Production Information
Cancellations or changes
After an order is received, cancellation charges apply at cost of labor, art time, and materials. All cancellations or changes must be made in writing.
Fabric / Material
Due to the nature of material, Vitronic cannot guarantee color match from one dye lot to another. Variances in color, shade, texture, size, and construction of finished goods may occasionally occur. We reserve the right to change, correct, or improve products without notice. Fabric swatches are available at no charge and should be used as a guide only since dye lots vary. No adjustments or claims will be processed regarding these variances.
Laundering
Vitronic Promotional Group recommends delaying laundering towels for at least 10 days after receipt of shipment.
Product Size
All product dimensions are approximate and may vary up to 1/2" to 5/8". No adjustments or claims will be processed regarding slight size variances.
