Pagefast is Lancaster’s leading commercial printer. Back in 1989 we started small, with a mind to developing relationships and seeing where we could go. We’re now Lancaster’s biggest lithographic and digital printer — and we’re still working for the client who gave us our first break. We handle a lot of conventional commercial print — stationery, brochures, advertising materials and so on — but a large part of our business lies in the provision of contract publishing services. We produce a diverse range of periodicals, ranging from glossy A4 magazines to a weekly newspaper. Print runs range from the high hundreds to many thousands. Because of our publishing contracts we are unusual in being able to offer design, editing and mailing services in addition to print and print finishing. Our service is fully customizable. For some customers we simply print from finished artwork, fold and stitch if required, and trim and box up their order. At the other end of the scale, for several of our magazine customers we do everything except source their raw material. In all cases, final approval of copy and design rests with the customer.
