flatbed ink jetSCREEN 1632
SECTION A
Our Screen 1632 Flat Bed Ink Jet Printer is at the leading edge in terms of both speed and quality.
It uses UV curable inks which means we can print on
un-absorbent surfaces with ease, extending the range
of substrates we can print on dramatically. Plus with its
rising heads it can print on substrates up to 48mm thick,
allowing us to offer printed products which really push the
boundaries.

Doors can be printed Single or Double Sided with any image or graphics, the only limit is your imagination. Printed Doors are a new addition to our range and we are certain that they will prove to be popular. We can supply doors in all standard sizes, either as basic internal doors or Fire rated doors.

Doors to challenge you,
to take you on a journey
and to inspire.
Standard Door Range
Internal Doors 35mm thick in two widths H 1981 x W 762 or 838 mm
Internal Fire Doors 44mm thick in two widths H 1981 x W 762 or 838 mm
We can also print on your own flat doors supplied to us. Please remove all door furniture (hinges, locks etc), and specify which side your door is to be printed.
Our single sided doors are plain finish on the reverse and jambs ready for painting.
We have taken the humble A-frame and supercharged its ‘draw’ potential. A-Frames With Attitude! (AWA) incorporate a bespoke attention grabbing area that can be cut to any shape. The extra Breakout section is fixed to the A frame base and folds with the frame for easy storage.
AWAOur weather durable fence panels are perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a one off design or multiple of the same. Each is printed with UV stable ink, so provided your construction will be completed within the next eighty years your hoarding will still look as good as new!
CORREX OUTDOOR PANELS
You can specify your panels at any size from 150mm square to 2400 x 1200mm in 4mm thick Correx.(We can also supply 6mm and 8mm Boards, please ask for details).
Please note: Any temporary structure should be properly designed to comply with relevant regulations.
We can supply AWAs in two sizes, one designed to accommodate A1 posters and the other A0 Posters. The top ‘breakout’ section can be any shape to fit within a rectangle of W594mm x H750mm (A1 version) and W841mm x H900mm (A0 version).
The breakout section consists of two panels fixed together so the print on each side can be different. The product works best if the cut shape on each side is the same and is vertically symmetrical.
PERSONALISED CUTOUTSWould a famous patron, character from history or legend add gravitas to your forthcoming event?
PRINTING ON GLASSFor a professional and durable effect nothing beats direct printing on to glass panels.
further information
PERSONALISED CUTOUTSWe offer an extensive range of Celebrity Cutouts ‘off the shelf’ as Lifesize, Minis or Masks. In addition we can produce all these items Personalised from High Resolution images supplied.
Our Cutouts are printed on strong, fair faced fluted board and the Lifesize and Mini versions fold for transit. They look really lifelike and are particularly photogenic. If a famous Celebrity or Character from History would add gravitas or hilarity to a forthcoming event then our Cutouts really are a great solution.
Please note: Photographic and Image rights should be addressed before commissioning a Personalised Cutout.
PRINTING ON GLASSUltra Violet ink curing on our Flat Bed press means we can print on non porous surfaces. One particularly interesting effect is printing onto glass. Glass Printing is clearly a challenge, not least because of the fragility of the material, every job must be evaluated and costed. We would be delighted to help you with your design and assist with the logistics of sourcing the material and delivering it ready for installation.
CARD ‘CANVAS’ PRINTSThese are printed on fair faced fluted board which, once printed, is scored and glued to make an exceptionally strong ‘box’ section which hangs on a wall just like a real canvas. Not only are they exceptionally strong, they keep their shape and do not stretch over time. As standard we offer two sizes, 850mm x 620mm and 1240mm x 850mm. We may be able to produce in other sizes if you require a number of prints.

POLICE STANDEESChoose from 4 different officers to suit your requirements
further information
POLICE STANDEESDeploying a policeman, even a card standee one, can make a huge difference. One study showed that stationing a constable at the entrance to a supermarket cut the rate of shoplifting significantly and produced a return on investment in days. Likewise having a traffic officer stationed ahead of notorious accident blackspots can serve to considerably reduce traffic speeds and, may save lives. All our policemen are available in either indoor cardboard or all weather Correx board versions. Where will you station yours?
METAL SIGNSOur Metal Signs are printed in Full Colour on durable and light Aluminium Dibond Sheets which are virtually impervious to the weather. They are designed for indoor and sheltered outdoor use. We can print any design or photo on your Metal Sign.
You can specify a Metal Sign in any size from 100mm x 100mm right up to 1850mm x 1400mm. All signs have precision cut edges and can be specified square cut or with round corners as required.
Finished signs can be bonded directly to a wall or brickwork, or they can be drilled and screwed. Alternatively we can supply a mounting system.
BESPOKE TILESWould you like an impressive mural spanning across ceramic tiles or would tiles make a great solution for durable signage? Our tiles are hard wearing and fade resistant so you can be certain that colours remain vivid. Printed Tiles open up a world of exciting possibilities and we are happy to produce anything from a single tile to a large montage.
As standard our tiles are 150mm or 200mm square, although we would be pleased to quote for a different tile size for a larger project.
BESPOKE TILESOpen up a world of exciting possibilities and we are happy to produce anything from a single tile to a large montage!

METAL SIGNSGreat for signage or decoration, our metal signs are a truly versatile product, as they are printed in full colour rather than traditional screen printing.

SECTION B
Feeding from a roll opens up a world of possibilities and allows us to produce products which would be hard, or commercially impractical, to produce any other way. Our 5000 machine can print on a wide variety of substrates and produces high quality finished results. It is a duplexing machine, printing on the front and reverse of a sheet at the same time, which means that front to back registration is always perfect.

CONCERTINA FOLD PERSONALISED BROCHURESBrochures can have an almost unlimited number of panels and make an interesting alternative to a conventional booklet. Plus they can say much more allowing the use of wide panoramic photos or rather more mundane spreadsheets!
Being printed digitally means personalising each to the recipient is simply a matter of working from a Database.
SHELF TALKERSShelf talkers are a perennially popular product, and the volume we produce rises year on year. Having a talker which fits the length of a gondola exactly saves considerable amounts of time when they need to be changed, and reduces the possibility of error. Each can of course be personalised if that is the requirement.
HEIGHT CHARTS AND TIMELINESAre you the size of a Hyena, a Kangaroo, an Elephant or a Giraffe or, closer to home a Wheelie Bin or a Postbox? Our Height Charts would make a great addition to a Nursery or Doctor’s reception.
Timelines find uses in business situations where they can be used to give a quick visual representation of progress or can be used for planning. Both products can be plastic encapsulated after printing for long term durability.

