Forms
NCR (No Carbon Required) duplicating sets are one of our particular specialities. They are the quick and simple solution when several copies of a document are required. The range of applications is endless, from Delivery Notes to Restaurant Order Pads or Sales Invoices.
Long runs, short runs, single sheets or large books. As far as forms go we can do the lot! We ensure every communication form that your business uses works perfectly.
An NCR Set consists of at least two sheets. They rely on pressure to transfer an image from the top sheet to those underneath. They can be used with a ball point pen or using an impact printer such as a Dot Matrix or Daisy Wheel. The amount of pressure required to form an adequate copy on the bottom sheet increases with the number of sheets in the set. For this reason sets should not normally be more than five sheets.
Sheets are available in the following colours:- Blue, Pink, Green, Yellow and White.
A 170gm white card bottom sheet can be specified if required. This is particularly useful in applications where loose sets are needed but flat surfaces for writing are difficult to find! NCR sets are supplied ready to use as loose individual sets as standard.
Bespoke NCR Sets
If you require a bespoke size NCR simply detail your requirements at the time of order. Please price as the next size up. We make no additional charge for cutting sets to non standard sizes.
Special Shaped NCR Sets
We can cut pads up to A4 size to any special shape. The cost of the Cutting Forme (which is a one off cost) depends on the complexity of the shape required.
