Computer software and virtual technology has come on leaps and bounds in the last decade, helping designers to convert complex architectural drawings into buildable realities. However, nothing instils confidence more than being able to physically see your drawings materialised in person. Bringing designs to life in the early stages of the project allows concepts to be assessed which reduces the scope for error further down the line.
This is where Maple’s specialised sampling service can help. Our dedicated team offer everything from RAL colour swatches to full-size mock-ups of façade systems. It’s our method of providing our clients with confidence by giving them a clear understanding of our products. It also enables clearer collaboration between different stakeholders involved in the project. Our HQ is equipped to produce samples and mock-ups for all customer needs, ready for all required parties to visit us in Stockport for approval.
Depending on the nature of the colour, you can expect our aluminium swatches to arrive within a week. Product samples take a bit longer and can be expected to take a couple of weeks whereas full mock-ups may require lead times to factor in purchasing, fabrication and assembly.
"We take sampling and mock-ups seriously at Maple, so much so there is a dedicated team who are in constant dialogue with the sales and pre-construction team to ensure architects, contractors or the client receive their samples on time and to specification."
Jake Dunn, Head of Sampling at Maple Façades.
