Offset Printing for Large Runs and Exact Color

Digital and offset printing can make the same brochure. Our offset printing services are the right call when you need thousands of the same piece, the lowest cost per piece, or a brand color that has to match an exact Pantone ink every time. It prints with plates and real ink on press, so the five-thousandth copy looks like the first. You send the document, the quantity and the date. We pick the press and paper that suit the job, show you a proof first, and see it through until it ships. Offset printing, also called offset lithography, is the most cost effective printing method for high volume print runs such as catalogs, brochures and books. It also gives the best color accuracy when you need an exact Pantone match. Offset is the right commercial printing choice for long print runs; for short runs we'll point you to digital printing, and for shirts and bags, screen printing. Offset works by transferring ink from print plates to a rubber blanket and then onto paper, so setup costs are higher, but each piece costs less in large quantities.

When color is the whole point, like a brand red on a catalog cover or a Pantone blue on letterhead, we can arrange a press check so you see sheets coming off the press before the full run. Not sure offset is right for your job? Send us the quantity, and we will tell you if digital would cost less.
