ABOUT US

Inky is a modern commercial printer based just outside of the city of Gloucester.

We are certified to the international ISO9001:2000 Quality Standard.

Inky Little Fingers Ltd has been certified to ISO9001:2000 for the following scope: "the production and supply of lithographically and digitally printed materials to customer designs/customer approved designs." Certification is subject to periodic surveillance and re-assessment. For further information regarding the validity of the certification please contact Print and Media Certification Ltd on info@printcertification.co.uk

We print small format products on a computer controlled full colour landscape lithographic printing press and on Xerox Docucolor digital presses. Large Format products are printed on Hewlett Packard equipment. On a good day we can produce about 2 tonnes of high quality full colour printed material.

Any feedback and suggestions on how we can improve our on-line service would be really appreciated.

Inky & the environment

Like the vast majority of UK printers, we take our responsibilities to our employees and to the environment very seriously:

• solvents - installing new technology has reduced the use of solvents down to a tiny level.
• inks - we made the switch to high quality vegetable oil based inks in 2005.
• paper - over 98% of the paper we use is now FSC approved. There are a few speciality papers that are not yet FSC approved and we are updating the site to clearly show paper specific environmental information. We also offer excellent recycled paper options for business stationery and promotional print.
• recycling - all waste paper is collected and recycled by a local contractor.
• waste disposal - all of the "non office" waste that we create is collected and processed by a government approved & registered waste processing company. Sadly for them, this is now a rare occurrence as automation and new technology has significantly reduced the amount created.

We're nothing special, all responsible UK printers will have similar processes, but we thought that you might want to know the above!
