Lithography
Offset lithography is the most widely used print process. 40% of all print jobs are produced with offset printing. It’s an indirect printing process which means that an image is transferred, or offset, from one surface to another. A printing plate mounted on a cylinder transfers the image to a rubber blanket mounted on another cylinder. The image is then transferred from the blanket cylinder to the substrate as it passes between the blanket cylinder and an impression cylinder. BSI has several cost effective standard inks available with options to print all Pantone colors.
Thermography
Thermography is the process for producing raised lettering, as on stationery or calling cards, by application of a powder fused by heat to the fresh ink. Thermography is also known as "imitation engraving”. An engraving die is not required, and the process is faster and far less expensive than true engraving. This can be applied to a wide selection of BSI standard ink colors or any color in the complete Pantone palette.

We produce letterhead and second sheets on a vast array of paper stocks using lithography and thermography. You may also choose to enhance your printing designs with foil stamping and embossing. Letterhead printing can bleed off the edge of the stock and may have close registration to accommodate your company's logo.
Flat printing is the most commonly ordered type of letterhead. Flat printed inks sometimes take extra drying time to prevent offsetting of inks.
Laser-safe raised (thermography) is required if you are going to use the letterhead in a laser printer. The high temperatures generated by laser printers can melt the ink and damage your printer if a laser-safe thermography is not used.
