About Cambridge Imprint

Cambridge Imprint is a small paper-making business in Cambridge, England, designing and printing patterned paper. We are known for our beautiful colours, our joyful illustration and typography, a lively, hand-drawn aesthetic, and meticulous attention to detail. Virtually all Cambridge Imprint products are designed, manufactured, finished and packaged in England. Our patterned paper is printed on a lithographic press by a long-established printers’ cooperative in Bethnal Green in London. It is printed on a matte uncoated stock using vegetable oil-based inks hand-mixed for each job, a process that closely mirrors the way the prototypes are produced in our workshop. From Sheffield and Stoke-on-Trent, through Bedfordshire and Suffolk and down into Devon, our products are manufactured by various small English businesses with high levels of expertise and craftsmanship. We work with a range of box-makers, book-binders, potteries and textile printers to make our patterns and papers into enduring, resilient, beautiful, useful things. Read their story
