Has your customer selected TPG colours and then insists on seeing a fabric example?

The cotton swatches are available in the same colours as in the TPG books and have the same colour names and numbers; it is just the suffix which changes from TPG to TCX. When you receive the cotton swatch the colour may look slightly different to the TPG version due to the different levels of ink on the paper compared to the dye on the cotton as well as metamerism.

Tip: if you cannot find the colour you need: check the number you have been given. Perhaps it is from one of the other substrates, possibly the digits have been switched around, or one digit is missing.

To order Pantone swatches, first select the fabric type then click on the colour wheel to select the required colour, you can search the palette or type the number in the search box. Then select the size of Pantone swatch card you need from the dropdown; the size options are explained in the blue box.
