The NDA comes first
We sign a non-disclosure agreement as standard before you share anything. Ask for it in your first message. Then send the files, as described in sending artwork.
What it covers
- Your designs and artwork.
- Colour references and lab dips.
- Specifications and constructions.
- Pricing and quantities.
Ownership and reuse
Your designs are never offered to other buyers and are not reused. Ownership of the design stays with you. Samples and strike-offs we make for you are yours as well.
The NDA is signed per the terms agreed between you and us. Contact us if your company needs its own NDA form reviewed.
If you sell under your own brand
For OEM and private label orders the rug carries your brand, not ours. On request we add your own label, barcode or QR sticker and packaging. The route from artwork to production is in CAD to strike-off, and sampling in the sampling process.
Request an NDA and start your brief
Send your design, size and estimated quantity. We reply within two business days, usually within one. Minimum order: 1 piece. Sampling cost is credited against your order. Payment: 50% advance, 50% before dispatch.
