What this one is
A5 sample book with a PU cover
The book is built at A5, which is small enough to be carried into a meeting and large enough for the swatches to be read without a separate reference sheet. Each page pairs a mounted fabric swatch with its printed specification, and the pages are printed from your own data. The PU cover over the book block is what keeps it usable after it has been passed around a table several times. Swatch size and page count follow the range.
- A5 format — Carried to meetings, still readable.
- Swatch mounted with its data — Specification printed on the same page.
- Printed from your data — Not a fixed catalogue layout.
- PU cover over the block — Holds up to being handled.
What we can change for you
Your real materials, on your card
This item is not picked off a shelf. Every part of it is specified before it is made, and these are the parts buyers change most often on a color & shade cards programme. Send whatever you have — a drawing, a photo of a sample you like, or a rough sketch — and we quote against it.
- Format — Fan deck, booklet, loose-leaf binder, wall chart, hanging swatch card or a boxed set.
- Card stock — Paper, board, laminated board, PU, fabric, TPU, metal or PVC, in the weight you specify.
- Sample attachment — Stapled, glued, riveted, sewn, die-cut window or a removable swatch.
- Layout — Colour name, code, texture name and technical data printed to your layout, in your language.
- Binding — Rivet, screw post, ring, spiral or loose sheets with a punch pattern you choose.
- Packing — Boxed set, printed sleeve, shrink wrap or carton only.
Anything not on this list is a question rather than a no. We work from your artwork or a rough sketch, and cutting dies and covers are engineered in-house — so a change costs you a conversation, not a new supplier.
How your order is made
Tooling, printing and binding on our own line
Every swatch card is a physical sample, so the cutting and attaching are done by hand where the material demands it. Codes and names are printed to your list and proofed before the run.
- Tooling and dies — cutting dies and covers are engineered in-house, so a change to the shape is a conversation rather than a new supplier.
- Printing and finishing — offset and screen printing, foil stamping, blind debossing, spot UV and edge painting all run on site.
- In-line QC — checks at cutting, stitching and packing, not only at the end. You get the inspection photos before the cartons close.
- Export and documentation — cartons, pallets, labelling and shipping documents prepared to your forwarder specification. 94.8% of what we make is exported.

How to order
From spec to shipment in four steps
Most buyers have a sketch, a sample, or a brief. We turn it into a confirmed sample and then into a repeatable production run.
Product type, dimensions, quantity, logo, and deadline — even a photo is enough.
Unit price, tooling, sample cost, and lead time — usually within one working day.
We make a physical sample for your review before anything goes to bulk.
In-line QC, pre-shipment photos, then packed and shipped to your forwarder.

Working with us
Files, tooling and terms
The same terms apply to this item and to the rest of your order, so the budget and the schedule can be planned before anything is committed.
- Artwork — Vector files (AI, EPS, PDF or CDR) are what embossing, foil and screen print need. A photo, a sketch or a physical sample is enough to start — we tell you before anything is charged if a file has to be rebuilt.
- Tooling — Charged only when the item needs a new mould, die or deboss plate. It is quoted separately and stated upfront — never added later.
- Samples — A stock sample is free (you cover the courier). A customised sample is chargeable and the cost is credited against the production order once it is confirmed.
- Payment — Invoiced in US dollars from our company account. Standard terms are T/T — 30% deposit, 70% before shipment — or an L/C at sight for container orders.
- Shipping — FOB Ningbo or Shanghai, CIF, and DDP to Europe and North America. DDP includes duties and final-mile delivery.
- Mixed containers — Several categories can ship in one container, which is how buyers keep the quantity per item down while still filling a shipment.
- Confidentiality — We sign an NDA before you send drawings.
- Documents — One inspection report and one set of documents cover the whole order, whatever the mix of items.
Buyer questions
Can each card carry a different real material?
Yes — that is the point of a shade card. Send the material pieces or their specifications and we attach the actual material rather than a printed representation of it.
How do you keep the printed colour from drifting from the real material?
We match the printed code block to the physical swatch under the light you specify, and we keep an approved master. Reprints are matched to that master, not to a screen.
Can the card be updated without reprinting the whole set?
Yes. Loose-leaf and ring formats let you replace single cards, which is usually cheaper over a season than reprinting a bound deck.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Minimums are set per item, and a hand-attached card carries a higher minimum than a printed one. The exact figure is confirmed with your quote.
Can you supply the swatch book and the product it describes?
Yes. Colour cards and sample books are often part of the same programme as the goods, and both ship as one order.