Ink Jet Digital Press
has a number of unique
features which make it a

“
”
SECTION C
Using Ink Jet heads on a sheet fed Digital press means there is no longer a need to wrap paper sheets around a cylinder to print.
Keeping sheets flat is a real advantage in that it greatly
increases the thickness of materials which can be printed,
and most importantly, for many of the applications we
have for the press, sheets can be cut and creased before
they are printed! This allows us to carry many blank sheets
for a particular profile (eg Conference Folders) and then
print small quantities on demand. With no finishing on the
printed sheets we can produce small quantities of standard
products exceptionally cost effectively.
Plus, if you have an ongoing requirement for a product
in batches (e.g. a present each time someone in your
database has a Birthday) we can pre-cut and crease a
particular shape, just for you, in volume at the start, so that
subsequent printed batches are instant and economical.

PERSONALISED CONFERENCE FOLDERSWould your delegates be impressed by a 600 micron Conference Folder personalised for them? With our Digital Press this is now not only entirely possible it is also exceptionally cost effective, using our pre-cut folder shape.
PERSONALISED COUNTDOWN CALENDARSOur most popular Countdown Calendars have seven windows and are designed to be posted to potential attendees a week before an event.
Each window contains a Foil wrapped 5gm Swiss chocolate to provide a tasty reminder to visit the event. The windows can also contain a ‘killer’ reason why attendance would be a real benefit.
We can also produce similar fourteen days to go Countdown Calendars and conventional advent calendars. In all cases every calendar can be personalised to the individual.

PERSONALISED PLAYING CARDSWe can produce personalised packs in very low quantities starting at just one pack! Playing Cards have an ongoing appeal and can be used to present a portfolio of work, student do’s and don’ts or a complete adventure in photos, as well as being used as Playing Cards of course!! Our cards are printed on purpose made black cored playing card board.
SHORT PRINT RUN BOXESWould you like to ‘road test’ an idea before producing packaging for hundreds or thousands? Or is your production always going to be exclusive? We can produce boxes in low to medium quantities, with each personalised to the recipient if you prefer. Our boxes are printed on 600micron Folding Box Board for exceptional strength and rigidity.
PERSONALISED WINE BOXESOur Personalised Wine Boxes are a fantastic way to say thank you to loyal Customers or treasured Guests. They are Digitally printed on thick, Gloss Varnished 600 micron Folding Box Board for exceptional durability.
You can have a different name (or a completely different design) on each and every box. Our boxes are designed for standard 75cl wine bottles.
Boxes will arrive folded flat ready for quick assembly. We can recommend an exceptional wine wholesaler if you would like assistance in sourcing your wine.

Whilst size isn’t everything it can be telling when the ultimate quality and / or volume economy of Litho Printing is required for larger products.
Our press can handle a wide range of substrates and is
particularly useful when used in conjunction with our
downstream Paper to Board Laminator (Litho Lamination).
This combination allows us to produce the fluted boards
we use in the production of Point Of Sale and Packaging
products which are described on the following pages.
Incredibly the 162 Litho Press can print a sheet of paper
measuring a jumbo size of 1200mm x 1600mm and up to
1mm (1000 microns) thick, printed both sides!

In the western world the one thing consumers are never short of is choice. In such a market the challenge is to stand out from the crowd, and there is an increasing trend towards using large format litho printing to produce Point of Sale over more traditional Flexographic techniques. The reason is clear, litho print produces finished products of exceptional clarity and quality which can serve to be a differentiator at the crucial ‘decision time’.

POINT OF SALE EVOLUTION
Our experienced team can work from your
initial concept and help to crystallise exactly what is the intent of the finished design.
From the initial discussions we work on developing a three dimensional model. During this development phase potential design
constraints can be overcome long before committing to a
physical item.
Once the design has been fully developed ‘on screen’ we can produce a prototype to make sure
that the finished product will perform exactly as envisaged. The prototype
can be ‘white’ or with full graphics depending 0n your requirements. At this stage consumer
testing can be carried out, perhaps by placing the
finished product in store and gauging reaction.
Where feedback suggests modifications to the first
design these can quickly be incorporated.
As soon as the prototype is approved we can move to
production on either our Flat Bed Ink jet machine or our
Large format Litho Press. The choice of ‘output device’ will
depend on a number of factors, most notably the quantity
of the finished run.
MIX AND
MATCH
Finally the completed units can be installed in-situ. We can supply
units ‘flat packed’ with in store assembly instructions. However,
this relies on the competence of in-store staff to assemble the unit correctly and fill it with THE product as intended. Increasingly we are being asked to ‘co-pack’ where the
products to be displayed are supplied to us and we take responsibility
for the correct ‘lOading’ of the unit. The finished
items are then delivered to individual stores
where they simply need to be put on display
ready to vend.
Our service is completely
‘Pick and Mix’. If you have
a fully worked design
we are very happy to
go into production.
Conversely, if youR only
requirement is for a
design concept we can
quote for that element
of the project only.
DISPLAY BOARDSWe produce our hanging boards on fair faced grey board. The boards we use are either 3mm or 5mm thick depending on the size. Any board can be finished simply with holes for hanging. We can also produce shaped boards which can be much more ‘attention grabbing’. An important consideration with all Point Of Sale is end of campaign disposal. The benefit of using card cored boards is that they can be placed in established re-cycling channels without additional expense.
POSTERSUsing our KBA162 press we can produce any quantity of large format posters, from one upwards, on a variety of materials. Where your requirement is for large volumes of posters, anything over 100 pieces, litho print is almost certain to be the most economical choice, as well as being the best quality possible. We would be delighted to discuss your project requirements with you.

SECTION E
All our modern line up of presses have been selected with one criteria uppermost in our minds - the need to produce consistently excellent print which will not only satisfy the requirements of our clients but positively delight them.
Our KBA 106 meets these requirements in spades. As
well as being one of the fastest make ready presses on
the market, which brings economic benefits which we are
pleased to pass on, the build quality means we can print
using Stochastic Screening. This technology, which uses
finer ink dots than normal printing, requires a press of
real calibre as well as the very highest standards of press
maintenance and expertise to be executed successfully.
Perhaps for these reasons it is rare in the print industry,
the benefits of using it are, however, clear to see in our
finished production.

