Newsquest chooses Acorn to print magazine trio

Newsquest has awarded contracts to print three of its titles to Acorn Web Offset.

Weekly magazine The Scottish Farmer, as well as TGO (The Great Outdoors) and Scottish Mountaineer magazines, will be printed on Rotoman N60 16pp and Heidelberg B1 Speedmaster presses at the Normanton, West Yorkshire-based printer.

Newsquest magazine publisher Darren Bruce said: "Acorn is a fine printer which provides an excellent quality of service for our titles.

"While maintaining the high standard of print, Acorn remains highly competitive in today's tough marketplace and is focused on efficiently catering for our print solutions."

The company uses FSC- and PEFC-certified stock. The Scottish Farmer is printed on a mixture of 115gsm Woodfree Gloss Art and 52gsm High Bright Improved Newsprint. TGO is printed on a 70gsm UPM Ultra Silk and 170gsm Woodfree Gloss Art.

Acorn Web Offset business development manager Matthew Carry said: "We pride ourselves on providing excellent customer service and satisfaction levels and this is reflected in our 10-year relationship with Newsquest."
