| Know before using | The company count is a changing platform claim. Search fields, profiles, certificates, locations, and account access do not independently verify the legal entity, factory ownership, capability, capacity, certificate validity or scope, compliance performance, delivery, or project fit. Confirm the site and subcontracting, credentials with issuers, samples, audits when appropriate, specifications, contracts, and commercial terms. | This is a commercial, self-submission directory for one São Paulo shopping district, not a Brazil-wide shop census or independent material assessment. Listing, wording, contact data, and product keywords may come from the business. Confirm current operation, retail access, stock, fibre content, width, weight, lot, units, minimums, price, payment, accessibility, returns, and travel safety directly. The interface is Portuguese. | An orientation rather than a completed product record; it does not supply a universal format, licensed standard content, measurements, tolerances, construction settings, labels, approvals, compliance conclusion, or product-release authority. |

| What the source establishes | FOURSOURCE's current public network page presents an operator-reported global company count and country or territory search. It says logged-in users can narrow results by compliance certificates, product groups, fabric types, target groups, minimum order quantities, and other fields, with a free-trial and supplier sign-up route. | The live category page reported 119 fabric and remnant listings inside a 3,355-business Brás guide, exposes address and contact routes, supports street-level browsing, and states that businesses may submit a free profile for team review. | The guide cites published ISO sources for documented-information, garment-measurement, stitch, and seam boundaries plus current U.S. FTC textile and care-labeling guidance; it discloses that ISO 10013:2021's 2026 systematic review is at close-of-review stage and separates every cited authority from product-specific technical and market decisions. |
