Origination is a fee charged for the setting up and the creation of templates (Printing Screens/Embroidery Digitisation/Jacquards/Photo Etched Plates) to apply your logo in the correct format to the product. In the majority of cases origination charges for repeat orders are free or reduced for the same product and logo.
We may ask for a copy of your logo once we receive you request for a quotation if your logo is more complex. Alternatively, you can email your logo and pantone references if you are happy to proceed to order and receive an artwork proof.
Each colour in your logo will have a unique colour reference. The most common references are referred to as Pantone references for solid spot colours or CMYK for digital print. If you have these references, please email these with your order, alternatively we will match the colours to your logo on the artwork proof.
Each product has an artwork proof that is emailed to you for your approval prior to production. This will show you how your logo will look on the product to check for sizing and colours.
