OEM vs ODM

  • OEM: we make your design from your drawing, photo or sample.
  • ODM: you choose from our designs and we adapt the size, colour or material for you.

Writing a Good Design Brief

  • Reference photos or a sketch with dimensions
  • Material and colour (Pantone codes help)
  • Handles, lids, liners or frames
  • Target price and quantity per design

Labels, Tags and Packaging

We can add woven or printed labels, hang tags, barcodes and branded cartons. Send your artwork early, as printed items need their own lead time.

Sampling and Approval

Samples are usually ready in 7–15 days. Expect one or two rounds of changes for a new design before you approve it for production.
