Overview of Texture Tone®
Texture Tone® is a quick decoration process (5-7 business days) that can create a high-quality imprint w/ Texture and Special Effects.

In short, the combination of high quality and quick production time makes this decoration process ideal for projects that have a close in-hands date and require high quality.
Benefits of Texture Tone®
High-Quality Decoration
Texture Tone® is a high-quality imprint that 3D Prints Textures with Special Effects. It can make your customers’ last-minute jobs look like fantastic, fully custom pieces that took months to produce.
Fast Production
It is a quick production time (5 – 7 business days) and is produced in the USA (in North Carolina and California). That means it’s a short ship to most people in the United States.
Custom or Stock Shapes

Satisfy Artwork Requirements
The Texture Tone® decoration is extremely adept at fulfilling artwork requirements. It can produce Gradients, Full Color, and Fine Details.

Ideal Use Cases
1: Last Minute – High-Quality Jobs
The overarching benefits of Texture Tone® are Speed, Quality and Flexibility. As such, it is primarily used for high-quality, last-minute jobs. The typical scenario is when your client asks for something high quality, but needs it in a week or two (that never happens, right ;).

2: When Art or Production Flexibility Required
You might also use Texture Tone® if your client needs something more than traditional custom pieces allow.
Variable Data For example, say they want variable data for years of service on a lapel pin; or names for name badges. This can get complicated (or expensive) to do with a traditional custom piece, but is easy with Texture Tone®. |
Mixing Design Styles Or, let’s say your client has a full-color image that they want to mix with colorfill design; or gradients that need to appear. While these things are possible overseas, they can be more expensive and harder to pull off. But with Texture Tone®, this can be easily accomplished. |
Cost
Since Texture Tone® is a quality decoration with a fast turnaround, it’s typically a premium price point. However, in certain circumstances, Texture Tone® can be less expensive than fully custom alternatives.
This typically occurs when the product is physically big or heavy (think medallion or coin). In those cases, it can be more cost-effective to go with Texture Tone® for your clients than a traditional custom piece.
