How do I order?
Ordering is easy, having identified the product or products you wish to purchase. Please then complete the "Add a Quote" button at the relevant product send this to us and we will forward the relevant prices, payment details, and estimated delivery date.
N.B. IF YOUR ORGANISATION REQUIRES YOU TO PROVIDE A PURCHASE ORDER IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO PROVIDE THIS BEFORE THE ORDER IS PROCESSED. ONLY PERSONS AUTHORISED TO PLACE ORDERS SHOULD DO SO.
Can you match my corporate colour exactly?
When printing promotional merchandise and corporate giveaways, we always endeavor to match your stated PMS pantone colour as closely as possible. However do note that variations can occur depending on the colour, texture, composition and surface of the promotional item being printed. On many promotional merchandise items, we can offer pre-production samples for your peace of mind. There is usually a charge for this, so just ask and we can provide a quote.
What is screen printing?
Screen printing: The most common method of personalising our product ranges. Each colour of your design is put onto an individual screen, i.e. a screen for each colour in your design.
A screen is a frame with a precision woven mesh stretched over it drum tight. The screen is coated with a photo-sensitive emulsion and your image is burned onto it with an ultra violet light. Screen printing inks are then placed into the frame and the ink is pushed through the burned image with a squeegee to replicate the design onto the product of your choice
What is engraving?
This type of marking process is produced by using a diamond type tool to mark/etch into the material to reproduce your design. This leaves a permanent design on the product.
What is foil blocking?
Foil blocking is referred to by many names: A few are embossing, gold blocking, blocking etc.
The print method is a combination of heat and pressure applied via a block or die onto a coloured foil, this is stamped onto the product.
This method of printing is used on leather goods, diaries etc. It is not usually suitable for multicolour printing or designs with very fine detail.
What is laser engraving?
Laser engraving can be used to decorate many substrates, but is mainly used on metals. It leaves a black/dark grey image on metal surfaces.
The process is that of the laser printing dots, very similar to the way your paper printer prints. With the ability to print highly detailed graphic images.
The finished product is a quality marking that captures good detail of the image you want reproduced
Embroidery is a method of stitching a design/logo onto clothing etc. Almost exclusively produced on computer controlled embroidery machines.
Firstly your design is "digitized" onto a computer disk or cd. This process converts your design into the relevant software language for the machine used and this then controls the stitching of the design and the colours onto the garment.
Please indicate if you have a preferred position that you would like the item marked. For example a folder you may want to have it printed bottom right hand corner or centered. If you have a preference please indicate or leave blank and we will print it in the most suitable position for your product and your design.
Origination is the set up of the equipment for the job; to produce the screen in the screen printing process or to produce the disk for embroidery, it is an industry standard charge.
All products include a one colour print unless otherwise stated. For additional print requirements please enquire.
All deliveries are subject to a 5% variance from specified amount (under or over). Exact quantities may be available for an additional charge.
The prices shown are exclusive of VAT, origination, carriage and artwork. If your requirements differ from those illustrated please enquire.
