How should customers of printing products set the delivery date

Mar. 29, 2023

RХ packaging will share with you: Now customers in various industries like to set the delivery date very fast. Maybe they may delay half a month and a month for their own design, engineering, and proofing, but they will rush for 3-4 days when they arrive at the printing factory. Urgently rushing to rush the goods, but they only urge the subsequent suppliers according to their own delivery date according to the quantity. Sometimes the delivery date of the packing box that should have been 13 days is urged to 7 days, which leads to many procedures in the back. There are so many delivery times, I hope you can understand more. First of all, if you are in the printing industry, you must have a thorough understanding of your own products, and you must also have a clear understanding of the requirements of the products made by customers. Many customers will doubt the delivery time when they find manufacturers to make printed materials. Then I will simply check the delivery time of various printed materials. To explain:

PACKAGING BOXES

Picture albums and periodicals: The delivery time for picture albums and periodicals is generally about 4 days. If the customer provides good documents, our production delivery time is 4 days. Another solution is that the customer only provides pictures and texts. We design and print the production. The general delivery period is about 1 week. Of course, we will need customer review after the design is completed. The time during the customer review period is also included, design + customer confirmation draft + proofing The time is about 4 days, and the printing production is 4 days, only (when the number of pages does not exceed 100P and the total number does not exceed 100,000 copies).


Various color boxes and handbags: the delivery time of these two products is generally about 5 days, and the most time-consuming is spent on manual work. Color boxes need to be mounted + beer + glued. Handbags need beer + sticky + rope, a few seemingly simple steps, but handwork is a very delicate work, of course it doesn't matter if it takes a little time, because the product must be perfect. (Generally, customers who make such products will provide good design documents. During this period, the delivery time is limited to less than 100,000 goods)


Gift box and hardcover book: These two types of products take the longest time to produce, usually the cycle time is 15 days, because the craftsmanship and production procedures of these two products are relatively complicated, and these two products have Unusual crafts take the longest time to make by hand. Handwork takes up to 13 days. It takes effort to make these two products. (This delivery time is limited to the volume of products below 50,000)


Some simple color pages, self-adhesives, single-black instructions, posters, etc. These products are the simplest and fastest delivery products for printed products. These products usually take 3 days. Customers are very satisfied when the materials are complete. If you are in a hurry, 2 days are also acceptable, (in addition, this delivery period is limited to the volume of less than 200,000).


Printing products are already a very transparent production process in the current market. I believe that customers will have a better understanding of printed products and their delivery dates after reading my explanation.
