Single Point Accountability in Technical Textile Development
Dobtho structures technical textile programmes so performance, compliance, and delivery are addressed together. We act as the single accountable party from product definition through to production readiness.
In regulated environments, fragmented responsibility creates delay and risk. When materials, testing, manufacturing, and compliance are handled separately, decisions conflict and accountability weakens. Dobtho removes this fragmentation by owning the development pathway end to end.
What we own
Dobtho defines the product requirement, structures the development pathway, and manages execution through to production readiness. Performance targets, regulatory requirements, and manufacturing constraints are aligned before decisions are fixed.
Clients engage Dobtho as the coordinating owner of development and delivery. We manage technical, operational, and compliance activity within a single framework, removing the need to manage multiple parties.
Our work spans regulated technical textile environments including safety and protective systems, mobility and transport, buildings and infrastructure, hygiene and filtration, and circular textile applications, with a consistent focus on structuring the development and delivery pathway rather than supplying predefined products.
Governance and Assurance
All manufacturing activity supporting Dobtho programmes operates under defined ethical and operational standards. These include Sedex certification, ISO 9001 quality management systems, ISO 14001 environmental management systems, commitments to preventing modern slavery, and alignment with WRAP principles.
Dobtho maintains oversight throughout development and transition to production. Testing, quality systems, and compliance documentation are aligned under a single governance structure.
Scale and Supply Continuity
Dobtho’s capability is supported by a manufacturing network employing more than 3,000 people across multiple technical textile verticals. This provides access to established processes, equipment, and capacity without dependency on a single route or supplier.
Dobtho also supports organisations where supply chain concentration limits long term delivery. Through structured product development and controlled manufacturing pathways, alternative routes are established without compromising performance or compliance.
Who This Is For
This model is for organisations operating in regulated environments that require a clear owner for technical textile development and delivery. It suits teams that need certainty on how a product will be defined, approved, manufactured, and supplied. Dobtho is engaged to own the outcome.
