Samples, Prototypes and Proofs

Before a thousand displays or several hundred metres of graphics are produced, it's worth seeing one piece. We make test prints on the final material, colour proofs, cardboard mock-ups and 3D-printed prototypes — in-house, on the same machines used for production.
01

Specification

Test print
a fragment of the artwork in A3, on the material that will go into production
Contract proof
a colour reference from a pigment plotter, used to check the run against
Mock-ups
displays, packaging and stands cut and scored from cardboard on a plotter
3D prototypes
3D printing from the client's model or one we prepare, including large formats
Visualisation
a render or an advert placed on a photo of the site

Production options

Test print on the material

Shows how the artwork looks on a real banner, film or board, not on a screen. Most often chosen before large runs.

Contract proof

A certified colour reference that production is checked against. For brands that watch their corporate colours closely.

Display or packaging mock-up

An assembled cardboard piece for checking construction, dimensions and stability before the series.

3D-printed prototype

A spatial part, handle or letter fragment for fitting. Faster and cheaper than going straight to routing or a mould.

How we work

  1. What you want to check: colour, construction, size or how it looks on site.
  2. Choosing the type of sample and preparing the file or model.
  3. Making the sample on production machines or a proofing plotter.
  4. Approval, any fixes, and the start of series production.

Indicative price

The cost of a sample depends on its type and size. As a guide:

A3 test print on the final material
approx. PLN 55 net / pc
Certified contract proof
approx. PLN 160 net / pc
Installation visualisation / render
approx. PLN 310 net / pc
3D print — file preparation and print start
approx. PLN 60 net / job
3D print — machine time, standard printers
approx. PLN 60 net / hour + material
Cutting a cardboard mock-up on a plotter
approx. PLN 3 net / linear m of path

Approximate net rates, excluding shipping. The cost of an A3 test print is credited back on print orders over 20 m². A mock-up or prototype is quoted after we've seen the design.

Deadline? We fit the job around it.

Our standard lead time is about 3 working days, and up to 14 days for larger projects. That is only a starting point. We are the manufacturer, not a broker — we plan our own production queue, so we can move your job forward to meet an opening, event or campaign date.

  • approx. 3 daysstandard lead time
  • 24 hexpress printing — UV inks need no drying time
  • up to 14 dayslarge and non-standard projects with installation

FAQ · Samples, prototypes and proofs

Frequently asked questions

Will the test print show exactly the same colour as production?

We print it on the same material and the same machine as the run, so it's as close to production as possible. A contract proof, on the other hand, is a certified reference to compare against.

How much does a display mock-up cost?

It depends on size and construction, since we charge for cutting, scoring and material. For a series order, the mock-up cost is included in the whole project's quote.

Can I send my own 3D model?

Yes. We accept STL, OBJ or STEP files. If there's no model yet, we can prepare one from a drawing or a sample.

Can I show the prototype to a client or retail chain?

Yes, mock-ups and prototypes are often made precisely for that kind of approval. On request we produce them with full print.

Can you meet a fixed date?

Usually, yes. Our standard lead time is about 3 working days, and express printing in 24 hours is possible. As the manufacturer we plan production ourselves, so we can schedule your job around your deadline. Add the date to your brief and we will confirm it before work starts.
