With our new digital printers, Imaterial welcomes small, personalised and customised print runs.
We believe in treating our smaller jobs with as much importance and dedication as our more extensive jobs.
There is no job too big or too small. Clients can now do one-off jobs from one meter upwards. This affords the chance for new or growing businesses to enter the market.
