Our doors are open Mon-Fri for print consultations, design meetings, to view samples/proofs, or to simply collect your order. However, if you're interested in the machinery and processes we have in-store, we've detailed our main machines below.


We are always keen to discuss print technology to anyone who shows an interest, particularly when our knowledge can help you get the most out of our machines and your order. If, like some of us, you enjoy 'geeking out' over tech, please indulge in the details below!


 

If you need help setting a print file up for one of our specific machines or processes, please do get in touch - we'll be more than happy to help.
