Printing

ink SMART to SELL smart

So, who invented printing?
German inventor Johannes Gutenberg created the printing press in 1439, and enabled books to be mass produced for the first time ever…
However, 500 years before that, Chinese monks dipping carved wooden blocks into ink and pressing them onto parchment to create text – and by the early 1400s, the Chinese were even carrying ‘business’ cards around with them!

Printing’s come a long way since then, and SmartWorks are proud leaders in the field: our litho set-up provides hugely cost-effective large-volume runs, and our digital presses offer up to 9-colour printing, with over 1.2 million pages a month coming off a single press.Our Iridesse Production Press adds more ‘wow’ to every page through digital speciality enhancements and Colour FLX Technology. You can add one or two Speciality Dry Ink stations in either White, Clear, Silver or Gold in addition to the standard 4 for CMYK; simulating a foiling & embossing OR UV Spot effect without the expense.

Whilst these print solutions are core to most of our clients’ businesses, we have the experience, expertise and technology to deliver whatever printing process you have in mind.
