| Know before using | A factory profile, platform label, bid, estimate, or message does not establish current identity, factory ownership, capability, capacity, workmanship, pricing, compliance, delivery, or project fit. Paid-plan visibility can affect who responds. Verify the production site, subcontracting, references, samples, quality and compliance records, specifications, commercial terms, and remedies directly. | The ACCC explicitly describes this page as an overview that suppliers must not use as a complete compliance guide. It is not the registered instrument or the full licensed text of AS/NZS 1957:1998 or ISO 3758:2012, and it does not classify a product, select or approve instructions, or cover fibre content, origin, children's nightwear, chemicals, general product safety, every state or territory issue, or legal advice. Check the current instrument, exact product scope and exemptions, incorporated text, label execution, related rules, records, and enforcement guidance before supply. | The record does not create a production grade, supply universal increments or breakpoints, validate a CAD file or fit population, reproduce licensed standards, or replace qualified anthropometric, pattern, technical-design, fit, quality, accessibility, safety, statistical, and user-research review. |

| What the source establishes | Maker's Row currently lets a brand submit a project before advance sign-up, then provides access to an account. Its project workflow records product details and files and connects projects with factories by location and specialty. Search guidance lists apparel capabilities such as pattern making, sourcing, sample making, and production. Factory access to bids is plan-dependent. | The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission Product Safety page identifies the Consumer Goods (Care Labelling) Information Standard 2023 as the mandatory rule for prescribed clothing, household textiles, furnishings, bedding, piece goods, textile yarns, leather, fur, and other listed goods. It publishes the main exclusions, states that suppliers may use English care instructions, the five internationally recognised care symbols, or both, and links the registered instrument and explanatory statement. It also states that the rule draws on specified parts of AS/NZS 1957:1998 and ISO 3758:2012 and that non-compliance can lead to penalties or a recall obligation. | The guide cites current ISO body-table, size-designation, and garment-measurement boundaries plus two peer-reviewed studies that tested the relationship between conventional grade rules, anthropometric evidence, and garment fit; it requires product-specific target deltas and validation instead of publishing universal increments. |
