MINIMAL SHEET USAGE
Our standard sheet size is 900 x 600mm, if your files do not utilise the full sheet, you will only be charged the fraction of the material in which you use.
PACKAGING + FILE ADJUSTMENT
All jobs are taped into the sheets after completion. We will endeavor to ensure you receive your project just as you sent it, however this may not always be possible with smaller pieces.
Certain materials such as boxboard, screenboard and white card have a tendency to peel after tape is removed (low tack tape is used as per standard to minimise the chance of this).
Please let us know if you do not wish us to tape your project to the sheets they are cut out of.
To avoid the unnecessary wastage of materials, files may be optimised (pieces moved/ shifted). We will endeavour to keep groups of materials together for ease of locating.
If it is adamant your pieces remain in locations advised, please let us know, full material costs apply for such projects.
