The Environment
Aldgate Press were pioneers in the use of recycled papers. All our inks are vegetable oil-based. We recycle all our waste paper, plates and chemicals. We output files direct to a thermal plate, thus avoiding the use of chemicals in processing.

We can help with your artwork and place your imagination and creativity within an affordable, client-friendly, budget. We are able to handle work on both Mac and Windows platforms, using the latest versions of industry-standard programs.
