Just a little bit different...

Here at the Didsbury branch of printing.com, there is one factor that makes us just that little bit different from other printers and design agencies, and it is responsible for the consistently high quality work we produce.

Team work

Whilst our backgrounds are all slightly different – I have a degree and background in marketing, whilst Lucy is a trained graphic designer, with almost ten years experience between us we do work fantastically well as a team. This attribute really allows us to exchange and develop ideas on behalf of our clients, and we always aim to produce results which exceed expectations.

It’s also our philosophy to include you, our customer, as an integral part of our team. Without spending time with you, and exploring your ideas and goals, it’s impossible to produce a product that you will be left entirely happy with.

“It’s on time or it’s on us!”

As well as a guarantee of real quality in terms of our products, we also have a guaranteed delivery time. This means if we’re a day late beyond what we’ve promised, it’s completely free, to you, the customer.

Monthly special offers

Each month, here at printing.com, we always have a brilliant special offer – it’s always one of our most popular and best selling items at half price for the duration of the promotion. Check out this month's on the right.

The environment and us...

All our processes are constantly refined to ensure that we minimise waste. What waste we do produce, we separate into seventeen distinct streams for easy recycling or reprocessing. We compact all of our waste paper to minimise transportation, prior to being recycled. Our printing plates are recycled and our used chemicals are disposed of responsibly.

We use vegetable-based inks, pumped straight from large drums, rather than smaller cartridges in wasteful packaging. And talking of packaging, we’ve drastically reduced the volume of waste we pass onto you too. All of our cartons are produced from unbleached board.

This year we’re giving you even more choice to do your bit for the environment too. We’ve introduced many new products printed on 100% recycled paper – just look for our recycled logo when placing your order with us. Where possible, the rest of our paper stock is made from wood pulp which is Elemental Chlorine Free (ECF). All pulp is sourced from sustainable forests, where trees are farmed as crops – just like wheat.

50,000 tree appeal...

Planting trees is a great way for us to offset our carbon emissions. It’s also a great way for you to help the environment, with something as simple as choosing who prints your leaflets, business cards, flyers, folders or posters. Don’t just take our word for it – Professor David Bellamy says “I believe Tree Appeal is a very exciting initiative because it gives companies the opportunity to make a real difference. These broad-leaved trees make a significant long-term contribution to the environment.”

Here at the Didsbury branch of printing.com, we’re really proud to be contributing to such a cool cause, and being part of a wider team which already seen 50,000 trees planted!

So, for all your printing and design needs, drop in to see us – we’d love to do business with you!
