introducing starmaque # 01/05/08
StarMarque is our brand name for Spot UV varnish. This month we're launching StarMarque Business Cards and Showcards. These are effectively the same as our Luxury Business Cards and Showcards with an additional Spot UV gloss varnish applied to the front.

The result is a thick, sexy card with subtle highlights which can be used to accent your design.

Use StarMarque to emphasise a particular part of your design or treat it as a 'fifth' colour and go crazy !!!

StarMarque Business Cards are included in May's Offer of the Month - business cards are 'Buy One, Get One FREE'.

You can find more details of the StarMarque Showcards here.

Call us on 0161 833 2734, or email us to request more info or some samples.

trees for schools # 01/03/08
We want to encourage local schools to make the most of their grounds by planting trees. This helps create woodland habitat, increases bio-diversity and, most importantly, provides an excellent learning resource – planting trees, watching them grow, seeing how wildlife is encouraged and charting the changing seasons and weather.

We need your help… Our partners Tree Appeal will plant a tree for every 8 orders we receive. You can make a difference by choosing us for your leaflets, stationery, posters and other printing and telling your friends about our Trees For Schools campaign and nominating your school.

To nominate your local school, visit www.printing.com/schools and fill in the short nomination form. We’ll be selecting based on the number of nominations we get for each school, so why not get parents involved to increase your chances?

Professor David Bellamy will also be turning up with the Tree Appeal planting team at five lucky schools throughout the year. Will it be your school?

NEW!  Launched now, read on to find out more...

Getting yourself a web presence is easier than ever. We’ve developed technology which lets us build websites quickly. This means your website will cost less than it might from a traditional web designer.

Everyone knows, old news is bad news. That's why you get access to Update Centre with your website. With the same skills you need to type a letter, you can update your website’s content whenever you want, free of charge.

We’ve taken the pain out of getting your own website online. Just follow our simple steps and you’ll be up and running in no time. And we promise we won’t be filling your head with mindless jargon – promoting your business is hard enough without having to learn new lingo. We’ll keep things nice and simple. We prefer it that way.

Our website prices start from £99. As with all design we can make your website as simple or as complex as you require. To find out more take a look at websites by printing.com, download our Websites Buying Guide, pop in for a chat, call us on 0161 833 2734, or email us to request more info.

This website is  an example  of a web brochure with additional linked pages

we've planted 25,000 trees#01/03/08
It's official, printing.com have achieved their goal and have planted 25,000 trees! And we've set a new goal already, now you can help us to plant 50,000 trees!  Check out our planting process on our tree-o-metre.

So, a big 'pat on the back' goes out to everyone who has ordered print from us in the last year, as you've directly contributed to the cause. As a Manchester Central customer you have helped printing.com to plant lots and lots of trees ...well done!

25,000 broad leaf trees have been planted by Professor David Bellamy and The Tree Appeal on our behalf around Great Britain. As i'm sure you're aware we take green issues very seriously at printing.com, working with The Tree Appeal has enabled us to make a positive contribution to natural woodland habitats, both locally and nationally. In addition, trees absorb atmostpheric carbon, helping to reduce our carbon footprint.

We are proud that we have made a long-term contribution to the environment. By choosing us as your print partner you have too, so we hope you're proud of yourselves as well.

Don't forget you can show your support by adding The Tree Appeal imprint to your artwork...just ask!
