Aylesbury Park Golf Club  - signage         




We are fast becoming known to produce high quality fast and versatile signage around the area, one of which we have just finished is Aylesbury Park Golf Club

We had to design and produce 2 exterior aluminium signs to go in the car parks and also a members information cabinet as well as internal price boards





All of which were completely bespoke and fully installed by our qualified team. When we first take your enquiry we come out to discuss what you would like, measure up, come back to you with some different options and tell you honestly of any pitfalls or any problems that could incur. We will then design and proof it to your requirements and once approved, print and install at your earliest convenience.

Our signage is of the highest quality and workmanship and is fully guaranteed which is why we have designed, printed and installed so many over the years.


Andy Gerlack said ' Signage is a big part of our business and what we offer our clients is the whole package of how their business should look, I have been producing great pieces around the area for over 10 years now and I still get a kick out of seeing something we have produced years later still looking as good as new.

The Lost Art of Finishing


We always like to showcase the work we have done for a client and we wanted to show you this one because of the finishing on it, the design and print of the prospectus was of such quality that it had to be showcased.

The art of finishing is becoming a rarity nowadays but there are some specialist techniques that can change a printed piece of material to a new level.

What seemed to be a straightforward secondary school prospectus folder became a marketing piece of artwork. Too often a piece of communication gets lost within others so even more so nowadays it has to stand out from the crowd.

With this prospectus the target was to make it eye catching and for it to attract new students so we created  new layout for the inside spreads and for the cover we went for a metallic silver with the cover matt laminated with a spot UV varnish over the top for the logo and text which gave it a feel of an excellent piece of literature.

Spot UV varnish is a much sought after finish to a printed matter but usually the cost puts people off but it can transform an ordinary brochure into a brilliant piece.







So next time your having something printed, ask about the finishing options available, as for that little bit extra the results show for themselves

Design & Print The Way It Should Be









I get asked a lot about our strapline and what it means so I thought I would put into words what it stands for.

When we started Fresh over 5 years ago we took all the good bits from the companies that we had worked for and learnt from the bad bits as well to make Fresh into a company that:

Would firstly be excellent on quality, very creative design wise, have outstanding customer service, be very competitive, be a green as can be and give you a stress free, with no technical jargon enjoyable experience and deliver on time as well.

This has been our ethos and forms the structure to our approach with our clients since day 1 and has held us in good stead, which is why our clients come back to us time and again and the majority of our new business comes from recommendations.

So if you want to have your own Fresh experience then give us a call on any of the numbers above or email us at hello@freshdps.co.uk or visit us at www.freshdps.co.uk

#freefridayfresh         





We all like something for free and this is ours, hopefully bye now you'll have seen hashtags around and seen what they are used for.

If not, hashtags are way of seeing a bigger picture of the conversation of an event or a person that the world is talking about.

It is mostly used on twitter and all you have to do to  start a trend and get people talking about you is #yourself and you can find a collective way of what people are saying.


We are always trying to support local businesses so if you want to get people talking about you, let us know and every Friday we will shout out your name or company to help.
