Questions about working with us
The Printed Item is a print sourcing and management business. Here's what that means for you.
Does The Printed Item print products itself?
No. The Printed Item is a print sourcing and management business. We work with trusted third-party production partners and help you choose suitable formats, materials and finishes, then provide a tailored quotation.
Can I order printing online?
Not at the moment. Every project is quoted individually. Tell us what you need through our quote form and we'll come back to you with a tailored quotation.
What information do I need for a printing quote?
The product, approximate quantity, size, any paper or finish preferences, a delivery postcode and when you need it. If you're unsure about specifications, describe what the print is for and we'll help.
Can you help with unusual or bespoke print?
Yes. If your project doesn't fit a standard product — an unusual format, a specialist finish or a larger commercial job — describe it in the quote form and we'll look at suitable options.
Where do you deliver?
