Paper types on offer
We provide 3 different paper types:
- 75gsm architect paper – This is the industry standard architectural paper which is lightweight and easy to fold.
- 150gsm cartridge paper – When you require something a bit more substantial and durable this 150gsm paper fits the bill, it feels like thin card.
- Tracing paper – Tracing paper media is around 100gsm thick. Being translucent and see through, tracing paper is suitable for overlaying onto other plans.
Types of plans we print
Plans can be used for a wide range of applications, some of which are:
- Architect plans – For final building warrant submission or for presentations to clients. Normally A1 sized plans printed onto 75gsm paper
- Building & construction Plans – For use on-site by builders and project managers. Being used outside these plans need to withstand the elements. We recommend they are printed onto either the thicker 150gsm paper or laminated to make them waterproof and durable.
- Electrical & Engineering plans – Often electrical and engineering plans are very detailed and intricate and printed in colour to differentiate and highlight the different aspects and stages of the work.
- Landscaping plans – Normally large areas of ground are covered in detail. We often print landscape plans A0 in size so as all the detail and text is not too small and is legible. Landscape plans are often printed in colour to make parks and roads etc obvious.
