Kitting and assembly in Italy?
Yes — our Milano hub kits welcome packs, holiday gifts, event boxes. Each kit hand-finished with tissue wrap, ribbon, sticker seal and personal notecard. Photo of every kit before sealing for QC trace.
Personalised notecards?
Yes — variable data printing for recipient name, hire date, event reference. Handwritten cards available with calligrapher partners (Milano-based) for VIP recipient lists under 200.
Lead time after artwork sign-off?
Digital print 7–10 working days; offset litho 12–14 working days; rigid gift boxes with foil/emboss 18–21 working days. Add 2–3 days for kitting if applicable.
How is CONAI charged?
CONAI environmental contribution (paper, plastic, wood) appears as a separate line on the SdI invoice with breakdown per category. Standard CONAI rates apply — declared on Modello 6.10 for your records.
