Printing & Binding

 

Once your job is approved, we move it to the Print and Binding Departments, we have a comprehensive range of print and bindery equipment installed, but  it is likely you will require the generally accepted stitched format for binding your publication. In addition to this we can offer perfect binding, section sewing, drilling, laminating and wirobinding.

In terms of printing we can offer full colour print by way of our 5 colour Heidelberg press along with spot colour and mono printing on our 2 colour Heidelberg Perfector press. While both presses run up to B2 (520mm x 720mm) sheets, the perfector can also print both sides of the sheet in one pass making its very efficient on publications with a high number of pages.

In addition to the traditional litho presses we can also offer a full digital printing service which proves very economical for smaller quantities. Digital print though perhaps not quite such high quality as the litho process it does offer an extremely economic option for shorter runs especially in colour.

Thanks to our in-house bindery the quality of the finishing is far superior to a lot of the ‘booklet makers’ used in high street copy shops
