Print Services

Can you imagine a world without print? We can’t!  Print has a proven track record.  The printed word captures the imagination like no other form of communication, and through it’s evolution it continues to impress on the buying market in a more meaningful way than its electronic counterpart is yet to do. Print is trusted in a way digital media finds hard to match – you can’t underestimate the brand value of print to inform, sell and build brands.

Print offers quality, flexibility, diversity, creativity, robustness, and that extra tactile and sensory benefit.  How a product feels, the gruffness or silkiness of stock, different finishes with coatings and varnishes, effects that appeal to the eye such as embossing, debossing, the shine and sparkle of metallic finishing techniques – these cannot be reproduced online, only with print.  That’s why we love it!

If you don't have the time, resource or capacity to organise your print campaign, we offer our clients a Print Management service where we can easily take on the role of managing the production of your printed material for you.

Print Certifications

ISO 9001 – Quality Management Standard

ISO 9001 is the internationally recognised standard for the quality management of businesses.  It ensures that the needs of both customers and employees are met, resulting in satisfied customers and a content workforce. As holders of ISO 9001 Orchard Press (Cheltenham) Ltd is committed to high standards and will seek continual improvement.

ISO 12647 – 2 – Colour Reproduction Standard

The ISO 12647 – 2 standard we are working to has been created as an international standard that sets a series of tight guidelines for reproducing colour across the reprographic and printing workflow. It’s a peg in the ground for colour consistency. The specification has targets and measurement settings for every process including different paper types and tackles the differences in printing with different inks, as they all have differing properties.  The result is an improvement in colour consistency, and less waste as digital information, proofs, and printing are all brought together.

Our printing credentials also extend to FSC, PEFC and ISO 14001 environmental certifications.
