Park Lane are shortlisted for Two PrintWeek Awards 2016

We’re very excited to announce that we’ve been shortlisted for not one but TWO quality awards for the PrintWeek Magazine !!

This is after our recent win at the Whitmar Awards for Best Annual Report, and it’s a reflection on how far we have progressed lately. In our 25 years of trading we have never printed better!

Park Lane Press have been working very hard to take our “waterless printing” to a new quality level. Improvements include:-
• Higher screen rulings up to 300 lines per inch
• Improvements in our Reprographics department to make the reproduction of images supplied by clients closer to the originals than ever before.
• This is being demonstrated in our printing every day and is our usual standard if the images permit.
• all jobs are printed to the highest levels of quality we can reach, with no extra cost.
It’s fantastic that we’ve been nominated in both the “Brochure Printer” and “Report & Accounts” categories. The Awards take place on October 17th, and our fingers and toes are crossed!!
Here is a testimonial from a very happy customer Emile Holba. He found great value in our consultative approach and final output.

Wow!! I am extremely happy with the final book, which I received a few hours ago.
I am so pleased that I made the decision to come down and get to the bottom of the colour profile / correction issue. I’m also very happy you all made me so welcome and offered nothing short of outstanding service throughout my 2 days loitering around your building. Such levels of personable service and understanding is a rare these days.
Please can one of you extend my warmest thanks to the two interstellar Jedis of printing – Andy & Chris – as their patience and understanding was, again, outstanding and it was a pleasure to learn from them both.

Park Lane Achieve Print Quality Award

On the 30th June 2016 I attended the Whitmar Publications ‘Print, Design & Marketing Awards 2016’ held aboard the Silver Sturgeon on the River Thames. Park Lane were nominated for best website www.parklanepress.co.uk, created by one of our clients Lionhouse Creative.

The second nomination was for the Report and Accounts category, which we won.  The judges said: An outstanding piece of print that is clear, precise and full of colour. Excellent finishing and binding combined with exceptional quality.

The award was for the production of the Greenergy Annual Report designed by MrB and Friends. We are especially pleased as it was produced on an uncoated stock, and printed waterless in 6 colours with PUR binding.  The 132 page A4 portrait report used no fancy papers, or extra embellishments.

This kind of job is typical of what goes through Park Lane Press on a weekly basis, simple jobs can look amazing when done well.  For us I think it is (like a good decorator will tell you) all in the preparation.  A careful analysis of every job to ensure the paper, job design and finishing choices match the expectations of the client, this is key.

25 Years of Innovation

Park Lane were one of the first printers in the UK to offer waterless printing. Motivated by finding new and better ways of doing things, we gleaned the knowledge we needed to introduce the waterless process from contacts all over the world for the equipment to build our initial press. This passion for innovation and knowledge continues to drive us, recently taking us to Italy to help investigate and test a new printing solution not yet on the market.
