Latest News
March 2019
New Products
This month our exciting new products are developments of existing items.
Hexagons are ‘THE shape’ for 2019 and we’re seeing them cropping up more and more in 
marketing materials. Ideal for weddings they make fantastic coasters or keyrings and they also interlock to make stunning wall art – ideal for Mother’s Day. We have re-sized our hexagon and now offer EIGHT sizes, to fit on A3 – ideal as a dry-wipe (£2.95) right down to tiny charms (14p) – for earrings and pendants.
We also have a new range of placemat sizes – some which match the Unisub sizes, some matching our stock sizes and all offered with an optional MDF backing incl tape (£1.40) – turning them into a luxury product. We now have Small 190×230 (£1.55) Medium 200×250 (£1.75) Large (A4) 200×290 and Large (A4 Ricoh) 197x283mm (both £1.99).
The Unisub placemat is a fab product but typically a pain to sub as it can warp when pressing – our solution of a separate MDF back adhered after pressing the metal solves this problem.
Our US style licence plate 305x150mm has also been updated with more options – and now 
comes available with inner ‘slots’ as an option as well as the various hole options to create a truly authentic USA look (from £2.54 for this option).
Finally for this month (more customer requests) we have added to our Custom cut inserts category – remember if you fill out our Quote request items we are happy to look at cutting metal to fit your items (we normally require your item posted to us) so that you can produce totally bespoke personalised products!
Seasonal gifts – Mother’s Day (March 31st) and Father’s Day (June 16th)
We have a huge range of products that make excellent gifts for Mother’s (and soon Father’s) Day. From personalised coasters and placemats to wall clocks and keyrings. Why not try marketing our new Notice board – ideal for a craft room, kitchen or office or our luxury keyrings? Don’t forget we have a huge range of jewellery – something for everyone, from chunky cuff bracelets to tiny love charms for delicate necklaces or earrings or even adding to bracelets. Last but not least our Pandora Style hearts in silver and Sterling silver are always incredibly popular as is our Pandora Style rectangular charm and our Nomination Style charm.
March free gift (for MUM of course!)
This month our free gift is our new freestanding scored mini sign with the word ‘Mum’ cut 
out. This highlights our machine’s scoring abilities and also showcases the kind of intricate shapes we can now cut. This item is 75x40mm overall (59x40mm after bending) and available from just 54p plain with a score, or from 69p with cutouts.
‘Mad March’ (for Mums) VERY Special Offer
New Coaster and Placemat Bumper Collection! So you can sample our new range of luxury placemats and also trial out all the other sizes/shapes of coasters and placemats we offer, we have added a new Bumper Pack at the special offer price of only £16.95 for over £23 worth of product – more than 25% saving!! For March only – specially so you can all treat your Mums to a set of personalised or ‘World’s Best Mum’ placemat (or pot stand!) and coaster – we are also adding a pretty Teapot shaped placemat with MDF backing and cup coaster totally FREE, worth a further £4.57! Mad March is here!!
New ‘Subli Essentials’ – our Core range items in bulk discounted packs
We have decided to add a new range of core items in discounted bulk packs. These will be 
available in our best selling configuration only (i.e. in a standard size, or white only or with rounded corners etc etc) in packs of around £12 – £20 worth, at a higher discount than our normal bulk discounted rate.
For extra convenience, we have created a special category for these grouped together, so that if any are ordered from within this category, they fall outside of our normal £35 minimum order requirements, meaning they are great for topping up between stock orders or also 
ideal if you want to sample a bigger selection of items than our normal ‘3 items only’ sample policy allows.
Prices Held (so far!)
The tariff on aluminium that has been reported in the press is now affecting our price for aluminium by up to 10% on some brands…So far, we have managed to absorb increases by buying in larger sizes, so have managed to keep our prices stable and not pass on any increase to you, the customer. However, unfortunately, we may well have to increase prices in the near future, especially on Chromaluxe metals (but not necessarily limited to – we’re still doing calculations) so now’s the time to beat the rise and stock up!
Stock Update
We are well stocked in all metal finishes and can now offer cutting in Chromaluxe (all finishes) up to 1200 x 2400mm, white and brushed silver in 0.5mm and white in 0.7mm up to 1270 x 610mm – please contact us for a quote using the over 610x305mm Quote item in the Samples and Quote category on the website. Unisub Steel to be added asap!
STOP PRESS! STOP PRESS!!
Next month we will have some really special news about a new service we will be offering to print and/or press these larger than desktop (A2 and above) sizes!
Welcome to 2019! We’re looking forward to working with you this year and helping you to grow and develop your business by offering our usual fantastic service coupled with new products, free gifts, special offers and marketing ideas. We want 2019 to be your best year yet!!

But these small cards are also available in double-sided 0.5mm and 1.1mm plus our full range of single sided colours and finishes.

Perfect for fabulous greetings cards, unusual gifts or stunning decorations. Print photos of the family behind the window for a greeting – “Our house to yours”… add a plaque above the window to create a shop front for local retailers or estate agents … add a bird element for a pretty bird house decoration, turn the gingerbread man into an elegant dancer, a pretty lady or even a baby – the list is as endless as your imagination! A big thank you goes to our 10 and 7 year old girls Jacinta and Imogen for the fab graphics on the houses pictured.

We also have a new Pendant bookmark which can be used in conjunction with any of our small jewellery printable shapes and charms or indeed the larger ones for added impact. This product is perfect as a bookmark but can also be used as a larger memory marker for weddings. This is the ideal way to remember loved ones who cannot be there on the big day, by including their photograph on a pendant within the bouquet. It can also be used to include beloved pets in your special day.
As ever please share your printed free samples with us and if we can re-post your picture you will receive a £10 money-off coupon!
Thank you to Mark Pierce who sent us this printed sample bookmark clip (above) using his latest free sample.
New Products on our Custom Cut machine – Beautiful Butterflies
As well as our new Bookmark offerings, we’ve now starting to expand our range of decorative shapes -starting with a splash of colour for summer – Butterflies. The first style added is based on a photo of a real life butterfly that Nicci took (thanks to Bugtopia’s new tropical house opening recently near us!). So we are supplying it not only with a blank template, but also the actual butterfly photograph so you can print your own versions at home which map exactly to the shape of the butterfly! You can easily change the colours in Photoshop to match any decor. Please see our website for a simple tutorial on how to do this and also how to bend the butterfly into shape for added realism. These make fabulous statement jewellery pieces (pendants and brooches), home decor items, wall art and clocks and of course can be used with our new pendant bookmark to adorn a bouquet or flower display!
