History of Gemini

Having recently installed a flagship 5-colour SRA3 HP Indigo press to
complement our 4-colour 3050, Gemini Digital Colour are proud to be both the most-experienced and one of the most up-to-date HP colour digital printers in the UK. Gemini was established in 1993 as a division of 100-year-old family company D Brown & Sons Ltd. The Directors had realised that traditional litho was incapable of meeting the new market demands regarding speed of turnaround, quality and precise targeting that were now increasingly required. Quite impossible with conventional wet ink. But colour digital printing changed all that.

The unique technology developed by a then unknown Israeli company Indigo and Gemini Digital Colour revolutionised the print market. Indigos are the only machines in the world which, by using real ink not toner, can produce a result that is often even more vibrant than

conventional litho and streets ahead of any toner engines like Xerox and Xeikon. Hewlett Packard were so impressed by the concept that they subsequently bought the company and so HP Indigo was born. Their third and fourth generation machines which Gemini Digital Colour currently run have taken colour digital printing to new heights of quality and productivity in that now, through leading print management companies and design agencies, we are privileged to print for some of the most prestigious companies and organisations in the UK.

While exploiting all our experience in colour digital printing, we are a one-stop shop from sophisticated colour origination to comprehensive in-house finishing that even includes gloss and matt lamination. So we use our experience not only to PROMISE you exceptional service and control, we DELIVER on our promises!
