Print Processes_
Digital Print: High quality, affordable and great for full colour prints digital print is our most popular choice of print methods. We print both in house and with our trusted digital print experts to ensure your orders are of the highest quality.
Letterpress: A time honoured process whereby the ink is pressed into the card. Blind press is the same process however no ink is used to create a beautiful yet subtle impression.
We prefer to use a heavy 540gsm card stock to ensure the most beautiful impression.
Hot Foil: The same process as letterpress whereby a bespoke metal plate is made and used to create an impression in card. Letterpress uses ink whereas hot foiling uses foil, allowing for different effects such as metallics, holographic and high shine to be used.
Digital Foil: In some cases we can print metallics digitally on to card. Although more cost effective than hot foil there are some limitations; namely, the foil colours on offer and only smooth card stock can be used.
