Geoff Neal Litho Limited (GNL) specialises in producing a complete Direct Mail Solution, including proofing, printing, finishing, data processing, laser printing, enclosing and mailing.

GNL was established in 1976 on the premise that print publicises and therefore needs to be produced with feeling and to a high quality and to achieve this there needs to be a careful balance of technology, well trained personnel and an ethos of “waste not want not”.

One of GNLs main concerns has always been to do the job safely and cleanly, for staff, the community and the environment. To this end GNL is a member of The British Safety Council and is accredited with the environmental standard ISO14001. Also, to guarantee to customers that they are able to buy paper with confidence so that they are not contributing to global forest destruction, GNL has added FSC Chain of Custody Certification to the increasing list of achievements.

The quality standard ISO9001 is a further accreditation achieved in order to meet the aim of providing products and services that are consistently in accordance with customers’ needs.
