At Artis, we understand that people often do judge books by their covers—despite the best advice to the contrary. First impressions matter, which is why we take immense pride in our meticulous attention to detail. By offering a comprehensive range of cutting-edge printing techniques, we ensure that your printed materials reflect the quality and prestige your brand deserves.
When you present a sales brochure to a potential client, it needs to make a statement. Sloppy, cheaply printed literature can deter potential customers and leave a negative impression of your product or service. Your print materials should mirror your brand’s elegance and sophistication, and at Artis, that’s exactly what we strive to achieve.
We’re excited to delve into one of the bespoke printing services we proudly offer—casemaking. This technique allows us to create luxurious, durable covers that not only protect but also enhance the visual appeal of your printed materials.
Also known as ‘casebinding,’ case making is an exceptional way to encapsulate sales brochures or other printed materials in a manner that leaves a lasting impression. But what exactly does case making entail?
In essence, case making involves wrapping a piece of printed material in a hard, durable cardboard cover. This cover acts as a protective sheath or box, ensuring that your printed materials are presented in a way that exudes quality and sophistication.
To illustrate the power of this technique, let’s explore three examples of case making in action. These examples will show how this method can be an incredibly effective way to present your high-quality brochures and much more, ensuring that your brand stands out with every interaction.
A ‘slipcase’ is essentially a sleek box designed to hold a set of brochures or other printed materials, keeping them neatly together while protecting them and leaving the spine visible. Incorporating these hardback cases into your presentation not only adds an extra layer of importance to the documents within but also allows you to showcase your brand with a highly visible, customised design.
For added elegance and convenience, these tasteful slipcases can be enclosed within a briefcase-style box, making transport easy and stylish. The finished product resembles a bespoke, branded briefcase—specially crafted to house your exquisitely printed sales brochures, leaving a lasting impression on your clients.
Another highly effective method for showcasing your sales material is through the use of a hardback display book. When you have a large amount of information to present, these books become invaluable.
They offer more than just protection for your pages; they transform your content into an easily accessible, professional presentation. A well-crafted display book not only keeps your materials organised and secure but also ensures that potential customers can effortlessly navigate through the information, leaving them with a lasting, positive impression of your brand.
Settlement boxes are becoming an increasingly popular trend in the real estate industry, and it’s easy to see why—they add a thoughtful and personalised touch to the final stages of a property sale. Whether presented as functional ‘handover boxes’ or as mini gift hampers, these boxes ensure that your clients feel genuinely appreciated and well taken care of.
A typical handover box might include essential items like keys for the new property, garage door remotes, and final pieces of documentation. However, it’s becoming more common to elevate this gesture by including personalised gifts, turning a simple transaction into a memorable experience. This approach not only enhances your client’s satisfaction but also ensures your brand is remembered long after the sale is complete.
Whichever option you choose, Artis will craft high-quality, bespoke settlement boxes that showcase your branding and design beautifully. Let us help you make that final impression truly unforgettable.
While we’ve highlighted just a few examples of case making, the truth is that this versatile technique offers limitless possibilities. At Artis, we thrive on creativity and innovation, and we’re always excited to hear your ideas on how we can bring your vision to life.
Our standard case making process typically involves using a 2500um greyboard—an eco-friendly, 2.5mm thick recycled cardboard—as the base substrate for your custom design. But that’s just the beginning.
The base board can be wrapped in a variety of luxurious finishes, including fabric, paper, or even leather, allowing you to create a truly unique and memorable presentation. Want to take it a step further? We can enhance your cases with additional techniques like embossing, debossing, or hot foiling, adding that extra touch of texture and elegance to your documents.
With Artis, the possibilities are endless, and we’re here to help you explore them all.
