ABOUT

The Loveurope and Partners (LEAP) print and promotions team specialise in the on-demand printing of fine art quality postcards and postcard books.

Using their state-of-the-art HP Indigo printing equipment allows them to produce high-quality postcards and books at any quantity, from 10 to 100,000+, on a range of sturdy stock. This enables LEAP to produce all quantities at competitive prices. The print project managers supply their clients with templates to customise their designs and allow for single or double-sided printing.

The postcard books that they print are joined with secure binding, so they still allow for the separation of individual postcards. Clients appreciate the easy ordering process and flexibility on quantity which facilitates ad hoc call-off orders to match the popularity of the sales of printed exhibition souvenirs.

The LEAP portfolio of work for leading cultural institutions demonstrates their exceptional level of quality and service. For nearly a decade, LEAP have been printing exhibition postcards for sale in Tate galleries across the UK. All cards for Tate are digitally printed onto bespoke postcard boards. This allows for fine colour correction and emphasis on detail as well as ease of use for visitors to write messages.

LEAP employ colour experts who take great care to ensure that prints match artworks. This was of particular importance for the Royal Academy of Arts Age of Bronze exhibition which included works spanning 5,000 years. To provide additional quality assurance, LEAP printed the proofs onto stock for accurate reproduction and 100% repeatability.

LEAP are also a long-time supplier of promotional postcards for the Royal College of Arts Show. The project has grown year-on-year, and in 2018 they printed 200 copies of 730 designs for an impressive total of 146,000 postcards. Other esteemed clients include Sir John Soane’s Museum and Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh.
