About us

Longridge print

Longridge Print was established in 1969

The philosophy of the company is to invest in the best people and plant to give the best quality and service. It is this philosophy that has led to Longridge Print having one of the most modern factories producing some of the country's highest quality print, with repro, print and finishing all under one roof.

Over the years Longridge Print has worked closely with all its customers to push the boundaries of the printing process, and it is this that has led us to develop the ability to produce commercial work in High Definition Printing and Color Logic.

Over 45 years in the making.

Higher definition.

Bigger impact.

CERTAIN PRINTED ARTIFACTS REQUIRE A little extra sharpness. Take Frank for example; his minute hairs, fine degree of tonal differentiation and precise wrinkles require a crisp print to do his good looks justice. At Longridge we wanted to create a high resolution print that would do pattern and texture justice from Frank's leathery skin to detailed wood grains.

For the past ten years, Longridge have been refining their own screening process, and are now able to provide a finish more than twice as fine as the industry standard of 175 screen ruling. Want to see it in action? Simply contact us for samples.

So what do you need to do? Well, nothing, apart from say yes. That's it. At Longridge we'll do the rest. There are no additional cost implications to use our Print HD service, just ask us where and how its use can be most effective.

We wanted to give our customers the option to achieve higher definition imagery than was previously possible. We achieved this aim with the introduction of High Definition Printing.

From one to many:

digital choice.

WELCOME TO THE NEW BREED.

Digital print of yesteryear provided poor quality, bad tonal colours, and limited stock options. But today, things are different. And that's where Longridge come in. As part of our dedication to superior quality print and extended client choice, we invested in state of the art digital technology to complement our lithographic offering.

Digital technology can now provide high quality print on lithography grade paper, from high gloss to uncoated. And there's more, oh yes, much more... Digital print allows for 24-hour, on-demand printing. Just remembered that there is a client conference the day after tomorrow? Longridge can help. Times have changed, and with the quality now on offer, why wait?

Want to digitally print on any litho stock? Retain a finish that is dots per inch almost irresistibly lithographic? Want to keep all your finishing options and choice from litho, but print for short, time-sensitive runs?

Shout it loud,

metallics are here

COLOUR-LOGIC, OR AS WE LIKE TO CALL it, Metallics, is available for the first time in the UK and we are proud to be certified to debut it to you.

So what is this intriguing advance in metallic technology? Well, until recently, printing metallic spot inks alongside your standard cmyk was pricey, and a bit hit and miss. That was then. Now, with one additional spot plate we are able to consistently print upwards of 250 metallic colours on any one print run.

This clever bit of technology adds a wealth of metallic choice to your projects at a fraction of the previous cost. The option to now include metallic colours that can add depth and vibrancy consistently across print collateral, packaging, labels, banners and more, is just another benefit of working with Longridge.

Integrated into our offset lithographic process, the Colour-Logic system can provide dramatic results to print that can benefit any designer, brand manager or advertising guru.
