Accreditations & Certifications

Certifications

The importance of certification is recognised by Print By Post as it shows a commitment to the high standards we already set ourselves. Achieving these accreditation standards ensures all of our customers can have confidence when placing their digital printing or litho printing work with us.

As a business, Print By Post concentrates on three key areas; Environment, Colour and Quality. As a litho printing and digital printing company we know that by getting these right we will keep our customers satisfied and build longstanding and profitable relationships.

Quality

We have an ongoing commitment to quality and our parent company has held ISO 9001 since it began litho printing in 1997. It is an internationally recognised standard for quality management.

ISO 9001 enhances brand reputation and sends a clear message that we are committed to high standards and continual improvement.

Environment

The environment and our impact upon it is becoming an important issue around the world. Our parent company has achieved ISO 14001 as part of their plan to put an effective Environmental Management System (EMS) in place. Our policy document is available on request. Our parent company achieved FSC and PEFC accreditation early in 2008 and this is the natural progression for the business.

Colour

All our print meets ISO 12647, an international standard that sets out strict guidelines for reproducing colour throughout the reprographic and printing process. It uses spectrophotometric measurement to achieve consistent colour and improve the workflow from pre-press through to printing.

Our Heidelberg Speedmaster XL75 is calibrated and set to achieve ISO 12647 as standard.
