Print, Catalogues & Direct Mail for Nottingham
Nottingham organisations range from retailers and manufacturers to universities and charities, and their print needs are just as varied. Fretwell makes catalogues, brochures, packaging and direct mail at our factory in Keighley, West Yorkshire, and delivers or mails the finished work to wherever it is needed.
We are not based in Nottingham. Our value is having litho and digital print, binding, finishing and mailing at one site, so the person you brief is working with the teams who actually produce the job.
Publications people keep and use
A product catalogue, a course guide or an annual review is likely to be handled many times. Binding and paper choices affect how well it lasts and how easily it opens flat. We offer saddle stitching and PUR perfect binding in-house, along with lamination for covers that need protecting, and can advise on stock weights that balance feel against postage cost.
Our Heidelberg Speedmaster XL 75 suits longer litho runs with stable content, while our digital presses handle shorter runs and versioned editions. If a publication is updated each season or each academic year, we can discuss which pages change and how to keep reprints simple.
Retail, education and community audiences
A retail brand may need a seasonal catalogue or a loyalty mailer; a university department may need prospectuses, event programmes or alumni mailings; a charity may need a supporter appeal. These audiences read print differently, so we start with who receives the piece and how, before settling format and finish.
For addressed work, our data-processing team cleans and formats the list, our Buhrs lines enclose the packs, and eligible mail is sorted for Royal Mail Mailmark. We hold ISO 27001 for information security alongside ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, which helps when an institution’s procurement process asks how personal data is handled.
