Sample Sourcing
From Idea to Sample
See it, test it, trust it — before you go to print.
We source materials, finishes, and product samples so you can evaluate quality, make confident decisions, and get internal approvals before production starts. Whether you’re testing papers, packaging, displays, or print finishes — we take care of the details and get samples in your hands, fast.
Approving specs based on a mockup or PDF alone is a gamble — especially for materials, packaging, or display pieces. Physical samples reduce errors, speed up decision-making, and prevent expensive reruns. We act as your sourcing arm, connecting with trusted vendors and managing everything from request to delivery.
Paper and material samples
We provide swatches and test prints on stock options — including coated/uncoated, recycled, or specialty materials.
Print finish samples
Test embossing, foil, UV coatings, varnishes, and laminates before committing to a full run.
Structural samples for packaging and displays
We coordinate mockups for folding cartons, POS displays, wobblers, shelf elements, and other physical structures.
Production-simulated prototypes
We source near-final samples that reflect the actual print method and finishing process — not just an inkjet mockup.
Sample logistics and documentation
We label, track, and ship samples to the right people — with supporting info, specs, and cost options included.
We’re not just ordering samples — we’re controlling risk.
Our team works with vetted vendors, knows what questions to ask, and filters out substandard proposals before they reach your desk. The result: better approvals, faster workflows, and fewer surprises in production.
How quickly can you deliver print or packaging samples? In many cases, within a few working days — depending on the vendor, finish type, and location.
Can we test multiple options before deciding? Yes. We can request comparative samples across substrates, finishes, or production methods to help you choose with confidence.
Do your samples reflect actual production conditions? Wherever possible, yes. We work with vendors who can simulate the final production method — not just produce a visual reference.
Can you handle sample requests across multiple countries? Absolutely. We ship samples globally and coordinate delivery to multiple stakeholders — fast and traceable.
What if we need a sample urgently for a pitch or client presentation? We’ll prioritize speed, pull from our extended vendor network or our paper and print sample archive — even if it’s just a one-off visual mockup. Samples can be sent to you by express or immediately by courier.
We ensure:
Samples reflect real-world production specs and tolerances
Quick sourcing from trusted suppliers across Europe and beyond
Clear comparison of options by cost, availability, and lead time
Expert advice on feasibility, suitability, and potential risks
Delivery to multiple team members, departments, or decision-makers
