Hello from sunny Uxbridge, London.

We have been successfully operating here for a number of years now, so let us enlighten you.

There were a few key features in our decision to locate our specialist print hub in this upcoming West London location.

And let's start with just that, location.

Large Format Printers in Uxbridge

Uxbridge is a great place to be in terms of logistics and distribution. It is in close proximately to Heathrow for our international deliveries. It is on the outskirts of London, Zone 6, giving us access to the rest of the country easily. And, it is only 45 minutes into Central London via road or train. This means we can deliver graphics efficiently to our other Central London studio in W1 the main headquarters, and print studio. And, our account managers can jump between locations when briefing large print orders for our customers. Several aspects become easier, like proofing prints, showing customers the company's production capabilities, or visiting West London clients.

The Uxbridge location also meant we get more space for our money. We were able to have a brand new, high spec, large square foot unit perfect for the print and production equipment we need. This planning meant we were also able to invest in top-of-the-range printers and cutters. In fact, not only does our print equipment produce excellent quality work, but it also helps us run and maintain a more cost-effective print production department. The unit size and layout give us space to bulk order materials now we have enough storage to manage material deliveries. This allows The Graphical Tree to keep costs down for customers and have enough substrates in stock for last-minute or large customer orders.

Sustainable Printing

Other key features are the environmental and sustainability factors in printing. As far as we could see, nowhere in Central London has access to solar panels on their roof as a way of contributing to a building's own on-site energy. It's a resource we have at our Uxbridge site, with our very own solar panels feeding into our energy supply. As a consequence of choosing Uxbridge for our second production site, we were able to allocate a huge chunk of the investment budget into the purchasing of environmentally friendly print machinery. This allows us to march forward in our mission to offer and support eco and sustainable print for the large format industry and our customers.

So what do we offer in our Uxbridge print studio?

The unit was set up to be the main print and production unit for The Graphical Tree. Our accumulative experience and knowledge culminated in setting up a facility that would cater to all the different work we are asked to produce by customers. As follows, here is a description of some of our print services:

In turn, enhance our position as true specialists in large-format print in the industry.
