Shipping Material Samples

When preparing material samples for shipping, please follow these guidelines

  • Sample sizes should be 60 cm x 60 cm (24 in x 24 in). If the material has a larger pattern, the sample should be the full repeat size in both directions (vertical and horizontal) plus 25%.

  • For fabrics, you can alternatively send full-width rolls at 60 cm (0.7 yards) in length (or the repeat size plus 25%, if patterned).

    • In case of fabrics, you can also send full-width rolls at 60 cm (0.7 yards) length (or if they have a pattern, then the size of the repeat +25% length)

  • Never fold the samples to prevent wrinkles or creases. Please send them either:

    • Rolled, or

    • Laid flat in a 60 cm x 60 cm (24 in x 24 in) box. Ensure the box is fully packed to prevent the samples from moving during transit.

  • Clearly label each sample you send. We will use the names and article IDs you provide when digitizing the samples for the colormass Platform.

  • Please indicate on each sample:

    • The back side (ensure the front remains unlabelled, if possible)

    • The direction of the sample (top/bottom)

  • Use the shipping address provided below.

If shipping from outside the European Union, please include a customs declaration (i.e., a pro forma invoice—not an actual invoice) attached to the outside of the package, detailing:

  • Your company name and address

  • colormass’s company name and address (see below)

  • A description of the contents (e.g., "Material samples (textile, fabric, vinyl, etc.) for upholstery furniture")

  • The value of the package (ensure the declared value is more than 0 € but under 100 €).
