When you order custom badges, you deserve to know exactly what you’re getting — not just what it might look like. That’s why we never begin full production until you’ve seen and approved a detailed proof. It’s how we make sure your badges turn out exactly as you imagined.
Why Proofs Matter
A proof is more than a formality. It’s your opportunity to check that every detail — from colour to scale — is spot-on before manufacturing begins. It’s the final checkpoint that protects your brand, your budget, and your peace of mind.
How the Proofing Process Works
For UK and European suppliers, you’ll receive a clear digital proof (usually a PDF visual) showing your design, colours, and dimensions.
For Far East production, we take things a step further — providing either high-resolution photographs or a physical pre-production sample of your badge.
Nothing is ever produced in bulk until you’ve given written approval. That approval triggers our production workflow, where every stage is logged and tracked within our ISO 9001 quality system.
The Human Touch
Behind each proof is a collaboration between our design, sales, and production teams. Our designers ensure the artwork is accurate, while our production managers verify materials, scale, and technical details. If needed, we’ll refine and re-proof until everything’s perfect.
Extra Quality Assurance
For larger or more complex orders, we often arrange independent third-party inspections before shipment. These checks confirm that the finished badges meet the approved proof in colour, size, and finish — ensuring what you see is truly what you get.
In Summary
Proofing isn’t just part of the process — it’s our promise. You’ll always see your custom badge before it’s made, and only when you’re completely happy do we move ahead.
