See the world through metallic tinted glass...

Ltd Limited has always been ahead of the game. Using state of the art Epson printers, Ltd is the first company in the UK to invest in the 10 colour SureColor SC-S70600, which supports white and metallic ink simultaneously. This new technology allows Ltd to really push the boundaries and create some of the most stunning precision print manifestations ever seen.

Ltd understands the potential of a job, James Everett, Digital Manager states “We are on the cutting edge when it comes to experimenting with new medias”. The metallic and white inks are able to create gradients that you just couldn’t get beforehand and the sheer size of the printer means flowing panels of impressive graphics look perfect every time. “No Compromise”.


The metallic printing methods are so precise you can trust that they will look great on any window, even against the most vivid sunlight. The effects are simply incredible. “The position of the gradients, to how metallic an area would be, to the opacity of white, to the translucence of the transparency of the graphics” Everything is taken into consideration and in true form, Ltd will surpass all expectations.

 In Print Monthly Phil McMullin lists Ltd as one of his favourite applications of Epson printing technology, saying “Ltd Limited [that] produces fantastic manifestations with metallic ink for offices and interiors for companies such as Rolls Royce”

Yes! Rolls Royce…

Silvering felt like the perfect method to use for Rolls Royce. Technical Director Seymour Reeves states, "They wanted to see what could be achieved and to make the project extra special. We felt we could bring to their customer base the feeling that they were in an environment specific to Rolls Royce... It’s about creating exactly what our client has asked us to no compromises and they were absolutely blown away with the results"

Rolls Royce was a specialist job requiring fantastic results, results that could be delivered through Ltd’s understanding of what can be achieved with their specialist equipment. The right team of people were brought together to create exactly what the client had asked for and deliver a job they could all be proud of.

Where there’s a wall, there’s a way!

Here at Ltd Ltd we believe anything is possible. Clients approach us with all kinds of wonderful requests and we pride ourselves in an ability to solve any brief. After all; ‘We love a challenge, and live by the mantra ''We’ll find a way.''

So when a client approaches us with their brief for a short-term event or exhibition we approach the task with the same enthusiasm, excitement and high standards as any permanent or long term project.

Let us introduce you to Wallapeel™, a Ltd product that prints as beautifully as any other whilst saving time and money. Wallapeel’s unique properties allow it to be applied on the walls of listed buildings and other previously unusable walls, without damaging them in any way. Installed like a traditional wallpaper, Wallapeel will leave no marks or residue on your walls whatsoever.

Take for example our London College of Fashion event. Held for one night only at the magnificent Il Bottaccio on Grosvenor Place, the venue stated you could not drill, mark or damage the walls. For the first time ever, Ltd adorned the previously untouched walls with Wallapeel artwork.
  
Speedy installment took place on the afternoon of the party and work was taken down by the client, in just half an hour that same evening. An example of when Wallapeel can really save the day!
  
The Monsters Inked exhibition at the Idea Generation Gallery was a ‘delightful opportunity for kids of all ages to check out some vibrant, cheeky and (above all) incredibly well executed art.’. An enormous 7m x 8m commissioned artwork by Pete Fowler was installed and removed, leaving no damage to the white gallery wall.

Wallapeel was chosen for this exhibition due to the quick installation process; cost-effective nature of the product and easily-removable qualities. Eloise Rowley, gallery manager at Idea Generation was full of praise for the product;

"Wallapeel brought to life Pete Fowler’s out-of-this-world artwork and completely transformed the gallery space. But on top of that, we can now remove the mural when the time comes ourselves at no further cost."


 The versatilities of Wallapeel are endless, the V&A Museum - one of the most prestigious listed buildings we have worked with to date – required print cut, removable Wallapeel to all columns. White back printed translucent Manifestations installed to the main glass panels and graduated colour circle translucent prints installed to the cabinet glass doors. No job is too big for Ltd and this is the spectacular result:

Ltd’s reputation-based success is founded on our willingness to always
search for a better way of doing things: we love a challenge, so what challenge can we take on for you?
