Trademarks
You must own the intellectual property rights to the artwork or copy submitted for imprint or by way of assignment are authorized to submit the art or copy. By submitting artwork or copy, you and your client agree that you are in compliance with all laws related to trademark, copyright, and all other intellectual property rights in the artwork or copy submitted. Odyssey disclaims all liability for non-compliance with these laws.

Proofs (Art Approvals)
All orders will be sent a complimentary fax proof that must be signed off before going to production. An e-mailed proof can also be made available for $12.50 (V). This is exactly how your imprint (size, placement and copy) will appear on the item you are purchasing. This is your last opportunity to make any changes to your artwork before your order goes to production. Pay particular attention to spelling, phone numbers, size and positioning of your layout. Written approval must be received at our factory within 24 hours before production will begin. Any delay in returning this art approval may result in adjustment to the shipping date. Changes to your art proof not due to our error will incur an $18.75 (V) art change charge.

Size and Position of Artwork
Your order must clearly state if your artwork is one side, two sides or wraparound. Also state if the art is to exact size or should be reduced or enlarged. If instructions are not clearly stated, we will use our best judgment. Imprints using glass and ceramic enamels must be 2cm from the lip of the mug or glass due to FDA guidelines. Please take this into consideration if your art is to be vertically centered as we may be required to reduce its size. If specifications are not made on sizing of artwork, no claim will be honored for incorrect sizing. Certain glassware products have a “seam” opposite the handle. Due to this “seam” we do not recommend a wraparound imprint. Artwork on some items in this catalog will be altered in appearance due to the taper, shape or radius of the item. Some examples of this are martini glasses and brandy snifters.
Back to top

Wrap-Around or Opposite Side Imprint
There is no additional charge for one color designs on most items in our catalog when direct screen imprinting the same color on the opposite side. Metallic imprints, decal printing and some irregular shapes require a special quote from the factory for opposite side imprinting.
Back to top

Imprint Colors
Please specify PMS number for imprint color(s) on the order. While we offer many standard imprint colors, some colors, such as Rhodamine Red, Rubine Red, hot pink and bright purple, cannot be achieved with the ceramic color palette available for high firing on glass and ceramics. If you choose one of these colors, we will notify you for an alternative color choice. An exact color match cannot be guaranteed due to the nature of the firing process. Variations can also occur due to substrate color, opacity, and other factors. Because of the nature of ceramic enamels we cannot guarantee exact matches from speculative / pre-production sample to the production run. All ceramic colors are dishwasher safe. Satin Etch is a popular imprint color often used on glassware. This is a screen printed application. Odyssey does not employ a deep etch process.

Multi-Color Design Registration
When multiple colors are used in a design, a variance of +/- 1/16” may occur and must be considered acceptable. If tighter registration is required, it can be achieved by the use of a decal, but will require a special quotation and additional lead time. Decals are applied by hand and variation of position will occur. Exact straightness and positioning cannot be guaranteed. Slight variations should be considered acceptable.
Back to top

Decals (One hour minimum art time @ $43.75)
If a multicolor design with tight registration requires a decal to achieve the desired result, there will be an upcharge to our normal pricing and will require additional lead time in production. The minimum order for decals are 144 pieces with+/- 10%.
Production is about 4–6 weeks. In addition to the price of an item in one color, add the following charges to the quantity specified accordingly:

*Special quotes are necessary for higher quantity. Re-order quantities less than 1008 pieces will incur set-up charges at $18.75 (V) per color. Proof And Preparation Charge: $35 (V) per color in addition to screen charge of $43.75 (V) per color plus any necessary art charges. Decal proof and decal preproduction sample charges will not be credited to any production charges.

Decal * Four-color Process
Minimum orders are 500 pieces. A Pre-production approval must accompany all decal orders before final production begins.
Special pricing must be obtained on 4-color process. Complicated artwork requiring extensive amount of artist’s time will incur
a charge of $43.75(G) per hour. We reserve the right to determine what is complicated artwork versus acceptable art.
Jobs will be quoted on an individual basis. Set-up can run from $300–500. Delivery time 4-6 weeks. Due to the nature of
production processes, slight variations and small imperfections in ceramic ware and glassware are not considered flaws.
Variation in raw and firing temperatures may result in variations in size, shape, glaze color, etc. These conditions are within acceptable industry standards.
Back to top

Personalization
Minimum quantity for personalization is 24 pieces with an order of 36 pieces. A complete typed alphabetical list of names must be submitted. To determine pricing, add $2.50 (V) per personalization to our regular catalog pricing. Personalization is not available at promotional pricing. Add $3.50 (V) for metallic personalizations. Lead time is 3 weeks for fulfillment. Personalization color may not always match the imprint color.

