Print Production Support for Design Agencies
Forest Print works with Australian graphic design studios, branding agencies and independent designers on books, packaging and specialist print projects.
Our Melbourne team can assist with specifications, samples, artwork checking and delivery, while production is completed through our own printing facility in China.
We can work quietly behind the scenes as your production partner. Where a project is referred by an agency, we will not approach the agency’s client independently.

Complete Production Support for Design Agencies
Specifications and Cost Planning
We can review a preliminary concept before the artwork is complete.
Support can include:
- Paper and board recommendations
- Binding and construction options
- Preliminary pricing
- Quantity comparisons
- Format and page-count advice
- Freight estimates
Early input can help avoid specification changes later in the project.
Samples and Prototypes
Physical samples are useful when the client needs to approve scale, materials or construction.
Depending on the project, we can provide:
- Existing production samples
- Blank mock-ups
- Digital printed samples
- Bound book samples
- Packaging prototypes
- Colour proofs
- Pre-production samples
Samples can be supplied directly to the agency for presentation to its client.
Publisher and Designer Support
We can work directly with publishers, production managers and appointed designers.
Support can include:
- Preliminary pricing
- Paper recommendations
- Spine calculations
- Artwork specifications
- File checking
- Proof coordination
- Production scheduling
We can assist from the early specification stage through to final production approval.
Confidential Trade Production
We can work as a confidential production partner for agencies that prefer to manage the client relationship directly.
This may include:
- No direct client approach
- Neutral or agency-branded communication
- Unbranded samples
- Delivery to the agency or end client
- Separate production and freight pricing
- White-label project support
The preferred communication arrangement can be agreed before the project begins.
