Who Makes Tech Packs?
A tech pack is a very important document, but its creation usually falls to specific experts who understand the “language” of manufacturing and are specialised in working with digital tools. Depending on your brand’s size and budget, the person behind the file changes and can vary , we analyse bellow the Most Common Solutions for creating a tech pack in 2026.
1. Professional Roles (In-House) – Mostly by Designer Led Brands or Large Corporate Brands.
In this cases the brand has an in house team responsible to produce new files for products to make and submit them to manufacturers, below the main roles.
Cost: Can be Very High, Requires high Sales volume to justify expensive salaries.
- Technical Designer: The industry standard. They specialize in fit, construction, and grading. Unlike creative designers, they focus on how a garment is built rather than just how it looks.
- Fashion Designer: In smaller labels, the lead designer often creates the tech pack. They translate their creative vision into technical flats using software like Adobe Illustrator.
- Product Developer: They often manage the Bill of Materials (BOM) and sourcing, ensuring every zipper and button is correctly documented.
2. External Services & Freelancers – Common for Startup Brands.
- Freelance Technical Designers: Found on platforms like Upwork, Cad Crowd, or Pietra. This is the a common route for independent brands in 2026.
- Tech Pack Agencies: Firms like J Mitchell Design or Tech Pack Factory provide end-to-end development, ensuring the PDF is “factory-ready” to minimize sampling errors.
- Main Risk: Can be too generic and not fit your manufacturers request or baseline requirements.
3. Manufacturing Partners like ASBX Portugal.
