using 2D Auto CAD digital software.
Sampling
In our sample studio we run 60 sample specialists with at least ten years of experience, responsible for sewing samples, making patterns, and producing custom made samples on request.
Production
We assemble orders using high-speed German machines to ensure export quality standards. Production follows a tried and tested method from cutting fabrics to assembly, QC, and delivery.
MOQS
In most cases, our MOQ for bulk orders is 300 pieces, 30 pieces per style, and three pieces per size, colour, and print. The MOQ is determined by the fabric you select. If you choose to produce long silk dresses, the MOQ may be as low as 100 in total. If you wish to produce crop tops & shorts, the MOQ could be 500. Please contact us with your handover of designs & we’ll let you know what we can do.
There is no limit to the number of designs, colours or prints you can combine.
We produce max 6 sizes per design.
NATURAL FABRIC SWATCH PACKS
In Bali, more than 1,000 natural fabrics are available for dyeing and printing. If you do not know the fabric you intend to use and the fabric supplier details, requesting a swatch pack of natural fabrics is best. As part of each pack, we include 16 actual swatches of the best-selling fabrics dyed in random colours to give you an idea of their texture, weight and hand feel. When you have a pack in hand, you will be much better positioned to select the ideal fabric for the articles you wish to produce.
If you’re in Bali, we recommend visiting Warna Jaya in Denpasar, as they carry the largest variety of fabrics on the island.
PLAIN DYE & PRINTS
Plain Dye
Due to the scarcity of pre-dyed natural fabrics in Bali, we use Pantone as a reference to dye your colours on request. If, for example, you are looking for a nude colour, add “Pantone Nude TPG” to Google, & you should see something like this. Select the colour you like & send the image as a screenshot.
Each colour swatch is USD 30 & takes five days to produce. The dyes come from Dystar in Germany, certified eco-friendly.
Prints
We print both by hand using silk screens and by machine, digitally. When printing by hand, there is a setup fee of 70 USD per colour, and once the motif has been prepared, printing costs are relatively low. The cost of digital printing is higher, and it is typically used for motifs with many colours and smaller print runs.
By hand, we have produced printed dresses, tops, and so on for David Jones & Myers in Australia, Urban Outfitters in the United States, and Top Shop in the United Kingdom.
