Creating a Bespoke Portfolio That Reflects Quality and Durability
The Project
We were contacted by Piran Marine for our assistance in printing and binding a portfolio, showcasing the plans of a new product.
Piran Marine are a Cornwall-based company specialising in advanced composites manufacturing and repair for many prestigious clients on racing yachts, super yachts and rescue vessels.
The product being featured was designed for a super yacht, therefore the quality of the portfolio needed to reflect this. The client sent us photos of the style of cover they were looking for, requiring a very short run of five copies each containing 20 A3 pages.
Key Challenges
Project managing the various experts to ensure the project was delivered on time.
Our Solution
Based on the artwork supplied by the client, we came up with a plan to produce a hard portfolio cover to accommodate the A3 pages. Our team liaised with a specialist binder to hand-build the covers, adding foiling to the logo and text on the front.
The covers were created from 3mm MDF enveloped in hard-wearing buckram and were then carefully drilled along one edge.
The pages were digitally-printed in full-colour on a good quality 300gsm matt stock, before being hand-bound into the cover using good-quality brass screws.
The team at SAPC co-ordinated the production of all elements to ensure the project was delivered on-time, on-budget and looked great.
