Lightweight paper printing

At Cambridge we print by the precision sheet-fed method on the lightest-weight papers to a minimum weight of 22gsm/14lb. We operate state-of-the-art Akiyama, high-speed, presses that are ideal for short- to medium-run productions and print truly black.
We are also able to print in full colour down to 28gsm/16lb. Our complementary folding machines deliver sharply folded sections and give accurate back-up, resulting in less show-through. Sheet-fed production also allows printing and folding in the correct grain direction of the paper minimising unsightly rippling effects.
“We are the only printer in the world able to produce such high quality, sheet-fed, on stocks as low as 22gsm.”
