DIGITAL PRINTING
AHC is deeply rooted in creative finesse which makes us challenge the boundaries of printing.Our print studio incorporates a unique blend of traditional and contemporary printing by coupling the latest digital laserjet and inkjet presses with vintage presses. Our digital presses can print up to 4800dpi achieving near offset print quality with exceptional image reproduction and smooth colour gradation. Further, we have the facility to digitally print white ink on black paper, coloured papers, kraft board and transparent media. By coupling printing innovation with our print embellishment services and artisanal finishing skills, our services are highly sought after by our client base throughout Europe, North America, Australia and the UAE.
Consolidation of our press resources enables us to have the propensity to achieve excellent quality colour printing on a hugely diverse range of papers with a particular focus on both GF Smith and Fedrigoni's paper collections as well as sustainable papers like zero waste plantable seed paper.
Some of the papers we regularly print on:

- Embossed papers.
- Textured papers such as hammered, gesso, cartridge and linen.
- Plantable seed papers.
- Petal papers that contain real flower petals.
