Calendar Printing

Paper Options

When it comes to calendar printing, selecting the right paper is crucial to achieve a high-quality and professional finish. Prime Printings offers three main paper options to choose from:

Glossy art paper	Matte art paper	Uncoated paper	Special paper

Glossy art paper is perfect for calendars that require vibrant colors and sharp images. It has a smooth surface that enhances the overall visual appeal of the calendar. On the other hand, matte art paper provides a more subdued and elegant look, making it suitable for calendars with a minimalist or artistic design. Both options are of excellent quality, ensuring that your calendar will look stunning.

If you prefer a more natural and classic look for your calendar, uncoated paper is an excellent choice. Uncoated paper has a slightly rough texture, giving it a tactile and organic feel. This type of paper is ideal for calendars with a rustic or vintage theme. Additionally, uncoated paper is easier to write on, making it practical for jotting down important notes and reminders.

For those who want to make a bold statement with their calendars, Prime Printings offers a range of special paper options. From textured paper that adds depth and dimension to metallic paper that exudes sophistication, the possibilities are endless. Special paper is perfect for creating unique and eye-catching calendars that stand out from the crowd.

Finish Options

In addition to choosing the right paper, selecting the appropriate finish can greatly enhance the overall look and feel of your calendar. Prime Printings offers several finishes to add that extra touch of elegance and professionalism:

Lamination is a popular choice for protecting calendars from wear and tear. It involves applying a thin layer of plastic coating over the paper, creating a glossy or matte finish. Lamination not only adds durability to your calendar but also enhances the colors and images, making them more vibrant and eye-catching.

Spot UV is a technique that involves applying a glossy coating to specific areas of the calendar, creating a striking contrast between the shiny and matte surfaces. This finish is perfect for highlighting important elements such as logos, titles, or images, giving your calendar a sophisticated and premium look.

Foil stamping adds a touch of luxury and elegance to your calendar. It involves applying a thin layer of metallic foil onto the paper using heat and pressure, creating a beautiful and reflective surface. Foil stamping is commonly used for adding metallic accents to text, borders, or patterns, making your calendar truly stand out.

Varnish is a clear coating that adds a subtle sheen to the entire surface of your calendar. It provides a protective layer while enhancing the colors and details. Varnish is a versatile finish that can be applied in different levels of glossiness, allowing you to achieve the desired effect for your calendar.

Binding Methods

The binding method you choose for your calendar is essential for ensuring its durability and functionality. Prime Printings offers three main binding methods:

Saddle stitch binding

Saddle stitch binding involves folding the pages of the calendar in half and stapling them along the fold. This method is commonly used for thinner calendars with fewer pages. It provides a clean and seamless look, allowing the calendar to lay flat when opened.

Wire-O binding

Wire-O binding is a popular choice for calendars that need to lay completely flat when opened. It involves punching holes along the edge of the pages and threading a metal wire through them. Wire-O binding is durable and allows for easy page-turning, making it perfect for calendars that require frequent reference or use.

Custom Calendar Styles

Prime Printings understands that every business or individual has unique calendar needs. That's why they offer a wide range of custom calendar styles to choose from:

Desk calendars

Desk calendars are a practical and versatile option, perfect for displaying on desks or countertops. They often come with a stand or easel, allowing you to easily flip through the pages and keep track of important dates. Desk calendars can be customized with your own designs, logos, or promotional messages, making them an effective marketing tool.

Wall calendars

Wall calendars are a classic choice for keeping track of dates and events at a glance. They can be hung on walls or bulletin boards, ensuring that they are easily visible and accessible. Wall calendars can be personalized with your own photos, illustrations, or inspirational quotes, making them a great addition to any home or office.

Desk pad calendars

Desk pad calendars are larger than desk calendars and provide ample space for writing notes, appointments, and reminders. They are designed to be placed on desks or workstations, acting as a handy planning tool. Desk pad calendars can be customized with your company's branding, contact information, or even useful reference information, making them a practical gift for clients or employees.

Notebook calendars

Notebook calendars combine the functionality of a traditional calendar with the convenience of a notebook. They typically have monthly or weekly calendar pages combined with blank or lined pages for taking notes or journaling. Notebook calendars can be customized with your own cover design, allowing you to create a personalized and useful tool for yourself or as a gift.

Custom calendar as a new year gift to your customer is the cheapest way to promote your company. When your customer opens the calendar every day, they will notice on your company and product. Once they have any procurement requirements, they will remember you for the first time.
