Anyone still print catalogues?
Discussion
We produce a catalogue every other year which which unfortunately is key for certain customers we supply.
Does anyone have any cost effective printer recommendations, we have been using same one for a while and pricing is crazy - just want to check the market and save some money.
200ish pages, spot uv to cover, tabs cut out through whole catalogue.
Thanks!

What's the quantity?
Do you know if it's printed Litho or Web?
Paper Prices peaked significantly in 2022/23 which is when you would have last printed the catalogues. They've reduced quite a bit since and as Sebring says, it's a very competitive field at the moment.
I use Kingfisher in Suffolk for a lot of stuff: https://www.kingfisher-press.com
If the run is particularly large, you could use a print broker. I've used Nexus previously for this: https://nexuscpp.co.uk

Plenty of catalogue printers out there. I tend to use Stephens & George in South Wales for the ones i do for various clients.
Catalogues are still popular as it is much easier to show a customer 20 different colour/style options leafing through a catalogue than it is to scroll through a website.

Many thanks for the replies.
That's a good point about the tabbing. I know that was an expensive extra. I will consider whether we need it moving forward.
The quantity we have printed is about 2,000. I'm not sure of the process of printing we have had previously, but it's a 200-page catalogue. I'll give the companies mentioned a go.
To top us up, we just had some digitally printed at £25 per go! We won't run out next time!
Thanks very much.
