Cape Town: the work, the weather and the print shops
Film crews, ad agencies and the events calendar give the Mother City a different print rhythm from the rest of the country. Shoots need set graphics, prop prints and location paperwork; the CTICC brings conference backdrops and exhibition stands; and the summer tourist season fills orders for menus, maps, wine estate brochures and hotel stationery. Design studios in Woodstock and the city centre want fine papers, foiling and short runs, while Epping, Montague Gardens and Paarden Eiland host the big litho presses, sign makers and wide format printers. The summer southeaster tears banners, winter fronts bring heavy rain, and salt air near the coast is hard on steel.
The requests we see from Cape Town usually come from:
- Companies and offices: short runs of full colour shirts for a team building day or a launch
- Events, conferences and clubs: shirts with different sponsor blocks, names or dates on each one
