Artwork Requirements

There is a lot to think about when printing on Seed Paper. We always recommend you avoid block colours and stick to low ink designs. We generally advise that the design does not exceed 30% ink coverage. Whilst it is possible to print block colours, they will not only hide the natural appearance of seed paper but the ink also has a negative affect on the seeds, soil and germination rate plus the quality of the finish is not the best.

For best results we advise to keep your design simple, avoid large block colours by keeping backgrounds plain and utilising white space to show off the natural appearance of the paper. Let the paper do most of the talking. If we do notice any errors or experience any issues with the design, we will of course get in touch, however this is not a guarantee and it will slow down the production time of your order.

If you would like this to be guaranteed, we do offer artwork verification service, printed proof and / or physical sample.

Tolerance

Orders can arrive 5% above or below the quantity ordered, orders may have up to 5mm tolerance of movement on the sheet / 5mm movement on cutting / trimming / stitching and any other finishing not listed here.

Liability

If defects in the goods cause death injury or damage to personal property, our liability for any loss or damage suffered by you in respect of the goods shall be limited to the contract value of the goods. We are not liable for any financial loss incurred by you, including but not limited to expenses incurred by you, interest payments & loss of earnings, or similar gains you would have received on monies paid to us in lieu of any unfulfilled order. Nothing in these terms and conditions shall affect the rights of a consumer.

Payment Terms & Deposits

Irrespective of the agreed payment conditions, customers can be obliged to provide security for the payment of the amounts to be paid to the supplier pursuant to the contract, on the supplier’s first demand.

If you do opt to have work re-done by a third party without reference to us you automatically revoke your right to any remedy from us. All defective work must be returned to us before replacement if the subject work is not available we will assume that it has been accepted and no replacement will be provided. Refunds will take between 3 to 5 working days to complete once UK Seed Paper has agreed to a refund. This cannot be completed any faster.
