“Rival Colour provides us with a high-quality pre-press service at competitive rates. The customer service is excellent with fast turn-around times, always friendly and helpful and often exceeding expectations with their readiness to help – even hand-delivering proofs to authors when needs be! They are an integral part of our overall production process.”
Morna McPherson – Head of Production Batsford Books
Book publishing requires a lot of pre-press and reprographics work and Rival Colour has worked with Batsford Books for more than ten years as its primary printing company in London.
One recent project we worked on with Batsford using contemporary paper marbling was recognised when it received Highly Commended in the Best of Crafts Awards 2020, which is always a delight to see.
Batsford work closely with Tim and Anthony, and Morna has stated that they are “really friendly, helpful, and will jump on anything as soon as you need it done.”
We asked the Batsford team if they had any funny stories from their time working with us, and their reply was “nothing that you can print” which is both ironic and unfortunate for a printing company! We will leave it there.
