Certain minimum quantities and other requirements may apply depending on specific needs. CUSTOM COLOR MATCHING POLICY Plastiglas de Mexico will initially search in its color bank for identical or very close matches for customer approval to avoid development costs. If a satisfactory existing color is unavailable we will reproduce the particular color. The color development process requires approximately 3 to 4 weeks lead-time depending on our backlog. To initiate the color development process the minimum volume required is 2500 pounds one full pallet. For subsequent orders of the same item the same color in the identical size and thickness will require minimum batch volume. An extra cost to develop colors for potential orders will proceed in case Plastiglas de Mexico does not receive the order. If a special project calls for a minimum number of sheets an overrun is possible. Please refer to your current Custom Colors Price List Cancellation Policy An approved matched custom color order cancellation is subject to a 100 cancellation charge. Custom Color match fee is 150.00 USD per color. 7 COLORS STANDARD COLORS CHEMCAST For standard colors please consider the following categories and their minimums to order Standard colors - The minimum quantity per order must be of 25 sheets per clear color size thickness from 0.060 to 0.236.
