Just to remind you on this rainy spring day, that we can do posters, leaflets/flyers , maps, business cards, menus anything you need to be waterproof we can print!!
We have two thicknesses of paper 170 and 350 gsm and can go up to A3 print size.
We have a special offer on our check out of 4 x A3 350gsm Posters for £20 plus vat.
If you order these we will send you a template for your design and dispatch the posters to you , with your order.
You can of course order waterproof print as a stand alone product, and if you need to do this just email Una :
una@duplicationcentre.co.uk
Most importantly the waterproof paper works …….you can’t rip , crease or destroy it water / rain so it provides a very eco-friendly product and can be used again and again.

We are very keen to promote all our card products and are always trying to find ways of recycling wherever we can.
Our industry was traditionally very plastic orientated but over the years we have moved to create our own bespoke card products, having die cut templates made with UK printers in order to produce really high quality packaging for your CDs and DVDs . I think this is key, we haven’t brought in card products that are in any way inferior to the traditional plastic options.
Our card is responsibily sourced and FSC Certified as sustainable….and very high GSM…so the single card wallets, the lancing packs and double card wallets are all 350 gsm…lovely and thick and professional to the touch and print, as well as being very protective for your discs. They are all silk finish.

Revive Innovations are a start up company in Bristol .
They produce a new signature material called RE-CD which uses our waste discs to produce a new beautiful & robust material.
This is then manufactured using common workshop tools and processes into peices of furniture, jewellery and many other products. Production has low emissions and products are repairable and reprocessable.
The finish on products is sanded and polished to either a matt or gloss finish.
It is made from 100% recycled discs whether they are Cds, Dvds or Blu-Ray.
The physical properties of RE-CD is durable, hardwearing and temperature resistant.
The end product is a unique sustainable composite material.
Have a look …what they are doing there is amazing!

We are delighted, in fact over the moon, to partner with Revive Innovations to recycle our waste discs.
For a long time we have struggled to find a viable long term way of recycling discs.
We build up unwanted discs when, for example a machine does a “bad” print or our burners reject a disc.
Over time these mount up and apart from a few small projects, we have never found anywhere to recycle these on a longterm basis.
More news next week on Revive Innovations and the new life breathed in to our rejected discs.

Chatting to a customer yesterday made me think about how much we are able to recycle and be eco-friendly, even in our industry which has traditionally been very plastic orientated.
We have promoted all our Eco-friendly products for some years and we only use FSC Certified and Sustainable Card and Paper.
In addition to that we recycle all incoming supplies boxes and use them to double box and protect our outgoing orders.
Our general ethos is to try to recycle anything we can …from bubble bags, & boxes to over-run discs / spoiled discs.
All of this makes sense to protect our environment and makes great business sense too .
Let me know if you have any other ideas that we can adopt ,which maybe i havent thought of !

We have massively decreased the price of all our card products for two reasons:
To give you a boost to buy in your merchandise to sell at your gigs; it will make your money go a bit further!
To promote the use of eco-friendly card products in our industry, which is historically very plastic orientated.
The price drop includes single card wallets, double card wallets, lancing packs and digipaks.

We are proud to say that among our customers we have the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds who use our waterproof books in their bird hides and pond dipping areas where wipeable paper is essential.
