The Customisation Process
Collaboration
The design team will have an in-depth discussion with you about your goals and vision as to how Jonite panels can fit into your overall design plans. During this time, Jonite will also ensure that there is both material feasibility and cost efficiency before moving forward.
Conceptualisation
Upon receiving details in terms of the design or application effect you’d like to achieve, the design team will work to conceptualise the ideas. Depending on the time you have set aside for customisation, the team may suggest modifications on Jonite's current existing line of products, or create a brand new design.
Design & testing
Jonite designers will create designs and run stress tests if necessary. During this stage, renderings will be made so that you would be able to visualise the concept fully. Upon receiving your feedback, adjustments can be made to make sure that the designs perfectly encapsulate your vision.
Approval
Once all of the requirements are satisfied, Jonite will seek final sign off before commencing production. At this point in time, Jonite can fully support with any shop drawings required to make sure that all details are captured for the successful completion of your project.
