Export Week
Export Week handles crating, artwork checks, customs paperwork and the practical snags that appear once the local pack-out is done.
How Export Week works in an actual production week
Export Week is a Wall Art Designs software page for work that must be planned around export-related schedules and handover points. Use it when the artwork process needs clearer structure before files, print prep and approvals move forward.
Use this route when the buyer has already settled the wall-art job. Begin with the surface, the install window, and the site restriction. Teams in Gqeberha and Pretoria share the same first step: photograph the wall or display area before work opens for the day.
Packed handover and file trail
You leave with an Export Week route, a working checklist, and an email trail that lists each Wall Art Designs SKU correctly. Mention Export Week when you write and we will hold a print slot before the container cut-off.
Do not miss the first wall photo during the site walk-through. You are going to need it for a final check before the order is packed for courier or fitting.
Export timing across SA sites
We plan around OR Tambo export weeks, Sunnyrock warehouse cut-offs, and showroom trading hours in second-tier malls. Coastal air affects how often samples, panels, and tools need cleaning. Inland dust means wipe-downs on print heads, cutters, and finished surfaces happen more often.
Keep urgent Coastal Pack issues separate from the standard weekly brief. A showroom hour is booked for a software demonstration, not a broad agency-style presentation. Wall Art Designs is operated by Astros Marketing (Pty) Ltd from our Johannesburg office.

Gauteng dispatch planning notes
Generic décor copy wastes time. If your Export Week brief needs a different process, say so at the start. Difficult access, heritage sites, hygiene-sensitive rooms, or off-grid power all change the order of artwork checks, printing, packing, and installation. A short email with clear limits is more useful than a long one full of adjectives.
How Export Week works in an actual production week
Export Week is for wall-art jobs that are already approved and now need the shipping side tied down properly. We use it to track artwork checks, crating details, customs paperwork, and the issues that only appear after local pack-out is finished.
Confirm the wall finish, access window, and packing method before artwork moves to print prep. Export Week usually starts where handover can fail, such as narrow lifts, security sign-in, or cartons that need different labelling for courier and fitting teams. In Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, and Cape Town, the brief changes quickly when site access, dust levels, or moisture exposure are written down properly.
Take the first site image before tools come out and before any sample is moved. That record helps match the final packed set to the correct wall, especially when several Wall Art Designs SKUs leave together. It also gives the team one visual reference when a crate, label, or panel count needs checking later.
Packed handover and file trail
Expect a route built around file status, packing checks, and named SKUs rather than loose messages across email threads. The working list covers the wall position, print format, finish notes, and handover points for courier or installers. Clear records matter more here because export-related work usually passes through more than one team before fitting.
Read Export Week alongside Substrates and the relevant Design notes entry before expanding the scope of the job. Check the wall, the approved artwork, and the packed pieces once more before dispatch leaves the building.

Export timing across SA sites
Planning often works around OR Tambo export weeks, Sunnyrock warehouse cut-offs, and retail access times in smaller Gauteng centres. Gqeberha and Pretoria teams may start on different sites, but both need the opening wall photo and the same SKU naming discipline. Keep reprints separate from the main export batch so counts and paperwork stay clear.
Coastal air changes how often samples, panels, and tools need cleaning before pack-out. Inland dust means extra wipe-downs on print heads, cutters, and finished surfaces before anything is wrapped. Load-shedding and mall trading hours can also shift fitting sequences, so the note must reflect the actual site window.

Export Week filing notes
Use Export Week for wall art jobs that need market-specific edits, format checks and destination-ready artwork.
Write this note while the wall condition, artwork version, and handover details are still easy to verify. Add it to the project brief when the buyer needs a clean record for approval, packing, and dispatch checks. That keeps the wall-art process readable from first photo to final crate count.
