Founded in 1983 and still in Industrial Area 12 — the same team, the same standards, considerably more machinery. Long enough to have printed for three generations of some of our clients.

Packaging
Packaging
From branded bags to custom boxes, envelopes and books — specified, printed, finished and assembled in Sharjah. Seven disciplines, one building, one person to call.
Rigid hard-case and folding normal-case boxes, wrapped, foiled and fitted to the product they carry. Magnetic lids, drawer pulls, ribbon lifts — specified at the dieline stage so it opens exactly the way you intend.
Magnetic closures, fitted EVA and card inserts, mirror-finish foils and soft-touch laminates. The category where the box is doing half the selling, so it gets the finishes to match.
Food-safe boards, greaseproof liners and cartons built for service — printed to the same standard as everything else, and stacked so a busy kitchen can actually use them.
Rope, ribbon and die-cut handles on kraft, art card and laminated stocks. Reinforced bases and turned tops, because a bag that fails on the way to the car is a bad advertisement.
Wrapped, stitched and blind-debossed leather and leatherette for presentation cases — for the jobs where the packaging is expected to be kept.
Slip cases and belly bands that turn a plain box into a considered unboxing, and let one base carton serve a whole product range.
Cartons, leaflets and labels produced to the tolerances the sector expects — legible small type, consistent colour, and batch-to-batch repeatability.

Other services
The small printedthings that carrya brand.
Emphasising your brand is one of the most significant parts of business development. Most businesses are remembered less for the product than for the card left behind, the folder handed over, the envelope that arrived.
That is where the smaller pieces earn their keep — and they get exactly the same stocks, foils and press time as the headline job.

- Letterheads
- Postcards
- Presentation Folders
- Flyers
- Tags
- Butter Papers
- Envelopes
- Certificates

Vision & Values
04 Vision & values
Our vision is to provide local and global markets with superior printing and packaging services — developing innovative solutions that satisfy customer needs, giving employees meaningful work and advanced opportunities, and offering investors constant growth.
Demonstrating honesty and transparency with our clients — on timelines, on costs, and on what a finish will actually look like once it comes off the press. If something will not work, you hear it from us before it is printed, not after.
Encouraging creativity, continuous improvement and the development of new ideas, so the work never settles into a house style. New stocks, new finishes and new techniques get tested here first.
Maintaining a high standard in every part of the business, because customer satisfaction is decided by the last five percent of a job — the trim, the register, the fold, the box that closes cleanly.
