Blind embossing
A die pressed into the cover under heat. No ink, nothing to wear off, and the finish most clients choose for leather.
Production
Six ways to apply a brand, and one factory that does all of them without sending work out.
Printing, foiling, cutting and binding all happen in one building.
Finishes
Foil stamping
Gold, silver, copper or a matched Pantone foil. Holds a clean edge down to small type.
Silk screen
Opaque colour on dark or textured covers, where foil would be too reflective.
UV print
Full-colour artwork, photographic detail, and raised spot gloss over flat colour.
Block customisation
Your own calendar, sections, dividers and endpapers printed into the block itself.
Material combination
Two materials on one cover, such as leather with cloth, or a contrast spine and corner.
Everything under one roof
Printing, foiling, cutting and binding all happen in one building. That is unusual in this trade, and it is the reason our lead times hold when a client moves a deadline forward.
It also means a sample can be corrected and re-made in days rather than weeks, because nothing has to leave the floor to be fixed.
Start with a sample
We produce a physical sample before anything goes to production, so you approve the real object rather than a rendering.
