Frequently Asked Questions

DO YOU SUPPLY PRODUCTS WHICH AREN’T ON YOUR WEBSITE?

Yes, we do!  Almost any merchandise can be branded in some form, so even if you can’t see what you are looking for here that doesn’t mean it isn’t possible.  Many of our orders are bespoke products sourced to individual customer requirements so please do contact us to discuss how we can help.  The website and catalogue are just here to provide inspiration.

WILL I RECEIVE A PROOF FOR APPROVAL BEFORE MY ORDER GOES INTO PRODUCTION?

Yes.  Before your order proceeds to production you will receive a PDF proof for approval.  This will show the positioning of your logo onto the product and allows you to check layout, colours, accuracy of details such as any telephone numbers, websites etc.

WHAT IF I HAVE AN URGENT REQUIRED DELIVERY DATE?

Standard lead times vary but are usually around 2-3 weeks from artwork approval, although depending on stock and where the products are coming from this could be significantly longer.  Many (but not all) products can be put on an Express service.  This usually incurs an Express Order Surcharge. Please let us know as soon as possible what your requirements are and the deadline date and we will do all we can to help!  Obviously it is always best to allow as much time as possible as the more time you have the better your choice of options.

HOW SHOULD I PROVIDE ARTWORK?

Artwork is best provided in a vectored EPS or PDF (high resolution) format with Pantone colours.  If you don’t have these files or need help with artwork please ask.  We can get your logo recreated as print-ready artwork at cost.

I'M NOT SURE HOW I WANT THE ARTWORK TO APPEAR ON THE PRODUCT. CAN YOU HELP WITH LAYOUTS?

Yes. We can advise you on options and send you visuals showing different layout possibilities. Just ask!

IS IT POSSIBLE TO SEE A PLAIN SAMPLE OF THE PRODUCT BEFORE PLACING AN ORDER?

Yes, we can usually supply unbranded samples, subject to stock availability.  There may be a charge for these, depending on the product.  Please ask if you would like to order a sample.

CAN I ORDER A ONE OFF PERSONALISED SAMPLE WITH MY DESIGN ON?

It is possible to order a pre-production sample of some products, however there is a cost involved for this service. The price for this will vary depending on the branding method and product. We are very happy to discuss this with you, if required.

DO QUOTES INCLUDE VAT?

No, prices are quoted excluding.  VAT is added at the relevant rate on the date of invoice.

WHAT IS ORIGINATION?

Origination is the process of making printing plates/ screens/ pads/ embroidery discs / blocks / dies, and setting up the machines to brand your chosen products.  There is usually one origination charge per colour / per print.  For clothing, if a flashcure is required (where a base print is applied first to stop a light print colour seeping into a dark coloured garment) there will be two originations per print colour.  Origination charges vary depending on the product and branding method being used.

WHAT IS THE CARRIAGE CHARGE?

This is delivery of your order to one UK mainland address unless otherwise specified. On certain product specifications this will be included. If you require delivery to split addresses or to an international destination please ask and we will advise the costs.

WHAT ARE YOUR MINIMUM ORDER QUANTITIES?

The minimum order quantity (MOQ) varies significantly between products.  Some items have no MOQ, some items may have MOQs of 50/100/250.  The website does give MOQs but if you are looking for a smaller quantity just ask us – we may be able to help, or offer an alternative with a lower MOQ.

WHAT ARE YOUR PAYMENT TERMS?

If you have an account with us our payment terms are 30 days from date of invoice.  On all first orders, we ask for payment by Pro-Forma invoice.

WHERE CAN I FIND YOUR BANK DETAILS TO MAKE PAYMENT?

Zolitayre Ltd bank details can be found at the bottom of each invoice.

DO YOU ACCEPT PAYMENT BY CREDIT CARD?

Yes, Zolitayre Ltd accepts most major corporate credit cards.  A small surcharge applies.  Please ask for details.
