Custom Fabric Swatch Cards

Swatch Cards are an effective way to showcase your products color or texture range.

Custom fabric swatch cards help material-driven brands present their products consistently throughout the sales process, with physical color and texture samples alongside key product information. Acme Sample manufactures fabric sample cards and textile swatch cards for brands in the furniture, wallcovering, apparel, and related interior-product industries.

Based in High Point, North Carolina, we provide custom sampling, made in the USA, for companies throughout the Southeast and across the country.

Custom Swatch Cards Built Around Your Collection

Acme Sample produces custom swatch cards around the material being presented and the way customers will use the samples. Options include:

Single- through four-panel and multi-page presentations
Mixed swatch sizes, including larger feeler swatches that customers can lift and handle to feel the fabric
Branded ring-binder programs for organized sample presentations

Printed layouts can keep product identification and branding with the physical material throughout the sales process.

For other material-presentation formats, explore our custom samples.

Finished samples may be bulk boxed or collated and drop shipped directly to your customer list, or save time and freight costs by having Acme Sample manage the inventory and fulfill your sample orders daily.

Custom Layout, Edge and Print Options

Once the card format is selected, Acme Sample can refine the presentation with edge treatments and branded print options:

Edge finishes: Choose pinked or straight-cut edges based on the material and presentation.
Branded layouts: Incorporate product information, graphics, and other printed elements into the card design.
Print finishes: Available options include gloss, matte, UV coating, and soft-touch film.

Pinking creates a zig-zag edge that helps resist fraying. Straight cutting can be used for materials that do not fray or when another edge treatment is appropriate.

From Material to Finished Fabric Sample Cards

Every project begins with the presentation itself. We work with you to establish the card format, panel configuration, swatch placement, and printed layout.

Material is then prepared for the selected design. Our documented processes include slabbing and cut-to-size preparation. Master or control samples can also be used as production references to help ensure the material is represented as expected.

Prepared material is assembled into the selected format, and finished material sample cards can then be collated or prepared for distribution. As a fabric sample manufacturer with on-site commercial printing capabilities, Acme Sample can support both the physical sample and its branded printed presentation.