Metallic Gold, Platinum or Copper Imprints
For metallic gold, platinum or copper imprint add $0.50 (V) per piece per side, up to 3 square inches of coverage. This same pricing applies to microwave safe metallic gold and copper imprints. This is in addition to the regular imprint color charge. If the imprint exceeds 3 square inches of coverage, add $0.15 (V) per piece per square inch. Metallic imprints are not ceramic enamel imprints and may wear off with use. If you require lasting permanence, we do not recommend the use of these precious metal imprints. We reserve the right to change metallic imprint prices at any time according to current market conditions. Metallic imprints are not dishwasher safe.
Back to top

Microwave Safe Metallic Imprints
Microwave safe gold and copper metallic imprints are available upon request. If you desire this process, “microwave safe” must appear on your order, or we will use our regular metallic imprint. Pricing for microwave safe metallics is the same as standard metallics. Microwave safe metallic imprints can vary slightly from the appearance and shine of standard metallics. Microwave safe metallic imprints are not ceramic enamel imprints and may wear off with use. If you require lasting permanence, we do not recommend the use of these precious metals. We reserve the right to change metallic imprint prices at any time according to current market conditions. Microwave safe metallic imprints are not dishwasher safe.

Gold, Platinum or Copper Halo, Rimband or Cap Rimband 3/16” - add $.60 (G) per piece
Halo - add $.40 (G) per piece
Cap 3/16” inside and out - add $1.00 (G) per piece.

Inserts
Inserts can be inserted at a $0.13 (V) charge providing they require no bending or folding and will survive the heat of the product coming directly out of the lehr. Inserts must be easily dropped into the item or packaging without extra labor. Production will not begin until the inserts are received at the factory.
Back to top

Less Than Minimum Charge
Items are sold in full case quantities only. There will be a charge of $18.75(V) per order, per item for breaking case quantities. Odyssey is not responsible for any breakage during shipping on orders that are not full case quantity.

For any order less than 36 pieces, add $30.00(V) per color to each set-up charge plus screen charge.  Absolute minimum production run is 24 pieces.
Back to top

Spec/Pre-Production Samples
Speculative/pre-production samples are available at $35.00 (V) per color plus normal artwork and screen charges. If an order of 288 pieces or more results with no alterations to the original request, the art and screen charges will remain. Sample charges will be credited toward the order with the exception of decal proof and pre-production samples. Any revisions or changes to the original instructions for any speculative samples will incur additional art, screen, and sampling charges. These charges are nonrefundable. Ship dates will be adjusted based on the date of sample approval. Slight variance should be accepted between sample proof and actual production due to the nature of different batching, ink, processing, firing, and other conditions. Orders calling for speculative/pre-production sample prior to production are not considered final until the sample is approved. This sampling process can effect inventory commitments for that order.

MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION

About Our Products
Due to the nature of production processes, slight variations and small imperfections in ceramics and glassware are not considered flaws. Items can not be guaranteed 100% consistent and no two items are guaranteed identical. Variation in raw materials, glazes, production equipment and firing temperatures may result in variations in size, shape, glaze color, etc. These conditions are within acceptable industry standards. All product sizes are approximate and subject to change without notice. Representative samples are available for evaluation at no charge.

Glass and ceramic items are imprinted by direct screen printing or ceramic decal and fired at a temperature of approximately 1100° F and 1450° F, fusing the imprint to the item. All ceramic imprints, except metallic gold, platinum and copper and imitation gold, platinum and copper are dishwasher safe. Stainless Steel, Acrylic, and Polycarbonate items are printed with organic enamels and are not considered dishwasher safe.

Catalog Imprints
Products and logos shown in this catalog appear only to illustrate the ability to include messages and art on them. They are not intended to suggest that the imprints were designed by this company or that products with specific imprints are readily available to any purchaser without permission of the owners of the trademarks or copyrighted art. Photographs in this catalog may not depict the true item color. If color is essential, a random sample should be ordered.

Proposition 65
Odyssey decorates products using materials that comply with current U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) guidelines for heavy metal release standards. California does not recognize the Federal standards, choosing instead to enforce its own standards as defined in The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, (often referred to as “Proposition 65”). This legislation applies only to California and does not ban any product; it simply requires either compliance with the law or the use of individual product warning labels. Any item distributed in the State of California may require a warning label under this California law. Odyssey enforces Company policies and procedures that comply in all cases with this law. There are numerous approaches to confidently achieving compliance. First, Odyssey has alternative enamels that comply with Proposition 65. Products decorated with these alternative enamels do not require warning labels. Odyssey also offers the following solutions to help solve your compliance needs when traditional enamels are specified.

1. We offer multiple drop ship locations and label only the portion of your order going to California.
2. We offer to provide you with warning labels for those orders you choose to ship to or distribute in California.
   
3. We offer the extra protection of labeling your product even if it ships to a state other than California.

It is the distributor’s responsibility to notify Odyssey in advance of shipments planned for immediate or eventual shipment to California. By way of this notification, the distributor and the end customer holds Odyssey harmless from all liability for alleged Proposition 65 violations including all costs associated with defending any legal claims due to Proposition 65 violations.
Note: Lead Free colors lack the gloss and durability of standard base colors and if used for repeat orders the colors will vary slightly. Organic based colors have less resistance to scratches and have less dishwasher durability.
