They use the latest printing technology and have no sales staff.

IT’S IN THE DETAILS
Things to consider before requesting an estimate.
For us to give you an accurate estimate, we need to know the details of your print project. Below are some questions to consider when requesting custom printing.
The finished size of your print project.
Do you require your project to be printed in full colour, black & white or will special spot colours be used?
How many pages are in your print project? Are they single sided or printed on both sides?
How many printed items do you need? If you are unsure about the quantity or you want to see the different price breaks, please supply 3 different quantities and we will include 3 different prices. As with most things, the more your order the more economical the individual pieces become.
How your print project will be used is very important. Will they be for indoor or outdoor use? Exposed to direct sunlight? Do people need to write on them?
Would you like glossy, matte, silky or a textured paper? Tear resistant or waterproof? Card or a thin paper?
Would you like a spot gloss varnish, UV varnish, silver, copper or gold foils or multicoloured foils.
Do you require any folding, die-cutting, perforations, bindings etc?
Do you require your print project completed by a certain date?
If you are unsure about your print project details or what you want or need, fill in the request an estimate form as best you can. We will contact you and explain the best options and solutions available for your project.
