  • Shade family and depth: especially dark navy, black, fluorescent or high-visibility shades.

What to confirm before sampling

  • Fabric or yarn composition and blend ratio.
  • Dyeing or printing process and temperature profile.
  • Target shade, customer standard and required fastness levels.
  • Whether matching auxiliaries are needed for levelling, fixing, pre-treatment or finishing.
