Working with Careprint - A Seamless Integration
About Us
Careprint has been providing a dedicated service to funeral homes and private clients for over 34 years and understands the need for empathy, accuracy, quality, speed, flexibility and reliability. Careprint is a trading name of IsleStart Ltd, based in Sandown, Isle of Wight., from where we ship hundreds of orders a month across the UK. During the pandemic we worked with the Department of Work and Pensions to help unemployed people aged 18-24 gain vital work experience through the Kickstarter scheme. Alongside our highly experienced design and print team, we aim to continue this vital outreach. Modern digital presses and premium stocks guarantee quality products, backed up by an exceptional level of customer service.
We are pleased to provide B2B (business to business) services to support regular business clients who need varying levels of support to produce their printed stationery.
