Why use sample books

What makes a good sample book effective?

A well-designed sample book allows clients to touch and evaluate materials before making a purchasing decision. It demonstrates the full range of available options — colour, texture, weight and finish — in a way that a digital catalogue cannot replicate.

A good sample folder helps clients note the difference between similar variants, see true colour representation in different lighting conditions, and make a more informed, confident purchasing decision — which directly supports sales conversion.

As experienced sample book manufacturers, MILO Group designs each sample tool to work specifically for the product it presents — from lightweight fabric swatches to heavy ceramic tiles.
Construction types

Three main construction types

  • Sample binders — solid cardboard covers with foam panels protecting and displaying samples in a clear, organised layout
  • Sample boxes & sample suitcases — rigid structure with lid, foam stabilisers and optional handle, designed for heavy or fragile samples
  • Sample fan decks & sample charts — rigid spine with press studs or bolts where individual sample cards or swatches are mounted and fanned out
Foam inserts Fan decks Sample binders Sample boxes FSC® PEFC
