Surry Hills Bindery Quality Assurance & Interstate Freight Protocol
Every order produced by Endeavour Print & Goods Pty Ltd (ABN 75 648 291 730 · ACN 648 291 730) at 58 Reservoir Street, Surry Hills NSW 2010 undergoes a documented four-stage mechanical and archival inspection before leaving our Sydney pressroom. Our bindery technicians verify micrometer board calliper across 300 gsm and 600 gsm pure cotton rag sheets, check vegetable-oil Pantone ink density under standardized D50 daylight viewing booths, and test brass magnesium die impression depth across initial press proofs.
STAGE 01 · PRE-PRESS CHECK
Vector Trapping & Die Clearance Verification
Every submitted PDF artwork file is inspected for 0.25 pt minimum hairline stroke weight, 3 mm external guillotine bleed, and accurate vector separation between blind deboss, hot-foil stamping and spot letterpress plates.
STAGE 02 · BOARD LAMINATION
Moisture-Balanced Flatness Cure
Linen folios and 1800 gsm to 2400 gsm rigid presentation boxes are pressed in climate-regulated drying racks in Surry Hills to prevent board warping across humid coastal or dry inland Australian environments.
STAGE 03 · NATIONAL FREIGHT
Double-Wall Export Carton Packing
Finished stationery, menus and presentation boxes are individually wrapped in pH-neutral tissue, packed into double-wall corrugated cartons with corner board protectors, and dispatched via StarTrack or Australia Post with GST tax documentation.
