So, how does it fit together? The size of the corrugated case is 165x223mm, with a 15mm capacity. The case is covered by a full length wrap, open at both ends printed in 2 colours only on Nptune Unique 250gsm. Inside the corrugated case is the main resouce box which is printed (again in just 2 colours) on our very solid Matrisse 450gsm. Inside the resource box is the main booklet, A5 portrait, self cover on Neptune Unique 160gsm, printed CMYK ...and with green coloured staples - a very nice touch!
The below pictures show how the package work in sequence:
Design is by James Ritchie at James Ritchie Design. This was a design job on a budget (...you know what I mean!) so James coordinated the suppliers, so he could get the best value.
The Screen-printed capacity box with slipcase: Screen print by Atlantic Coast Studio based in Teweksbury (no website from them). The slipcase/wrap by Prom Print Digital in Cheltenham printed Indigo onto their house 300gsm uncoated - a run of 300! Tuck-flap box: printed by Granite, run of 1000 on Matrisse 450gsm board. 16pp booklet: printed by Granite, run of 1000
...and a very nice thank you:
P.S. I should mention that further to my post about Granite in January, there is some good news: http://justinsamazingworldatfennerpaper.blogspot.com/2011/01/granite-colour-goes-into-liquidation.html)
they have since been acquired and merged into the Park Communications group (www.parkcom.co.uk). They are now operating as a their own seperate entity (at the factory in Leigh on Sea) within a stronger and much larger group, so great news all round, especially for all the staff.
