All the hard work that goes into a perfect print job can be easily destroyed by sub standard print finishing. An off-centre fold or ragged edge stands out like a sore thumb, and we endeavour to avoid this in our work here at Washington Direct Mail. Our print finishing department has a meticulous eye for detail, and if we’re not proud of our work it doesn’t leave the building. We’re always looking to expand on the services we offer in house in order to continuously improve quality and reduce lead times.

What Makes Us Different
The Right Tools
We consider every investment in machinery carefully. We always choose a respected manufacturer in their field, and we choose a machine capable of greater volumes than we currently produce. This means our plant isn’t overworked and we have capacity for increased volumes or urgent jobs.
Fast Turnaround
It’s a running joke in the print finishing department “Is the client waiting in the carpark?”, and often it is true when a job is required immediately. But we don’t mind — we love to jump on an urgent job and pull out all the stops to impress a client.
