People behind the print

We're a commercial printing company just outside Cambridge, producing everything from a single conference pack to a nationwide mailing project. Litho, digital, finishing and delivery, all handled by the same team.
Langham Press Team

Who we are

Langham Press has been printing for businesses, charities, colleges and publishers in and around Cambridge since 2012. In that time, we’ve produced everything from prospectuses, annual reports and exhibition catalogues to newsletters delivered to thousands of homes — and, of course, a great many business cards.

We run both lithographic and digital presses, with finishing carried out on site. That matters more than it might sound. It means we’re not passing your job between different suppliers and hoping for the best. We can oversee it from the first proof through to the finished job leaving our premises, stepping in quickly if anything needs correcting along the way.

We’re also a small enough team that you’ll speak to someone who genuinely knows your job. You’ll have a dedicated account manager as your main point of contact, who’ll work with you from one project to the next. So when you come back to us, you won’t have to explain your requirements from scratch every time.

How we work

No two print projects are quite the same. You might come to us with a finished specification, a rough idea, or simply something you need help working out.

Wherever you’re starting from, we’ll guide you through the options, help you make the right choices and keep you informed at every stage — from the initial idea through to the finished print.
Contact Us

We’ll start by talking through your project: what you’re producing, who it’s for, how many you need and when you need it. We’ll also discuss your budget and any ideas you already have about size, paper or finishing. If you don’t have all the answers yet, that’s fine. We can talk you through the options and help you find the right solution for your project and budget.

There are usually several ways to approach a print job, and the most expensive option isn’t necessarily the best one. We’ll help you compare papers, formats, finishes and production methods, explaining the differences in straightforward terms. Our recommendations will always be based on what the finished piece needs to do, how you want it to look and feel, and what makes the most sense for your budget.

Once we’ve agreed the details, we’ll confirm the specification and check your artwork is suitable for production. If we spot anything that could affect the finished result, we’ll let you know before the job goes any further. You’ll then receive a proof to approve before we start production, giving you the opportunity to check everything is exactly as it should be.

Your job will then move through printing, finishing and, where required, binding or assembly. The same team stays involved throughout, coordinating each stage and keeping a close eye on quality. We won’t send a job out simply because it’s finished. It needs to be right.

Some projects need a single delivery. Others involve individual packing, detailed address lists or distribution to hundreds of locations around the country. We can manage as much of that process as you need, making sure your finished print arrives in good condition, with the right people and at the right time.

From the first conversation through to final delivery, you’ll have an experienced team to turn to. Our job is to make the whole process straightforward and give you a finished result you’ll be pleased to put your name to.

Our kit and capabilities

We print litho and digitally in-house, with digital capability up to a 1200mm long sheet, alongside perfect binding, saddle stitching and wiro-binding. For our clients, that means more choice over how a project is produced, greater flexibility on format and finish, and fewer compromises when a job falls outside the ordinary.

It also means you can bring more complex projects to one experienced team. Whether you need an unusual format, a specific binding style or simply advice on the best way to produce a job, we can find the right solution without trying to make your project fit the limitations of a single print process.
Sustainable Printing

Sustainability isn’t a buzzword for us it’s a core commitment. FSC®-certified print available on request, alongside recycled paper options, vegetable-based inks, 100% renewable electricity and our waste-reduction initiatives. Carbon-balanced papers available through partnerships with paper suppliers offsetting emissions from paper production and distribution.
