Print and production management

Ink on paper, it is the mainstay of a graphic design groups workload, or, at least, it used to be before we stuck an 'e' before everything. Stationery, leaflets, flyers, brochures, reports, direct marketing, swing tickets and button badges are all part of our design for print service.

Where Navig8 excels in print management, is our vast knowledge and experience of the process, buying power, prepress management and finishing. As soon as we receive a brief and start conceptualising designs, we think about the best, most cost effective way of printing the item. A simple decision about size and paper weight can save 100's and deliver a better job. If we told you how, we'd be out of a job.

Navig8 is not a print company, we don't own printing machines. We do have a few preferred suppliers, companies and individuals whom we have worked with for years (some more than ten years). We know the specialist companies that will foil block your logo on an invitation, print ten personalised copies or outsource to Hong Kong to print the 50,000 full colour perfect bound reports. We can look after the whole process, from artwork, prepress, proofing, passing on press and of course, delivery.

Our local hairdresser has loyalty and business cards (we combined the two items to save money and make customers refer new customers whilst earning 'points'), we look after her print for her. The British Council commissioned us to design and print their annual report, 104 pages plus an 8pp page, double throw-out, perfect bound, full colour, delicious report.

If you're looking to supply artwork to us to get it printed, well, we don't do that. We do however, offer print buying and management as part of our design service. It takes the hassle away from the client. We make sure it gets done properly, quickly and for the right price.

Navig8 ensures printed material is robust, printed beautifully, highly competitive (if not cheaper) and delivered on time. Which makes a change doesn't it.
