We have a new item to add to our collection - chalkboard or blackboards. They are produced 3mm thick and we can screen print them. All we have to do now is find a good supplier of chalk.

We have recently developed an encapsulated place mat with a wipe clean surface.  The product is made from a coloured vinyl at the bottom, print in the middle and a clear vinyl welded over the top.  This does make a durable and good looking placemat, suitable for children and adults.

We can do screen printed and 4 colour process onto priplak for placemats.  To be honest the choice is endless.  Priplak or doeflex is available in a variety of colours and thicknesses.  There are your standard colours:  white, cream, blue, green, purple, green, yellow, red, blue, grey and black.  In addition to this are some really nice pearlescents and metallics.

Prikplak coasters can be screen printed onto some really great colours.  These plastic coasters would look great on any table or in any environment.Colours available are:  Cosmos white, cosmos blue (white with a harmonious hint of blue), cosmos red, cosmos green, cosmos purple, metal gold, metal grey, metal ochre, metal silver, metal red, metal gold, metal grey, tonic yellow which is almost flourescent, Tonic pink which is really very pink, tonic orange, tonic greet, metallic blue, metallic red, Bispace green, Bispace purple; there is also an aptly named sparkly range - galaxy, available in blue red, green, yellow, black, and clear, they do really look like a starry sky at night.

Our standard size for bottle collars is 150mm x 75mm. Die cut hole 39mm x 55mm onto a 185 rigid pvc. They can be made on other material and made to any size.

Magnetax is available in a sheild shape for those that need to fit a lot of information onto their promotional tax disc holders.

It can be printed both sides and would work well on small quantities.

It would also get over those horrible set up costs of litho printing.

Next time you stare at horror at some artwork that needs to go onto a 500 shield shape personalised tax disc holder - give us a ring.

Here’s an unusual situation. We’ve bought a badge making machine that makes fridge magnets; so they’re like a button badge but a magnet is attached to the back instead. Most people recognise these by the fact they have a folded over bit on the back a bit like an envelope - the thing is we have no idea what to call them. These are the fridge magnets in tourist shops, gift shops and museums and would make good promotional fridge magnets.

Bottle collars always seem to make us think about alcohol - we’ve tried to think of other uses such as sauce bottles or shampoo bottles but unfortunately we’re not to be distracted. So back to alcohol just so we can wax lycrical about this product. These bottle collars are made from plastic or card and go around bottlenecks to advertise your product. We suggest advertising “wine of the week” as the best way to use this, but we could settle for free holidays or free chocolate with this alcohol as being suitable alternatives.

We do make many other items that are not yet mentioned on our website. One of these is our environmentally friendly coasters made from a unique white faced rigid foam PVC with a black core and back, developed for use in the sign, screen print and graphic display market.

This durable coaster is made using approximately 90% recycled polymer. The fine matt white face is of virgin polymer, co-extruded with the black core and back of recycled polymer.

The benefits of this material are as follows.
