Some Highlights from 2023

Over the last year K Print has had the opportunity to work with customers on a wide variety of print related projects. The following are some examples that give a good overview of the service we can offer.

 

Weldon’s Jewellery magazine 2023

Book Printing – Weldons Jewellers 2023 Catalogue

Book printing is a very specialist area requiring a high degree of accuracy and quality control to make sure every book produced is the same. This is especially so in the final finishing areas where the pages are sewn together into sections with fine thread, bound into blocks and then case bound with hard back covers and end papers. For the last three years we have produced a catalogue like this for Weldons of Clarendon Street – one of Dublin’s most prestigious jewellery stores. This year’s catalogue contained 144 pages, each one showcasing beautiful pieces of vintage jewellery.

Label Printing – Dubray Books Price Labels

Perhaps more than any other sector in printing you need to be very careful when it comes to choosing the correct material to print labels. This is because labels are used in so many different ways and if the wrong adhesive or finish is used costly consequences can follow. This year we supplied Dubray Books with all their price labels. We printed the labels using a removable adhesive which is perfect for sticking to books and supplied them on rolls that are easy to distribute to different stores.

 

Packaging – Small Change Box for The Society of Saint Vincent de Paul

Saint Vincent de Paul Christmas Jumper collection box

This year K Print were able to grow sales significantly in the packaging sector. One of the projects we were most pleased with was a small change box we supplied to The Society of Saint Vincent de Paul for their “Christmas Jumper Day” appeal. Our first step was to supply a keyline to fit the size of box they had in mind and then produce white unprinted samples to make sure the box worked as required. We were then supplied with artwork that allowed us to produce colour samples before finally printing the full order. The type of box produced was a “crash lock box” which packs flat and opens easily into a rigid box.

Gaiety School of Acting 2023 prospectus

Brochures – Gaiety School of Acting Brochure

Every year we print a wide variety of brochures for customers especially in the medical and educational sectors. This year we printed a range of brochures and prospectuses for The Gaiety School of Acting. Their 8-page Winter 2023 brochure used a very contemporary 300 gsm uncoated paper which has a nice tactile feel and had a gate fold which allowed the brochure to open flat making it easy to read the 4 inside pages together.

Docket Books – Hickey Home Focus Specification Books

Docket books are still widely used in some business sectors where there is a need to have duplicate or triplicate written copies of some documents like purchase orders and delivery notes. This year we supplied A4 Specification Docket Books to the Hickeys Home Focus stores. These are used in store to record the exact details of materials ordered by customers to make up things like curtain blinds. Each book has 50 3-part sets with perforations running along the top of the pages that makes it easy to remove the different copies.