PAPERS & BOARDS
We offer a huge range of Paper and Board Stocks which have been selected for their exceptional quality and ‘printability’.
The materials we use are FSC grade materials. FSC, the Forest Stewardship Council, is a tightly controlled standard of Forest Husbandary which ensures that trees are a sustainable resource. FSC is considered to be the ‘gold standard’ of responsible forest management.
We have printed this catalogue on a wide range of our standard stocks to give you access to a ‘live’ example of how the material performs in practice. In addition, where full pages cannot be printed we have affixed numerous samples to pages. Space does not allow us to include all the papers we offer and we would be pleased to quote you for your specific paper requirements.

Promotacards® make a lasting impression in seconds without you needing to say a word. Promotacards® are a Mini brochure and a Business Card all in one and offer compelling advantages over ‘traditional’ marketing.
PROMOTACARDSWe offer a full range of Leaflets and Posters from Credit Card size right up to 1600mm x 1200mm on a range of different papers to suit every application. Please see page 28 for a quick lookup of where you can find samples of the various leaflet stocks we offer in this portfolio.
LEAFLETS AND POSTERS
We also offer a range of finishing options, from simple folding, in half or thirds and cross folding to take an A3 sheet down to 1/3 A4 size. Leaflets can also be drilled and round cornered if required. We can also die cut leaflets to make eye-catching collateral designed to increase response rates. Using new laser cutting techniques (please see pages 62 and 63) we can even cut previously impossible shapes or personalised messages into every sheet!
They do not need to tell the entire story, they simply need to ‘tweak the interest’ and lend themselves to directing clients to additional information online. We can even help you to add QR codes to your Promotacards® which can be read directly by modern phones.
Available in two flat formats: Double Business Card size (Portrait or Landscape) or Triple Business Card (Portrait). They are printed in Full Colour on both sides and supplied flat, creased ready to fold to their finished size of 85mm x 55mm at the point of use. They can be specified with Gloss or Matt coating to the face side. For ultimate impact they can be Digitally Embossed.

STATIONERY
equest® is an exclusive range of FSC paper and board which is an industry benchmark in terms of quality and usability. It has unique features which have helped establish it as a market leader.
equest® sets the standard in terms of sheet smoothness and whiteness. equest® is guaranteed Inkjet and laser compatible and is great to work with. It makes a definite statement when it arrives on someone’s desk or is presented as a Business Card.
Being fully FSC compliant means that it can bear the FSC logo to signal that the company really cares about the environment and has made a positive contribution to it.
equest® is the only material which is not only watermarked on Letterheads but also on every Compliment Slip. With other brands, where the Compliment Slips are printed on Letterhead paper, the watermark ends up being only on every third Compliment Slip - rather disconcerting for a ‘quality’ product. With equest® you can be sure that every slip will be watermarked like every other
The matching equest® Business Card stock is a solid 400gm. This means you can now have fabulous stationery and impressive Business Cards at the same time.
equest® can form the start and finish of your printing. The 400gm Business Card material can also be specified for Invitation Cards and Postcards (see sample on this page).Image is important, make sure you present your business in the best possible light.
This sheet is 120 equest® and on page 34 we show an example of a letterhead and compliment slip.

Our Instant 3Ds™ are fantastic dynamic attention grabbers! Packed flat inside a standard envelope they spring into three dimensions as soon as they are ‘released’. The effect is so unexpected it is certain that your letter will be noticed and your ‘gift’ will become an office talking point!
INSTANT 3Ds™In an increasingly complex world, it is the simple things which prove the most effective. Tent Cards are simply scored card folded to the shape of a triangle but they cannot be bettered at drawing attention to offers or exclusives on restaurant tables or when they are used on a desktop as a handy always available calendar look up.
TENT CARDS
PRINTED CARD PRODUCTS
FURTHER INFORMATION
Instant 3Ds™ are a great way of differentiating your mail from the rest and making sure that it is your message which is heard!
Instant 3Ds™ are printed in Full Colour and either Gloss or Matt Laminated. Our standard range consists of two designs, Square Box and Pyramid. The Square Box Instant 3D™ is designed to fit into a DL (1/3rd A4) envelope and the Pyramid Instant 3D™ into a C5 (A5 size) envelope.
FURTHER INFORMATION
We offer two types of Tent Cards. Both can be supplied Unlaminated, Gloss Laminated or Matt Laminated. The first is printed on two faces and has a centre score on the third face to allow for flat packing. These Tent Cards are supplied assembled.

Top quality folders for presentations, promotions and much more. Printed on one or both sides in either Spot or Full Colour, and in two sizes to hold either A4 or A5 size inserts. Folders can be Gloss or Matt laminated, we also offer the option of Spot UV Varnishing.
FOLDERSOur range of CD and DVD Products are the perfect product to package multimedia presentations, music CDs or software.
We offer Slip Cases, Inlay Trays, Inserts and CD Booklets to complement our Sleeves and give a CD or DVD that professional finish.

FRIDGE MAGNETS
PRINTED CARD PRODUCTS
FURTHER INFORMATIONWe offer a range of popular standard boxes ranging in size from Playing Card size right up to Software, Cookie and Wine Box sizes*. We would be very happy to quote if the size of box you require falls outside our standard range.
Our boxes are supplied flat and glued, ready for use and there is no additional forme charge on our standard Box range. Larger boxes in this range can be specified with a Fluted liner to give even greater stiffness if required, with Spot UV Varnish as well as Lamination available.
* Much bigger boxes can be produced using our Litho Lamination. Please see page 22 for details.
FURTHER INFORMATIONOur Fridge Magnets can be printed either single or double sided. Self adhesive magnets which are 12mm wide x 50mm long are supplied separately and loose ready for assembly. Whilst being exceptionally strong magnets they have an ultra low, 1.5mm, profile which means they are virtually flush to the surface, minimising the chance of them being knocked off.
Fridge magnets are the ideal medium for conveying a message long term - such as a next dental check-up or the contact details of a 24 hour plumber. The gloss finish also allows them to be used as a wipe off memo board (using a wipe off pen). Of course they are just as effective as a simple Business Card.
Wobblers are a great way of attracting extra attention to items on display. Their constant movement as people pass by really alerts people to their message.
WOBBLERS
FURTHER INFORMATIONWobblers are a great way of attracting extra attention to items on display.
Our Wobblers are printed in Full Colour on 400gm Matt Card and gloss coated on the face side for ultimate durability and can be Die-Cut to virtually any shape. Clear Acetate Struts with self-adhesive pads at each end are supplied loose with Wobblers.
It is also possible to specify Spring or pliable Metal Twister Struts at an additional cost.
Please Note: In order to convey information on the reverse as well as the front, our Fridge Magnets are designed to have a small strip of magnetic material. They do not have a continuous magnetic reverse.

