The Print People

 

 

Plant List

Through our extensive experience in the Printing Industry, we have had to be able to keep ahead of the changing printing environments that have evolved over the years. This change has allowed us to deliver what the customers wants and needs are. The only way that this can be achieved is through our commitment to invest in the proper high-tech equipment needed for our continuing improvement in supplying the high end prints needed for today's customers.

CIP3 and CIP4

We currently use CIP3 technology on our 4 and 5 colour presses. This is the International Cooperation for the Integration of the Processes in Prepress and Press. This is a standard format for the electronic exchange of data throughout the life of each job. It basically allows information to be transferred from our prepress technology direct to press, saving time on make readies and reducing human error. The introduction of CIP4 expands the standard to incorporate post press.

Stochastic screening

This utilises a random dot pattern instead of the traditional line screening, thus improving quality and difficult to match colours and also improves results on inferior substrates. Reduced special ink colour requirements increases efficiency on press, due to the need for less wash ups, this therefore saves time and money.

Super-factory

We are currently searching for a site within the Glasgow area to house all of our Glasgow based companies. This will enable us to work more efficiently, improve lines of communication and logistics and will allow us to improve competitiveness in the future.
