Pre-Press, Litho Printing, Digital Printing, Finishing


  How we do it

Our factory is modern and large. We’ve always invested in the very best people who operate the most up-to-date
equipment on a 24 hour shift system.
All manufacturing operations from receipt of digital files to delivery are performed under one roof.

New acquisitions include the latest Apogee Prepress PDF workflow with ultra sharp Sublima screening
technology, digital OCÉ presses, the latest Heidelberg 5-Colour CD litho presses and Muller wire stitching line.
This adds to an already formidable array of printing and finishing equipment.
