So the Director of Complete Colour Printing came around to our office today to talk about the services they provide for their clients, the printing quality of the papers they source from their paper merchants, and the ink they use. Also to talk to us about sustainability and the move towards sustainable products Melbourne wants to head into in the future.
Thing is, although we are interested in the paper and ink and of course the effect on our land, we know that our clients may or may not want that particular type of printing. None the less, they offer percentages on how much recycled paper they use. The more higher the percentage the more expensive the cost is to print. Funny how that works out hey…
He let us look at some sample print stock they produced and the quality of printing. i have to admit it looked pretty. which is what we want. But we’ve decided to look into printing sustainable designs more. As this is what we want to be able to achieve with our business. We want to offer our clients sustainable options.
At the end of our discussion, he had mentioned to us the other services they want to be able to provide their clients in the future. There wasn’t much to be honest, but then again, I don’t really expect much more from a printer other than ink and paper. But he mentioned e-catalogues. so i don’t really understand what he was saying but, we’ll see…
At the very end of his talk, he offered us free business card printing to start us of. Thought that was really nice of him.
