One of the fun things about keeping the blog updated is that I get to browse through all of the great eco printing we have been doing.  Leaflet printing on 100% recycled paper is always one of my favourites - it is always interesting to see how people have used the characteristics of the material to enhance their design.  This leaflet printing on 120gsm Revive makes full use of the fact that colours print softer - and such lovely illustrations.  Our leaflet printing on recycled paper starts at only £75 - and you can buy 5000 A6 leaflets from £85!Why are you waiting?!

We've just done this flyer printing for a very well known London cathedral (!).  Printed on 100% recycled board this folded flyer is used as a marketing tool to publish the key dates for the Easter calendar.  

Our flyer printing is done using vegetable oil based inks and is printed on alcohol free presses.  This lovely photograph is really inviting and shows this wonderful building off to its full glory.  Magnificent.

Greeting Card Printing - something that always piques my interest. As you can imagine we print hundreds of jobs each week and whilst I don't get to see all of them I do like to keep an eye on the greeting card printing we do. It is always so diverse and really interesting to see all the different designs and styles. The picture shows a range of cards from a series of 12 that we printed.  By opting for digital printing on our new Xerox DC8080 this customer took advantage of having more than one design for her greeting card printing.  All very cool and groovy!

A fine example of eco leaflet printing!  A rather nice 6 page DL leaflet printed on 120gsm Revive 100% recycled with vegetable oil based inks.  The design for this leaflet printing has taken consideration of the fact that the recycled paper works particularly well with muted tones and colours and this has been reflected in the design.  Leaflet Printing from ALP starts at £75 for 1000 - at this price it would be criminal not to order some!

Ahh, look at these little guys!  Bespoke printed greeting cards on 350gsm uncoated Revive, which is 100% recycled and FSC certified.  Using eco friendly vegetable oil based inks these printed greeting cards demonstrate how well vibrant images can be reproduced on uncoated materials.  Using simple design and colours these printed greeting cards are as cute as can be :)

This lovely greeting card printing was done on our digital press - ideal for short runs and multiple designs.  These were printed on 100% recycled uncoated board and because the print is done using toners the colour has not been affected in any way (unlike litho which generally prints darker on uncoated boards).We offer greeting card printing on coated (silk or gloss) boards and on uncoated boards, whichever is your preference.  All of our greeting card printing is on FSC certified materials from sustainable sources and the FSC logo can be included on your card if you fancy.

To cheer us up I found these lovely fresh flower images that were used for this flyer printing run.  I rather liked how the colours complemented each other in this montage photo we took. Printed on 100% recycled FSC board this flyer printing was used to promote cut flowers, Easter church services and art in Lincoln. Flyer printing is without a doubt one of the easiest and quickest ways to promote your products and services. The flyers in this picture show how a simple photograph and graphic text can create really stunning printed flyers.  The A7 Long flyers (pink ones!) start at only £92 for 1000, which is for double sided full colour printing and includes delivery. Can't go wrong really.

OK I give in.  This is the one and only bespoke printed Christmas Card that I will put on the blog - until next Christmas!  I just like this card - very simple design, a bit fun and corny but very effective on that lovely lime green board.  Out of all the cards we receive and print, something like this really stands out.  If you have any bespoke printing requirements you can get in touch with us using the 'contact us' button at the top of every page, or email us using info@alocalprinter.com.
