| Q. | How many pages can I fit in my Presentation Book? |
| Theoretically, you could extend the capacity of your screwpost Presentation Book indefinitely. But in the real world, no matter how good your work is, nobody wants to see that much of it at any given time. We recommend that you include no more than 25 or 30 prints, max, in a presentation book. Most Art Directors will be happy with 15 to 20 examples of your work. For presentations, go thin. If you're archiving, use a box instead of a book. |
| Q. | Are your products eco-friendly? |
See our Environmental Policies page for more info on this topic, but in short, all of our products are at minimum recyclable and many are made of renewable and/or recyclable materials. All of the aluminum we use, for example, has post-consumer and post-industrial content, and can be 100% recycled. The acrylics we use are totally recyclable as are most of the packaging we use. For more detailed information about the environmental attributes of any specific product we make, give us a jingle. |
| Q. | What is the best way to keep my Pina Zangaro product looking good? |
In general, your portfolio's worst enemies are sunlight, heat, humidity, dust and abrasion. Keeping your book away from those five foes will make it last forever. Use one of our Jackets, or come up with your own defenses. |
| Q. | Where do you make this stuff anyway? |
| We make all of our products in the USA. What is not manufactured in our San Francisco facility is made for us by our manufacturing partners across the US. We do this because quality, speed and reliability are important to us, as is minimizing the product miles on our goods. Offshore manufacturing has never been able to provide us with all of those qualities. |
| Q. | Do you offer any sort of guarantee for your products? |
Yep. Basically everything is guaranteed to last as long as you do, provided that you take care of it. If it fails, give us a ring and we'll replace it for you. See more about this in our returns policy here. |
| Q. | I see that you refer to "format" and "dimensions" on the site. What's the difference? |
| By "format" we mean the document size and orientation, while "dimensions" refer to the actual size of the product. |
| Q. | Where can I buy old Pina Zangaro products if I don't see them on your site? |
| It is possible that some of our discontinued products are available through our dealers. Call us and we'll point you in the right direction. |
| Q. | Are Pina Zangaro products archival? |
| All of the sheet protectors, hinge strips, and inkjet paper we make are acid free, pH neutral and safe for long-term artwork storage. Our Camden and Olema boxes and books are anodized and, as such, are chemically stable and pH neutral. Some of our Presentation Book covers, however, are not considered archival. We recommend that if you are planning to archive your work for the long term, you place it in a pH neutral sheet protector or sleeve. |
