LITHO & DIGITAL
INNOVATION is at the heart of everything we do. In 2020, we invested in state-of-the-art digital printing equipment, becoming the first company in Europe to install two Xerox Iridesse 8-colour digital presses! In addition to superlative quality, the addition of gold, silver, opaque white, high gloss clear, and flourescent pink inks enable endless design possibilities for creative designers and in-house marketing departments!
We are committed to EFFICIENT production of larger print volumes. Our modern two, four and five-colour litho presses offer fantastic productivity and quality on a huge range of paper stocks.
Effective COMMUNICATION throughout production helps us tailor solutions to any print challenges, supporting clients’ visions with options such as online ordering, available 365 days a year for enhanced convenience and personalization.
In 2022, Clarkeprint earned a Xerox Best of the Best Award for our “Less Waste, More Impact” mailer, underscoring our dedication to sustainability and innovation. This recognition not only celebrates our progressive ethos over four decades but also honours our staff’s innovative contributions.
WEB 2 PRINT
CENTRALISED fulfilment of your print requirements creates efficiency, cost savings and consistency of both product and service.
A TAILORED shopfront can be devised to match your branding, through which, users can order print collateral as and when required. All printed items and merchandise are delivered within service level agreements and the fully interactive solution allows you to manage both your brand and your spend.
EFFICIENCY is at the heart of our Web2Print solution, so if your organisation uses a range of marketing products, or has multiple locations with multiple users, you are likely to save time and money using the online platform. This solution is particularly beneficial to franchise-type operations, organisations with multiple sites and those with de-centralised teams.
WAREHOUSE AND DISTRIBUTION
We pride ourselves on being able to provide solutions for our customers, even when it’s not directly print related.
Being in a prime LOCATION, just off the M6, provides us with the accessibility needed to serve not just the West Midlands, but the rest of the UK too. This also means that we can receive and despatch goods around the country with efficiency.
Our TOP-TEAM prioritise safety and diligence, ensuring your items are treated with the utmost care, from storage through to delivery. This dedication guarantees that your products are in pristine condition upon their delivery.
ONLINE ON TIME! Coupled with our online print solution, the benefits of stock management are multiplied. Users, whether employees, customers or your retail/distribution network can call-off stock at the same time as ordering print-on-demand items. As well as maintaining the ability to access digital download resources, giving an efficient solution to a wide range of requirements.
ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY & SUSTAINABILITY
Clarkeprint prides itself on its pledge towards continually becoming as SUSTAINABLE as possible.
A few ways in which we do this include:
• Reducing waste, by minimising packaging/using recyclable materials.
• Using paper from sustainable sources, that are all FSC® accredited.
• Using printing plates that only use water in their processing, avoiding the use of harmful chemicals.
• Recycling plates and any superfluous ink.
• Sending all wastepaper that can be recycled for processing.
• Maximising electricity usage with the use of a capacitor.
• Utilising only electric or hybrid vehicles to make up our car fleet.
We are able to mitigate the CO2e generated by the production, storage and distribution of our products and services through carbon capture schemes. We’ve contributed towards raising over £1.83 million for The Woodland Trust, directly funding woodland conservation and the plantation of more than 480,000 trees.
PROMOTIONAL GOODS & CLOTHING
PERSONALISATION makes your merchandise memorable, so we’ve invested in the latest direct-to-film technology, providing us with the ability to transfer images onto a range of substrates. Including t-shirts, tote bags, notebooks, wallets and much more!
We can fulfil a huge range of items IN-HOUSE, across both our Birmingham based sites. This results in faster lead times and better control over quality, ensuring a hassle-free process for the customer in the hands of our dedicated professionals.
We’ve travelled the globe, so you don’t have to. Leading to the formation of valuable PARTNERSHIPS. We work collaboratively with some of the best suppliers, in order to obtain a range of items that the customer may require. Once again, alleviating tension during the procurement process.
POS & LARGE FORMAT
Making an IMPACT on a grand scale is a large part of what we do. Whether volume or on-demand, production of banners, exhibition graphics, posters and pop-ups is all in a day’s work for the team.
In addition to temporary graphics we also offer a custom FABRICATION service for plastic, metal, illuminated and post and panel signage systems. Our teams can fabricate, deliver and install throughout the UK.
IN-STORE point of sale campaigns take care and consideration to design, produce and distribute; whether ad-hoc, or long term and managed through our web portal we can make the process efficient and effective.
MAILING SOLUTIONS
Through CARE and DILIGENCE, we ensure your data is safe and secure, from the moment it is uploaded onto our online portal. We understand the importance of maintaining such a level of security not only for our customers, but for their customers too.
Working with a range of postage channels means that we can give customers the most COST-EFFECTIVE solutions, alleviating financial hassle.
In additional to distribution of letter mailings we also manage extensive FULFILMENT and distribution campaigns. Whether it’s a product launch, client and employee welcome packs or nationwide event distribution, we have the expertise, space and resource to take care of it.
LOOP 454
Our sister company Loop 454 provides full-service video and photo production. The team can transform ideas into captivating visual narratives.
SOCIAL MEDIA is a vital component of a larger marketing strategy for businesses. Whilst anyone can create and share videos on social media, there are several compelling benefits to using professional, tailored video content. Combined with the use of relevant tactics, it can gain a wider reach in terms of audience, and drive engagement. Overall, strengthening brand awareness.
EVENT CAPTURE can be used as a powerful tool to market future events. It can also be just as valuable for organisers, highlighting areas for improvement. Event videos are also a great way to share the experience with absentees, or even relive the occasion long after it has concluded.
While the visual format of CORPORATE videos may be changing, the power of storytelling remains ever-present. Narratives can evoke emotions, build connections, and leave a lasting impact on audiences. Crafting compelling stories, even within short-form videos, is highly likely to capture the attention and loyalty of viewers!
We welcome and encourage client visits to our sites in central Birmingham, as we feel it adds context and value to the relationships that we build with clients. If you would like to talk to the team about how we could work with you to smooth any bumps in your print and communications procurement, or to arrange a tour, we would love to hear from you.