Our Labels are litho printed for exceptional quality and durability. They are designed to perform well in a wide variety of applications.
Our Labels are self-adhesive and have a white semi-gloss finish. They are permanent (i.e. non removable once applied). The Label backing is split diagonally which makes it easy to peel the Label from the backing no matter what the Label size.

All sizes of Label can be round cornered if required. The cutters available are for either a 3mm or a 10mm radius corner. We are now able to Die-Cut or Kiss-Cut shapes out of A6, A5, A4 or 250mm square Labels. Kiss-Cutting means that the Label material is cut but the backing sheet is not. The cut Labels are retained on the backing.
Please Note: Our Label material is not waterproof and should not be used in damp conditions or in fridges. Our minimum size Label is 40mm in either direction. We would always recommend a small quantity run initially to confirm their suitability for a particular application.

SECTION F
The exceptionally fast make ready times of these presses, together with quick change ink systems, means that we can print a huge variety of Spot Colour Print efficiently and economically. In addition the quick loading and unloading of material means that it is practical to offer a wide range of Paper for Spot Colour and Full Colour Printing.
As with all our presses our Speedmaster is connected to our pre-press department so that all the ink settings for a job are loaded into the machine before a sheet is printed.
This pre-setting to correct colour values greatly reduces the amount of run up sheets required before the press is ready to print the finished job. In addition, the amount of ink required for a particular job is pre-calculated at the pre-press stage. Since we mix all our Spot Colour Ink on demand on site we produce only the precise measure of ink required for each job.
All these material saving measures are closely aligned to our aim of being as environmentally friendly as possible.

MATERIALS
We carry a huge range of exciting papers and cards ‘on the shelf’ which we are pleased to detail here.
The advantage of choosing to print Spot Colour or ‘Non Standard’ Full Colour Printing on these materials is that we can be sure of turnaround. Other materials may have a lead time from the manufacturer which can extend production times. Of course we would be delighted to quote for your precise requirements.
Samples of some of the products listed here are contained in this portfolio. Where this is the case the pages on the material are detailed. We would be pleased to provide you with samples of the paper you have chosen, for confirmation when you order.

ENVELOPES
Printed envelopes make the right impression first time every time.
Pre-made then Printed Envelopes
For standard business communications printing onto a pre-
made envelope is the most cost effective way of envelope
personalisation. There are however some inherent design
limitations: print must be inset 10mm from all edges and
printing across different thicknesses (e.g. the flap) is not
successful. Please see the schematic to the right below.
Printed then Made Envelopes
Printing on a flat sheet of paper before making the
envelopes removes the limitations of the ‘Pre-Made then
Printed’ Envelopes detailed above. It is possible to print
on every part of the Envelope, and even on the inside if
required.
The only disadvantage of producing Envelopes this way
is that the cost of setup is quite high, making small runs
expensive. For larger runs the costs compare favourably
with ‘Pre-Made then Printed’ Envelopes.
Our standard size is C5 but we can provide a bespoke
quote for your specific Envelope requirements.
Printed then made envelopes can be produced on virtually
any materials but most commonly we use 100gm Executive
(see page 30 for a sample) or 115gm Gloss Art (see page 64
for a sample).

NCR SETS
An NCR Set consists of at least two sheets. They rely on pressure to transfer an image from the top sheet to those underneath. They can be used with a ball point pen or using an impact printer such as a Dot Matrix or Daisy Wheel.
The amount of pressure required to form an adequate
copy on the bottom sheet increases with the number of
sheets in the set, for this reason sets should not normally
be more than five sheets. Sheets are available in the
following colours: Blue, Pink, Green, Yellow and White.
NCR Sets are supplied ready to use as loose individual sets
as standard. It is possible to specify numerous finishing
options to your NCR Sets, such as numbering, padding into
books and perforation. A 170gm white card bottom sheet
can be specified if required. This is particularly useful in
applications where loose sets are needed but flat surfaces
for writing are difficult to find! Speak to us for details of
the full range of options.

This is by far the most common and simplest form of binding. Four Page sections are folded down the centre and collated before being stapled together on the spine. This type of binding is most suitable for books with a smaller numbers of pages. How many pages can be stitched bound depends on the paper used for the pages. As a guide a booklets made with 115gm material can be stitched bound with up to 80 pages and one with 200gm inners can be stitched bound with up to 36 pages.
Where your Book contains more pages or where the requirement is for it to have a spine, Perfect Binding is an excellent solution. By way of an example of Perfect Binding, this Portfolio has been bound this way. Books must contain a larger number of pages in order for it to be possible to form a spine. Typically for a book to be Perfect Bound it must contain at least 56 pages of 115gm material and 36 pages of 200gm. There is no particular limit on the number of pages that a Perfect Bound Book can have other than the practicalities of using it. A Book of more than 300 pages may be better split into two volumes.
Hard Back Books are generally considered to be the optimal way of presenting written information. When something is presented hard bound it is generally perceived as being prestigious. The requirements regarding page count for a Case Bound Book are similar to those for Perfect Bound. The big difference is that once the inner pages have been glued into a block they are drawn into a hard cover. The hard cover is made by gluing the printed cover onto a stiff board. This finished ‘Case’ is then glued onto the inner pages to form the finished book. As an optional addition a Hard Back Book can have a ‘second’ cover which laps into the front and back pages to form a protective wrap. These are known as dust jackets.
This form of binding is particularly useful for books which will be opened frequently and must stay open on a particular page without holding. Pages have a line of holes cut in them adjacent to the edge. A circular wire is then inserted to bind the pages together. The form of binding is commonly used for School Work Books and Recipe Books. There is no upper or lower limit to the number of pages which can be spiral bound.

Our Exhibition Stand is a one piece fold away unit which can be erected or packed away in seconds, and is designed to provide years of trouble free use.
Technical Information
The stand consists of three main panels and two end
panels, which curve around the sides. Each of the five

originally produced by us), please return the original
panels with the magnetic strips attached. The original
graphic will not be returned.
Our stands come complete with two halogen lamps which
fix to the frame ready for use.

the stand is viewed from the front. Also only the centre
(486mm) of the Carry Case graphic can be viewed from
the front. We would be pleased to send you templates for
your design.

