Busy Week for Printing

We have had one of our busiest weeks in quite some time with lots of walk in work mostly printed digitally for clients while they wait. The type of work over the door ranges from PowerPoint documents to large format posters. We also printed PUR bound booklets for a local art gallery this takes slightly longer but we still produced 400 booklets within 3 days. We have seen an increase in traditional offset printed work we are presently printing a series of brochures for Google. Keep it coming!

Client References

A client sent an email to say:
"Thanks Darren – and thanks to Kopykat for their excellent support in an amazingly tight timescale.

I would like to say that Aaron did a spectacular job for us. Please thank him so much

The finished document has exceeded our expectations"

The above was for a booklet that designed and printed digitally within 2 days. 

When we checked to see if another brochure had reached its destination in Liverpool a client commented:

"Yes they did and they look fantastic. Have been pressed into service immediately. Bacon saved once again!"

The above was for 4000 20pp brochures printed within 3 days.

FSC Audit

Today we had a visit from the Forest Stewardship Council to check everything was in order with our recent annual audit, so basically our auditor was being audited. We are pleased to say that our auditor and Kopykat received a clean bill of health. What does it mean to you the client? It means we can use the FSC logo on your printed work when an FSC paper is chosen, showing your commitment to the environment. The journey of the  paper product can be shown from forest to the end user through 'Chain of Custody'.

Work Experience Student joins Kopykat

Emily Duncan a pupil at Ilford Ursuline School in Ilford has spent the last two weeks at Kopykat learning about the print industry, Emily has done really well and fortunately for us arrived at a particularly busy time so has been a real help in meeting many of the client deadlines we have had over the last couple of weeks, we would love her to stay but unfortunately she has to be back at school next week.

Well done Emily.

Architectural booklets

We have just printed a booklet digitally for an archictectural client that displayed the range of projects around the world that they had created and worked on, we printed 200 copies of 79 pages in full colour and used a PUR perfect bound finish, the client was delighted with the finished product and how quickly it was produced, this type of job can be produced relatively inexpensively nowadays as printing plates are not required and printing can commence often within hours.

Arrividerci Roma - The Eternal City

Visited Rome last week and forgot how fantastic it was, the last time I went was 1977 for the small matter of the European Cup final involving Liverpool FC, visited all the major sights and hardly any queues due to it being February, the weather was good as well, very spring like, if you do visit avoid the summer months when it is unbearably hot in the cities, we even found a really nice reasonably priced restaurant near the Trevi Fountain called Al Picchio http://www.ristorantealpicchio.it/index.php one of the best pizzas I've had for a while.
