Production Timelines
Turnaround
24-hour standard production on most jobs. Turnaround varies by material, finishing, and volume. Schedules confirmed at order entry.
Standard Production
24 Hours
Most orders, standard materials
Standard production applies to orders received with production-ready files before the daily cutoff. Clock starts when files pass preflight and payment is confirmed.
- •Vinyl and banner output
- •Standard rigid substrates
- •Basic finishing (trim, grommet, hem)
Rush & Priority
Case-by-Case
Subject to capacity and scope
Expedited production is available when capacity allows. Rush fees apply. Same-day production is not guaranteed and requires direct coordination with production scheduling.
- •Contact before submitting rush orders
- •Files must be 100% production-ready
- •Rush availability confirmed at time of inquiry
Extended Production
Some jobs require extended timelines due to complexity, material requirements, or finishing specifications. These include:
- •Multi-layer or registered printing
- •CNC routing with complex toolpaths
- •Specialty laminates and coatings
- •Non-stock substrates requiring sourcing
- •High-volume production runs
- •Assembly and kitting requirements
What Affects Turnaround
Substrate Availability
Standard materials are stocked for immediate production. Specialty substrates may require sourcing time.
Finishing Requirements
Lamination, mounting, grommeting, hemming, and CNC cutting add processing time to base production.
Order Volume
Large-format runs and high-quantity orders require extended production windows for quality assurance.
File Readiness
Production begins when files pass preflight. Revision cycles delay queue entry.
Current Queue Depth
Seasonal demand and existing commitments affect available capacity. Schedules confirmed at order entry.
Shipping Method
Delivery timelines are separate from production timelines. Carrier availability affects final receipt.
Schedule Confirmation
Production schedules are confirmed at order entry based on current capacity, material availability, and job specifications. For time-sensitive projects, contact production scheduling before file submission.
Quoted timelines reflect production time only. Shipping and delivery are calculated separately based on destination and carrier selection.
