Proofing is the first step of production

Pins24 Proofing
Digital proofing speeds up production

Every lapel pin order goes through electronic proofing as the first step of the production process. Digital proofing ensures the final product’s correct implementation, colors, and proportions.

All proofing is handled in-house to get the process started quickly and to allow direct communication with the proof designer if changes are needed. Once the proof is approved, production can begin without delay.

Some suppliers outsource proofing overseas, which often slows down the process.

Any requested changes must be sent back and forth, adding unnecessary time before production can start.

When you order pins from us, experienced graphic professionals prepare your proof and translate your ideas into a production-ready design. The proof designer also ensures that all technical details are correctly passed on so the finished lapel pin matches the approved proof.

Digitally proofed in-house

All lapel pin orders are proofed through our dedicated digital proofing system. Inside the platform, you can review your proofs, approve them for production, or reject them with clear change requests. You can also follow the progress of your order from proof approval through production.

If a physical sample or photographed prototype is required, these options are also handled through the same proofing system, keeping everything in one place.

Our digital proofing service is developed and maintained in-house and is available exclusively to our customers.

This allows faster communication, fewer errors, and a smoother transition from design to production.
