Ideas Media Creative
HDco is a print, signage and production house. Books and commercial print, large-format signage, and the fabrication, warehousing and installation crews that put a campaign on the ground.
01 / What we do
Print shops print. Sign makers make signs. We do both, and then we hold the stock, build the fixtures and send the crews out to install — so a campaign doesn't get handed between three companies and a spreadsheet.
Bound, finished and delivered as printed pieces
Short runs and long runs: paperbacks and hardbacks, catalogues, annual reports, brochures, certificates, packaging and stationery. Proofed before the press runs, finished after it — lamination, foiling, spot UV, embossing and die-cutting.
Shopfronts, illuminated signs, hoardings, vehicle graphics
Large-format printing on roll and rigid media, built up in acrylic, aluminium composite and steel. Measured on site, produced to drawing, installed by our own crews — a single sign or the same sign in eighty locations.
Kiosks, fixtures, warehousing and campaign rollout
The industrial side of the business: kiosks and retail fixtures built, stored, kitted and installed; campaign material held in the warehouse and dispatched to schedule; site crews that arrive with the right tools and leave the place clean.
Artwork, campaign creative and paid social
Creative and artwork sit alongside the production: campaign design, Facebook advertising and the printed pieces that carry it. The file that goes to press and the file that goes to the feed come off the same desk, so the colours and the message match.
Storage, kitting, delivery, installation and the clearing up afterwards — handled by the same people who produced the job. Production & installation
02 / Selected work
Three long-standing relationships, three very different jobs — one warehouse rollout, one brand campaign, one institution that needed both paper and pixels.
03 / How we work
Four steps, and a named contact through all of them. You'll know what stage the job is at without having to ask.
Send finished artwork, or a sketch on the back of an envelope. We'll ask the questions that stop a job going wrong: quantity, size, substrate, deadline and site access.
A PDF proof for layout, a colour proof for anything that has to match. Nothing goes on press until you've signed it off.
Printed, bound, fabricated, cut, laminated. One contact keeps you updated as the job moves through the workshop, so you are not left chasing for an answer.
Packed, stored, delivered or installed. Site crews for signage and fixtures, dispatch and tracking for anything going out to multiple locations.
Send the artwork, the quantity and the deadline. You'll get a quote and a production schedule back.
