Who we print for
A lot of businesses sell print without owning a large-format printer. Sign makers who cut vinyl lettering but don’t print full colour. Designers and agencies whose clients want a banner or a sign. Shops and resellers who sell stickers and labels. That’s who this is for.
We’re a working factory in Washington, Tyne & Wear, running a Roland eco-solvent printer/cutter. You ring the person who runs it, and you get straight answers on what’s possible.
Why buyers use us
- Published prices. You can cost a job before you ring us. No “price on application” for standard work.
- No VAT on top. We’re not VAT registered, so the price is the price.
- Stickers by the square metre. £30 per m² with a 1 m² minimum, so you can work out your cost per sticker and your margin in a minute.
- Files checked before they print. If something’s wrong, we tell you first.
- UK-wide post, or collection from Washington if you’re nearby.
Sticker runs for resellers
Stickers are priced on the vinyl a run uses: the stickers plus a small allowance for spacing and weeding. Each run is one design. We don’t mix lots of designs on one sheet, because the setup costs more than it saves. If you’re reselling, work out how many fit on a square metre, divide £30 by that number, and you have your cost per sticker. The calculator on our sticker printing page does it for you.
Regular work
If you’ve got regular jobs coming through, like monthly sticker runs, a steady stream of banners or signs for your own clients, ring us and we’ll talk about how to make it work for both of us. Local businesses ordering for themselves can become print partners.

Finishing
- Contour cutting
- Stickers are printed and cut on the same Roland printer/cutter, so the cut line sits where it should.
- Banner finishing
- Hemmed with eyelets in every corner and roughly every 500mm. Pole pockets on request, including for scaffold tube.
- Lamination
- Included on ACM signs. For stickers that will be handled a lot or live outside, ask for it when you order.

Trade printing: common questions
Do you print for other businesses to resell?
Yes. Sign makers, designers, agencies and print resellers send us work they don’t print themselves: stickers by the square metre, banners, posters and ACM signs. Ring us to talk about regular work.
Can I mix designs on one square metre of stickers?
No. Each sticker run is one design. Mixing lots of designs on one sheet takes more setup than it’s worth, so each design is priced as its own run, with a 1 m² minimum.
Do you charge VAT?
No. We’re not VAT registered, so the prices on this site are the full price with nothing added. That makes costing and reselling simple.
Can you post to anywhere in the UK?
Yes. Or collect from our factory in Washington if you’re local.
What files do you want?
Vector PDF, AI, EPS or SVG for stickers and signs, set up at size. If you haven’t got one, send what you have and we’ll tell you if it will print and cut cleanly. We check every file before it goes on the printer.
How long does trade work take?
Currently 3 to 5 working days from artwork approval. If you need it within 24 hours, rush jobs are an extra 25%, as long as the queue allows. Ring first and we’ll tell you straight.