Turning your car or van into a ‘walking billboard’ is a great way to build brand awareness. We can help you to design a complete wrap which will cover every inch of your car or van’s paintwork and turn even the most bland vehicle into an attention grabber. Using our roll fed Ink Jet technology we can print on special vinyls designed for wrapping vehicles. Working in conjunction with a national team we can now also fit your wrap to your vehicle virtually anywhere in the country.
VEHICLE WRAPPING
We also offer colour change vehicle wrapping.
If you would like us to help you turn your vehicle into a twenty four hour, year in year out marketing tool please get in touch.
We offer three Standard Sized Canvas Prints, we keep these frames in stock and can offer exceptional prices without compromising on quality.
These are 210mm square, 350mm square or 500mm square.
STANDARD SIZE CANVAS PRINTS
Our unique production system means we are able to produce Canvas Prints of any size, from a minimum of 200mm in either direction, to a maximum of 1500mm, again in either direction.
BESPOKE SIZE CANVAS PRINTS
We have invested in the technology required to produce Canvas Prints of the ultimate quality available. The material used is 350gm polycotton canvas. We use Solvent Based Inks to ensure print colour stability for an extended period. Indeed we are so confident in the longevity of our Canvas Prints that we offer a lifetime (75 years +) guarantee against fade.
Our frames are deep kiln dried redwood produced from FSC forests. Canvas is stretched to optimum tension to completely remove the need for later re-tensioning. Printed canvas extends around the sides of the frame. This means that the image can either continue to bleed or be mirrored depending on the subject matter. Alternatively, we can leave the sides unprinted (white) or print the sides any other colour. Our prints are provided with easy hang fittings which allow the print to be mounted completely flush to the wall.

digital embossingSCODIX 1200
Digital Embossing makes
your message infinitely
more compelling. It makes
print a sensual as well as a
visual experience.
“
”
SECTION H
Digital Embossing can be used to embellish the majority of our products, both Litho and Digital, although it is certainly most effective when applied to thicker materials and over Matt Lamination.
Digital Embossing is an environmentally friendly
embellishment. It produces no harmful waste products or
dangerous Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and uses
small amounts of power in production. And, because the
process is Digital, there is no lower limit on quantity.
We are happy to process just one sheet if required or a
series of sheets each embossed in a unique way.
The preparation for Digital Embossing could not be
easier. We just need an additional Black Separation with
image in all the areas where you would like to have Digital
Embossing. Because of the exceptional accuracy of the
process (each sheet is registered optically before printing)
the most complex shapes can be embossed.

If yoursample of
Digital Embossingis not attachedplease call us
and we will bedelighted tosupply one.
It is even possible to include half tones in your design (tints
of black) which will make the embossing texture on the
finished page. If you would like us to prepare your black
separation, or have a particularly complex embossing
project which you simply do not have time to prepare
yourself, then we would be pleased to help.
Low Lift
With Low Lift Emboss the effect is somewhat similar
(though there is still much more texture) to the very
highest high lift UV varnish.
And, of course, there are the overwhelming advantages
of a pin point accurate register, ability to emboss complex
shapes and an environmentally friendly process.
High Lift
With High Lift Emboss the real creative advantages of
Embossing come to the fore. The effectiveness of the
embellishment is immediately apparent. The normal
reaction is instant approval, no questions, simply ‘to see it
is to love it’.

makes the expensive

SECTION I
Using a precision laser driven by a digital file our new Motion Cutter can cut through paper and card with incredible precision, meaning that cuts of almost infinite complexity can be accomplished without difficulty.
So, if you would like to produce a Business Card with
hundreds of tiny pin holes then we can do it. If you would
like to produce a mailer with a breakout at the top then we
can do that too, no matter how intricate the design.
Using traditional die cutting techniques such complexity
would have been either prohibitively expensive or in many
cases simply impossible.
As well as being able to make very complex cuts the Motion
Cutter can also cut every sheet differently, something
which would be simply impractical with a traditional die.
This opens up the possibility of personalised Die cutting,
with every product having a different cut of, say, the name

PAG
of each recipient. So if you fancy sending a promotion to
coffee lovers with a personalised topping sprinkler then
we can do that too.
The Motion Cutter laser is controllable to exceptionally
fine tolerances which allows us to also Kiss cut Labels
so that the backing sheet remains intact and the shaped
labels can be peeled off. It can even remove the surface
from a sheet allowing a black printed sheet to be
personalised simply by ‘etching’ lines in the black surface.
We have included samples of the output from our Motion
Cutter in our Portfolio. Please turn to page 65 to see
examples of the output.

Laser cutting of materials has been a reality for some years now. When it comes to cutting paper and board the challenge has always been to achieve a laser cut without peripheral burning of the material. The Motion Cutter uses a very high powered laser which moves at high speed. The cut portion of the paper or board is vapourised ‘instantly’ with minimal damage to the material.

servicesDIRECT MAIL
If you have ever sent
a Birthday Card then,
whether you know it or not,
you are a Direct Mailer. In
fact, a Birthday Card ticks
all the boxes when it comes
to Direct Mail and is just
about as powerful as it can
ever be!
“
”SECTION J
TAA ED GLOSS ARTR PAPERPP All our products are proudly printed in the UK.
The reason a Birthday Card is so powerful is that it is: Relevant, because it is that person’s Birthday; Personal, because it is especially written and addressed to them; and Emotional, who doesn’t enjoy receiving a card on their Birthday?
A Direct Mail piece should always be aiming to be as engaging with the
recipient as a Birthday Card, and the nearer a mailing is to having that level
of engagement the more effective it will be.
Relevant
By far the most important element of any campaign is the quality and
accuracy of the Data to be used. For any Marketing Campaign to be
successful it must be aimed at Relevant People. You may have the most
fantastic piece of Dental Equipment ever but if your marketing goes to Tree
Surgeons it is very unlikely to make much of an impact. Cheap Data will
almost always turn out to be a most expensive purchase. The amount of
resource wasted, either through telephone verification or returned postage
will be many times the extra cost of good quality data.
Personal
Throughout our catalogue you will see that we offer products Digitally as
well as Litho Printed. Digital print has the huge advantage of being one by
one. So it is possible to personalise your first Letter, Flyer, Folder, Box etc to
each recipient. Published data and our own experience tells us that the more
personalised a mailing is the more likely it is to get opened.

