A logo approved on a white monitor background can look quite different when printed on open mesh. For branded fence windscreen, the artwork and fabric should be approved together. Neither a digital proof alone nor an unprinted swatch answers every production question.
Define the Fabric Before the Artwork
EONE accepts customer drawings and custom requests for finished sizes, material construction, colors, graphics, hems and grommet layouts. Begin with the screen's intended use, desired visual blockage, fabric weight and supporting fence. The current range includes knitted HDPE examples and multiple listed weight and blockage combinations for review.
Changing the fabric or color after artwork approval can change the printed appearance. Record the approved substrate, print process and exposure requirements in the same specification. Material, finish, MOQ, setup or tooling, testing and packing terms are agreed per project. Not every proposed construction or graphic treatment can be assumed feasible.
Make the Layout Installation-Aware
Send a section drawing with finished dimensions, seam locations, reinforced edges, grommets and the intended viewing face. Mark where gates break the graphic and where corners change direction. A word or logo split by a gate can become unreadable when that gate is open.
- Provide authorized vector artwork where available and control the font files or outlined text.
- Identify brand colors, approved text and the relative priority of each message.
- Keep critical content clear of hems, seams, holes and hardware.
- Show the sequence of adjacent panels and any artwork that repeats.
Ball Fabrics' primary artwork guidance reinforces the value of usable source files and font control. Ask EONE to confirm the final prepress requirements for the chosen material rather than relying on a file extension alone. Confirm authorization for all supplied logos and images before production.
Approve Both Proof and Physical Sample
The digital proof should show artwork revision, finished size, orientation and placement. Check spelling and layout at a meaningful viewing scale. Then agree a printed sample that represents the chosen fabric and production method. Review color, fine-detail legibility, reverse-side appearance where relevant, and the boundary between printed areas and edge construction.
Keep approval stages distinct. A fabric sample can be accepted while the artwork is still open, and an artwork proof can be accepted while the grommet drawing still needs correction. Bulk release should name the final approved references, not infer approval from a general positive email.
Private-Label Packaging and Coordinated Branding
EONE can review OEM/private-label supply, branded packaging and coordinated branding across compatible screens and project signs. Define product labels, section IDs, carton marks, quantities and any barcode information. Packaging claims must reflect evidence for the ordered screen rather than general claims copied from another product family.
For multi-location buyers, separate a brand master from project-specific graphics. Use controlled fields for location names or project identifiers, and verify each version's quantity before combining them into a shipment. Agree replacement-panel artwork retention and reorder specifications so a later piece can be reviewed against the same reference.
Release a Repeatable Order
Retain the approved sample, drawings, artwork, tolerances and packing plan as the reorder file. New quantities, colors or material substitutions need confirmation, and production timing is agreed for each release. Request a printed approval sample or submit the branding and screen schedule for manufacturability review.
