OUR HISTORY
From our roots in 1960s East London as a small family business to becoming a global design and manufacturing
partner, Pentex has grown through one defining value: uncompromising integrity.
We believe in doing what’s right—even when it’s not the easiest route. That means delivering on our promises, prioritising people over profits, and holding ourselves to the highest ethical and operational standards.
Every stitch we sew, every partnership we build, and every garment we ship reflects our commitment to doing business that honours the Pentex ethos.

OUR PARTNERS
The fashion industry moves quickly, and we stay agile and responsive to keep pace—pushing your collections to stay one step ahead. Our partnerships span the UK, UAE, Canada, Australia, USA and New Zealand, whilst our manufacturing portfolio spans Bangladesh, China, Egypt, Indonesia and Cambodia.
OUR PROCESS
From design, to sourcing, and manufacture, we have the experts on hand to bring your ideas to life. From our design studio, based in our bustling London HQ, we bring a global mindset to your collections. Our experienced in house design team bring fresh visions and knowledge of trends to the cutting table, and work closely with fabric development and technical garment teams.
This tight knit synergy means we can and operate on an accelerated critical path process, including pre-testing raw materials and self-sealing.
When sourcing fabrics and trims, our well-established global network enables us to respond swiftly to trends, accessing materials from China, Korea, Europe, and the UK to fulfill our ‘speed to market’ promise. We uphold our workers' protections with care.
All fabrics are produced in approved mills and undergo regular testing and inspections as part of our commitment to quality. Our team routinely visits these mills and international fairs to ensure our materials are innovative, enabling our design team to craft the best possible products. Our process leverages cutting-edge technology such as CLO 3D Design and Adobe Substance software to deliver 3D design samples and a fully integrated fitting process. Using Digi-Eye technology with our suppliers and customers, we achieve fast, accurate color and print matching, reducing lead times and supporting a more sustainable, low-waste approach.