Emotional
The final element in achieving great Direct Mail is to get
Emotional ‘buy in’ from the recipient to the message being
conveyed. Of course the actual proposition is still very
important, but our recent investments in Digital Packaging
mean that we can now produce promotional materials
which really do stand out from the crowd and ensure that
you get the attention of your audience.
Prepare the Mailing List
Getting the list, or data, right is the cornerstone of any Direct
Mail. We offer a comprehensive range of List Creation and List
Cleansing Services. You can be sure that our service avoids
wasted resources and complies with Mailing legislation. The most
important consideration in acquiring a list is that it is up to date.
Research shows that after just twelve months up to 30% of data
is likely to be inaccurate.
For a new list of business clients we partner with Thomson
Business Search. They have over two million verified business
contacts and guarantee that it is no more than three months
since people on their database were contacted and their details
verified.
Our service is not limited only to new data. We are very happy
to carry out the cleaning of an existing list of lapsed customers
or prospects. Our service can include de-duplicating and
cross referencing to the Mail Preference service to eliminate
addresses of people who have specifically opted out of receiving
promotional mail. And we also offer the option of telephoning
contacts direct to ensure that the information held in the list
for them is contemporary and accurate. The goal is always to
minimise the amount of ineffective mail and maximise the return
on investment.
Once the list of recipients has been sourced it can be used to
create the mail shot. Good personalisation can greatly increase
the performance of a campaign and we offer different levels of
sophistication depending on the application.
Our automated Mailing machine can insert up to six inserts into
a DL, C5 or C4 sized envelope and we can also undertake ‘manual
mailings’, where the item to be sent is, for example, a small box or
tube.
Preparing the Mailing - Mailing Options
Option One - Generic contents inserted into plain,
addressed envelopes
Option Two - Personalised letter inserted into window
envelopes
Option Three - Full Colour Digital Print
Option Four - Full Colour Digital Packaging
Our recently launched Digital Packaging really does mean ‘the
sky is the limit’ when it comes to making very special Direct mail.
We would be delighted to work with you on producing award
winning, standout mailing pieces.
Sending Your Mailing
Who to choose to send your mailing with is crucial in making it
cost effective.
Once your mailing is complete it must be sent to your recipients.
Who to choose to send your mailing with is crucial in making it
cost effective. In addition there are often very substantial savings
to be made in mailing costs by pre-sorting mail prior to entrusting
it to the Royal Mail or other post provider.
The decision of the company to be used is best made early in the
production process so that the order of names in the list can be
changed to optimise carriage savings.
We would be pleased to help you to choose the best service for
your application.

DATACARDS
Whether you are looking for a business card with a difference, a short term information card or a durable membership card, one of our extensive range of Full Colour Datacards will fit the bill.
Gold Datacard
Gold Datacards are printed on 400gm Triple Coated Matt
Art card which is then sealer varnished on both sides.
They can also be gloss or matt laminated on both sides.
Platinum Datacard
Platinum Datacards are a laminate construction of rigid
plastic on a card core, this gives them an all over brilliant
high gloss finish. The Datacard thickness is such that it
gives a substantial feel and appearance.
Titanium Datacard
Our top of the range Card features a plastic core,
providing excellent durability similar to a conventional
credit card. We can die-cut Titanium cards, which means
quirky shapes such as key fobs or phone charms can be
created. The shaped Card is retained within the Datacard
until the user ‘pops it out’ for use on, typically, a keyring.
Additional Features
Datacards can be printed with Variable Data, this can
consist of a Barcode, Pin Number and Serial Number
provided the variable data is on one side of the card.
Larger quantities of cards can feature both Signature
and Scratch Off Strips with variable data, we would be
delighted to quote for your requirements.

SCRATCHCARDS
Our Scratchcards measure 98mm wide x 136mm tall and are printed on rigid 350gm Card. The standard reverse designs are printed in Full Colour and your front design can be Single, Multi or Full Colour.
Options
We have a number of reverse designs available to suit the
majority of promotional campaigns. We have prepared a
PDF detailing how each can be used and the best way to
set up your front artwork. The huge advantage of choosing
a standard reverse design (rather than having a completely
bespoke one) is that we have already printed the cards in
volume and can pass on the economies of scale.
The prizes you award to each class of winner is entirely
up to you. Normally the prizes will be detailed within your
front design.
To produce your campaign, simply tell us which Standard
Design you require for the reverse, how many of each class
of card you would like and send us your front design.
E.g. 250 Scratchcards required:
5 First Prizes, 10 Second Prizes, 20 Third. Prizes and 215
losers. Each class is packed separately giving you complete
control of when contestants will draw your winning cards.
Bespoke Designs
Whilst our ready made solution is highly cost effective, you
may have a requirement for a fully personalised scratch
card campaign. Our bespoke estimating team would be

We specialise in printing
from supplied artwork.
Our Pre-Print Checking is
a key part of our workflow.
It incorporates a number
of crucial elements which
together are designed to
ensure that the finished
work we produce exceeds
expectations.
“
”SECTION M
We like to think of our relationship with our clients as a partnership. As with any partnership a successful outcome depends on partners working closely together.
We strongly recommend reading the Artwork Guidance
notes on the following pages. Adherence to our
recommendations at the artwork stage will ensure that
we are able to process your work swiftly to a successful
outcome which benefits everyone.
Sending Your FilesWherever possible, files should be sent to us online. This is by
far the fastest and most efficient means by which you can get
your artwork to us. We recommend compressing files before
sending them. The reduction in size makes sending the files much
faster. It also makes the transfer more reliable, especially for Mac
files because some elements may be hidden files and these are
automatically included during compression.

Free trial versions of compression software are available from
the following locations: For PKzip, which is designed for the PC,
please visit www.pkware.com
For Stuffit, which is designed for the Mac, please visit
www.stuffit.com/mac/deluxe
If for some reason uploading files is not possible then we can, if
required, take ‘hard media,’ such as USB sticks, CDs or DVDs. We
make a £5.00 + VAT additional administration charge for files
supplied on Hard Media. Unfortunately we cannot return Hard
Media. It will be destroyed once the print has been concluded.
File FormatWe use the very latest Adobe PDF (Portable Document Format)
Processors in our Prepress Department. Our workflow is
exclusively based around this format and working with PDF files.
All design work should be presented to us in this format. The only
exception to the requirement for PDF is when you would like
us to carry out the artwork preparation for a Variable Data job.
Please see page 76.
Your PDF should be prepared at press quality with artwork
centred on pages. Please refer to pages 77 to 79 for advice on
artwork preparation.
Please ensure that once you produce your PDF you check it
carefully before sending it to us. Whilst software is usually
reliable, there are times when the PDF produced differs from
the intent of the original file. Since the PDF supplied is the only
file we have to work with it is exceptionally important that the
way your PDF looks is the way you would like your finished job
to look. Our commitment is to ensure that our print matches the
PDF provided.
Preparing artwork for Variable Digital PrintingFor the majority of products we now offer the option of Digital
as well as Litho Printing. It may be that Digital is the preferred
option simply because the volume of print required is small.
However it may also be that Digital is the solution because each
sheet is to be different from the one before and the one following.
Provided you supply a single file consisting of one page or
multiple pages we make no distinction when it comes to pricing
between Digitally printing many of one page or printing one of
each of many pages. So if you want fifty copies of a single page
PDF or one copy of each page of a fifty page PDF then the price
for printing is the same. The main proviso is that everything for
a job must be contained in a single PDF and all pages in a single
document must be the same size and the same orientation.
Preparing artwork for variable data printing is straightforward
and can be achieved using a number of programmes. For simple
addressing on the top of a conventional letter the programme
we usually use is Microsoft Word. If you are not familiar with
how to prepare a Variable Data PDF from word there is a useful
tutorial on Youtube which may help: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWIbkxl8oLE
For more complex variable data printing we attach the list file to
Adobe Indesign which allows more complex variability. For
information on preparing a variable data project using Indesign it
may be worth looking at this Youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWIbkxl8oLE

