Existing reference
Useful for reviewing scale, material direction, mechanism or general workmanship. It does not approve a new logo, dimension or packed configuration.
Samples
Use the right sample for the decision.
An existing item can confirm a general direction. A custom approval sample is needed when exact material, dimensions, branding or packaging matter.
Appearance sample
Useful for colour, finish, engraving and visual layout. Its structure may not yet represent final production.
Functional sample
Useful for fit, stability, opening, insert and packed-product review. Decoration may still be simplified.
Approval sample
The final reference for documented material, form, decoration and packaging before production release.
Sample availability, charge and transport are confirmed case by case. A sample is not treated as approved until review comments are recorded.
