What are they? - DUFFIELDS

Where is it based? - LEEDS
"

Business relationships, trust, honour, and all those old fashioned clichés that worked when I started out as an apprentice 35 years ago still matter now.

And thank goodness paper is as much from a crop as is a vegetable, and we replenish this natural resource continuously, because the printed word is loved by children and intellectuals alike!"

Duffields is an environmental printers. Their ethics are to work with nature and replenish what they take out of it. What i like about this company is the fact that ot only are they about the bonds between the client and the printer but they think about the world and environment too, they have ethics. Which is more than most companies. They have been established for a very very long time, and have a very good working team, and only except the best. Their experience in the print industry really appeals to me because of the fact they know what they are doing, they have a strong client base and they are reliable as well as sustainable. I feel my role within this company would be the designer between client and the printer, and i know they advertise for employees that are work driven and ethical but i feel i would fit this role because i am driven and i want to work to gain my experience.