happy to set up your variable
data PDF for you. We charge
different amounts for this
service depending on the type
of variable file you require.

We have some blooming great offers especially for you!
Van Nicholsseeds of character
Tick the “Embed all fonts” option
Variable data - names in textPlease supply your base design as a PDF and your data in an Excel Spreadsheet or as a CSV (Comma Separated Variable) file.
The setup charge for the addition of one field of data from the spreadsheet is £25.00. Additional fields are £2.00 each. Once the set up has been completed we then charge £0.05 per page to produce the output PDF.
E.g. 100 conference delegates, each requiring a Single Sided personalised folder containing their course notes. Each folder is to have the name of the delegate and their ID number.
We produce a 100 page PDF from your artwork with each page being the folder personalised with the delegate’s name ready for
printing.
Variable data - names in picturesUsing ‘Direct Smile’ software we can embed variable data right into photos to create absolutely unique and exceptionally engaging personalisation. Again the base design should be supplied as a PDF. The setup charge for the first image to be used in the project is £35.00. The setup charge for each additional image is £4.00. After that we charge £0.09 per page to create the output PDF ready for Digital Printing.
Eg. You would like to send a special postcard to 300 favoured customers with a picture of flowers growing in a flower bed spelling out the names of the recipients and a slogan. The setup charge for the one image would be £25.00 and the cost of producing the output PDF 999999999 999 would be 300 x £0.09 = £27.00. So the total cost to produce the PDF origination would be £52.00.
If Names in Pictures appeals to you we would be delighted to send you a PDF of all our current images.
FontsWhen creating your PDF it is important to specify that fonts used should be embedded. This is normally a tick box in the PDF export area of the programme or an option in an external PDF creator. If fonts are not embedded they may ‘default’ causing unwanted font substitutions and reject print.
Photographs & GraphicsPhotographs should be scanned at the size required in your finished design at 400dpi and saved as CMYK images.
Please note: It is important that images are originated at this 400dpi high quality. Re-sampling an image of a lower resolution (say 72dpi from the internet) to 400dpi does not improve its quality and does not make it suitable for high quality print.
Monitor calibration is a big consideration when scanning and colour balancing. If your monitor is not calibrated, the image you see on screen may differ from the image on the final print. We recommend obtaining our Hard Copy Colour Charts. As well as a comprehensive range of colour swatches these include an image which is called ‘Ole No Moire’. The same image is available for download from www.printinfo.co.uk together with calibration instructions.
The Ole No Moire image is useful in carrying out basic monitor calibration.
By opening the Ole No Moire image on your screen and comparing it with the image on the Chart, you can carry out a fair calibration of your monitor. Once this has been done, when you view a photo on screen, it will be a close rendition of the press print.
THIS PAGE IS PRINTED ON 115GM TRIPLE COATAA ED GLOSS ARTR PAPERPP
Flattening ArtworkWhere designs are built up using a number of layers and transparencies, it is important that they are ‘flattened’ before creating the PDF. Un-flattened transparencies are notorious for causing print problems. ‘Flattening’ your artwork will ensure that the finished print is as expected, without compromising the creative intent.
PRE PRINT GUIDE TO ARTWORK
Colour MatchingThroughout your design the colours used must be CMYK colours. There are a large number of variables which can affect the colour produced during Full Colour Printing. Simply looking at the appearance of colours on a monitor, especially if no monitor calibration has been carried out (please see the previous ‘Photographs and Graphics’ section), is unlikely to give you an accurate impression of the colour of printed work.
The problem is the same with an un-calibrated desktop printer, such as a laser or inkjet. Those may well render very different colours to those produced on a professional printing press.
Rather than leaving colour matching to chance and ‘keeping your fingers crossed,’ we strongly recommend that colours are chosen from our Hard Copy Colour Charts. We have produced two Charts (one is printed on coated material and the other is printed on uncoated material). Each shows over 1000 colours together with their CMYK values. The advantage of using these charts is that they are exactly matched to our presses. When a colour is chosen from the swatch sheets and the CMYK values selected in your design, you can be confident that the finished result will closely match your expectations.
Our Colour Swatch Booklets are available for £15.00 + VAT & Carriage each or £25.00 + VAT for the pair. They are an invaluable and accurate way of ensuring predictable colour.
Please note: Where you have a particular colour issue, for example a requirement to match to a specific company colour or a previously printed job, this MUST be brought to our attention at
the order stage. Simply specify the colour to be matched to or that the job has been previously printed in the ‘Special Instructions’ section during the online ordering process.
If you have a swatch of the colour required, please send us a hard copy. We cannot be held responsible if your printed work does not match your requirements unless those requirements are brought to our attention before we print.
ProofsOur normal service does not include proofs. At Pre-press we check that our printing will match the files provided. By dispensing with the need for proofs to be signed before print commences, we have greatly improved the speed and efficiency of our service.
However, we recognise that in some circumstances proofs are desirable and we are pleased to produce these from your Digital Artwork prior to printing. Please be aware that sending proofs will add time to the overall turnaround.
We offer three types of proofs: PDF Proofs, Wet Proofs and Montage Wet Proofs.
PDF Proofs: These are sent digitally via Email or through a download system for larger files. They are a ‘normalised PDF’, produced from our Pre-press system and are an exact representation of what we will print. They are ideal for checking layout and content but are only as accurate as your monitor calibration with regards to colour.
Wet Proofs: These are an exact match to the job which will eventually be printed, since they are a small run of the finished job on press. We would always recommend a small run of print (to be used as a wet proof) prior to any very large run of print.
Montage Wet Proofs: Often the reason that a Wet Proof is considered is that there are a couple of critical ‘house colours’ or there is a particular photo which needs to be checked. In these circumstances a less expensive alternative to a full Wet Proof may be to create a montage of the critical elements and order a Montage Wet Proof of this.

