Production includes material preparation, printing or molding, finishing, inspection, and packaging. If the mold already exists from a previous order, production may be slightly faster.
Can you match Pantone colors?
Yes. For printing and woven labels, Szoneier supports Pantone color matching to ensure brand consistency. During sampling, thread color, ink color, or silicone color is checked against Pantone references to minimize variation across production batches.
Do you develop custom molds for PVC or metal tags?
Yes. Szoneier develops custom molds for PVC rubber patches, silicone tags, metal logo plates, and custom zipper pulls. Mold development usually takes 7–15 days, depending on complexity. Once the mold is created, it can be reused for future production orders to maintain logo consistency.
Can tags be attached directly during bag production?
Yes. Because Szoneier manufactures both bags and tags, tag placement can be integrated during bag assembly. This allows reinforcement stitching, correct positioning, and hardware color coordination. This reduces mismatch issues that can occur when tags are sourced separately.
How do you control quality for small components like tags?
Although tags are small, Szoneier follows a structured inspection process. Materials are checked before production, and finished tags are inspected for logo clarity, thickness accuracy, surface defects, and attachment strength. Every order undergoes 100% inspection before shipment.
What shipping methods do you support?
Shipping options include express courier, air freight, and sea freight. Trade terms supported include EXW, FOB, DAP, and DDP. Many e-commerce clients choose DDP for direct warehouse delivery.
What payment methods do you accept?
Szoneier accepts T/T bank transfer, PayPal, credit card, Alibaba Trade Assurance, Alipay, and Western Union. Typically, production begins after deposit payment, with balance paid before shipment.
