Print Department

We recently installed our first heidelberg dedicated four colour printing press enabling us to achieve even higher standards than we had already set ourselves. The heidelberg is operated by our “rock star” Ant who also has been in print for more years than he cares to remember.

In addition to this our ‘flagship’ press we also have a Heidelberg GTO 52 - 2 colour 'alcolor' press with inline perforation and numbering, along side these are our jobbing ‘ab dick’ SRA3 two colour presses on which we print heavy weight invites, business cards, ncr sets, self adhesive labels and a large range of envelopes, press operators on here are Inky and his brother Graeme (Grub) and Chris.

People often ask “what sort of things do you print ?” our answer to that is usually “if it is printed, we can print it !” although there are limits as we do not like to cross swords with the fraud squad, so those fifty pound notes are not available. Generally though we can supply most printed matter from a simple black on white letterhead through to a full colour 80 page mail order magazine. If we are unable to ‘do the job’ because of whatever reason, we have many ‘trade’ contacts that enable us to farm the work out, companies we know will print to our high standards.

Also we offer a variety of additional printing processes including:

• metallic inks
• day-glo inks
• gloss/matt film lamination
• uv varnishing
• embossing
• blind embossing
• foil blocking
• gloss/matt sealant
• de-sensitising