PRE PRINT GUIDE TO ARTWORK
Artwork central and backing up correctlyIt is important that artwork is positioned centrally on your layout. Our pre-press system works from the centre of the page in aligning jobs for print. At pre-press the correct size aperture for the job to be printed is filled with the image on the page running out from the page centre. If a job is off-centred or if front and back are placed on a single layout then, potentially, only a portion of the job will appear in the aperture and be printed! (see fig. 1)
It is also important that jobs backup correctly with the orientation of each page being the same. We strongly recommend printing proofs from the PDF you have created to your own printer prior to submission. (see fig.2)
If the sheet holding the reverse image must be rotated to backup correctly with the front then the file should be altered! Making a physical mock-up will highlight potential errors which are not easy to see on screen. (see fig.3)
Fig.1
Fig.2
Fig.3
Bleed and Quiet BorderUnderstanding the need for Bleed and a Quiet Border is vital if, we are going to achieve our joint aim of an excellent finished print job. We require Bleed to allow for the tolerance of our guillotines (the machines used for cutting your job after printing). Even with our state of the art equipment there is a margin of error with the operation. If your image finishes exactly at the edge of your required finished size then these small deviations may produce unsightly white flashes at the edge of your print. By extending your background colour or image beyond the edge of your finished job the effects of the same deviations are not noticeable. We recommend that elements intended to go to the very edge of your finished job should extend 3mm beyond the edge.
A Quiet Border is the distance you should allow from the edge of your finished page size for text, diagrams or images not going to bleed. The reason for the border is again the tolerance in cutting. If you have a design where the text runs to the very edge, then any cutting deviation will result in some of your text being cut off!! With a very small Quiet Border, even the smallest cutting deviation could result in the finished job looking uneven. We recommend a Quiet Border, where there is no text etc, of at least 5mm around the edges of your job.
Trimmed edge Any text should be inset at least 5mm from the trimmed edge

5mm 3mm
Images should bleed 3mm beyond the trimmed edge

File Pre-Print CheckOur detailed Pre-print Checking is a unique and highly regarded part of our service. Checking is prescribed on a minority of products and optional (but highly recommended) on the remainder.
When you opt for your file to be Pre-print Checked it will be reviewed by an experienced designer and checked by our proofreaders.
We check that:
• Artwork is central and backing up correctly.*
• There is sufficient Bleed and Quiet Area.*
• Fonts are embedded.*
• All elements of the job are CMYK (RGB and Spot Pantone colours may not print as expected in Full Colour).*
• The quality of pictures and text is to print standard.*
• There is colour consistency and wherever possible that the colours specified will print as viewed on screen.*
• We also carry out a rigorous proofreading exercise which, whilst not guaranteed to pick up every error, has proved a ‘lifesaver’ many times in the past, where embarrassing and costly mistakes have been spotted.*
* Please read on for an explanation of these items.
Where potential problems are highlighted we will (with your agreement) correct them if practical, often at no extra charge. Alternatively, we will request a corrected file.
Please note: If you ‘opt out’ of Pre-print Checking, your job will not be checked and will go through our automated pre-press system. It will not be seen by ‘human eyes’ before it is on press, by which time it will either be too late, or very expensive, to correct!
The cost of the Pre-print Check is £3.95 + VAT per item. For Books & Booklets the check is £9.95 + VAT up to 16 pages, please add an extra £2.00 + VAT per every additional 4 pages..
PRE PRINT GUIDE TO ARTWORK
Digital EmbossingSetting up artwork for Digital Embossing is straightforward. We simply need an additional separation to act as a mask for all the areas that you would like to have embossed on your work. This can be supplied as a separate PDF file or as an additional channel within your PDF. It is important to make sure that it is identical in all respects (size, orientation, crops, position of images and text etc.) to your original CMYK artwork.
Creating Artwork for Digital Embossing
If you just require some text or line art to be digitally embossed then the easiest way of preparing your Emboss plate is to make a duplicate of your original artwork. On this duplicate either delete or make white all the elements which you do not want embossed. All the embossed elements should be converted to black.
If the item to be embossed is a picture then a separate Black and White image file should be created. The method for creating the Embossing separation depends on the complexity of the ‘mask’. It may be possible to use the ‘magic wand’ selector tool in a programme such as Photoshop to highlight the areas for embossing. Alternatively it may be that the mask must be formed by tracing out the areas manually. This can be a time consuming process. If you would like help preparing your black mask please contact us and we can quote for undertaking this work.
To calculate the area of embossing in your design submit your separation to www.embosspot.com For best results please make sure you read the ‘How to Use’ section of the site BEFORE submitting your file for area calculation.
For a complex or demanding Emboss we strongly recommend running a small trial before committing to a production run.

At every stage of the production process we have
equipment and expertise designed to make the process
of bringing designs and ideas on screen to successful
‘physical fruition’. Of course not every job requires every
operation, the route will be determined by a variety of
factors such as run length, quality required, static or
variable content together with whether you want to take
advantage of comprehensive pre-print checking services.
Most of these routes are dictated by the job however
some can be down to personal preference. We have set
out the various elements of our service below to clarify
how jobs flow through our system.
Customer Services
Underpinning everything we do is our Customer Service
department, and will be constantly monitoring your jobs
as they progress through our works.
Pre-print check
One of the most highly regarded aspects of the us service
is our comprehensive Pre-print Checking. For a small
additional payment the artwork you send to us can be
thoroughly checked by Print Experts and dedicated Proof
Readers ahead of printing. This ensures that the finished
results meet and exceed your expectations.
Printing
Once your artwork is ready for print it will be sent to one
of our Presses. Digital for very small runs and variable
data, and Litho for larger runs.
Print Finishing
a finished job. Finishing can be as simple as cutting the
printing to size, or as complex as a booklet cover with Matt
Lamination and Digital Embossing bound to inners using
Perfect Binding. The finishing to be carried out will depend
on the product and the extras chosen.
Customer Services
Underpinning everything we do is our Customer Service
department, and will be constantly monitoring your jobs as

Quality Control
A key part of us is our attention to detail and quality and
our adherence to time lines. We constantly monitor every

Packing and Delivery
Completed work is carefully packaged and made ready for
transit. After all the best printing in the world is no good if
it arrives bent and broken. Delivery is the bridge between
us and clients. We monitor every delivery and constantly
check that everything has gone to plan.
