#ProudlyPrinted – The very best of 2021
2021 has been a huge year for Printed.com. We celebrated our 10th birthday, welcomed lots of new faces to our team and printed around 300,000 jobs (phew!).
With the end of the year in sight, we wanted to look back over the past 12 months and highlight some of our favourite editorial features from 2021. You may remember these from blogs gone by, but if you happened to miss any, here’s a roundup of our favs…

Powerful enough to keep your brand front of mind, yet small enough to comfortably fit in your wallet, we rounded up some of our favourite customer designs to show you just how versatile these pocket-sized prints can be.

Galloping horses, blooming houseplants and a passion for eco printing are just some of the things you can expect to see from Lauren Marina’s work. We were lucky enough get to know more about this incredible, independent, eco-friendly business.
The stars behind our brand campaign

In October we launched our Customer Stories brand campaign, featuring three small businesses who come to us for all their printing needs. From Yorkshire to Southampton, we took a road trip to uncover the amazing journey each of them are embarking on.

According to recent studies, the average guest scans a Menu for approximately 109 seconds. With first impressions being so important, it’s crucial you get the design right. We highlighted five of our customer designs that look good enough to eat.
We hope you enjoyed looking back at the best of 2021. Remember, if you fancy a slice of the action in 2022, just tag us in your printed creations over on Instagram using the hashtag #ProudlyPrinted.
