Professional print design for brochures, leaflets, flyers, catalogues and corporate literature, serving businesses and organisations across Scotland since 2005.
Good print-based communications material starts with good design and a clear understanding of how your business needs to communicate.
At G3 Creative, we design brochures, catalogues, leaflets, flyers, annual reports, corporate literature, posters and stationery for businesses and organisations across Glasgow and Scotland.
Established in 2005, we combine experienced graphic design with practical knowledge of print production. From organising complex information and developing layouts to selecting paper stocks and finishes, we consider every detail to ensure your printed materials represent your brand professionally.
You'll work directly with the experienced designer creating your project, with straightforward advice, carefully prepared artwork and support with print production if required.
Whether you need a single leaflet, a company brochure or a coordinated range of marketing materials, we'll help you find the right design and print solution for your audience, objectives and budget.

Professional brochure and catalogue design for businesses, visitor attractions, tourism organisations and other organisations that need to present information clearly and effectively.
From company brochures and product catalogues to visitor guides, annual reports and multi-page publications, we create layouts that make information easy to follow and give your content the space it deserves.
We consider page structure, typography, photography, graphics and paper stock to produce publications that work as a whole, from the front cover to the final page.
Clear, engaging leaflet and flyer design for promotions, events, exhibitions, direct mail, tourism and everyday business marketing.
Whether you need a simple one-page flyer or a more detailed folded leaflet, we'll organise the information, establish a strong visual hierarchy and make sure your key message is easy to understand.
We can advise on suitable formats, folding options, paper stocks and finishes to help your printed material work effectively for its intended audience.
Well-designed corporate literature helps businesses and organisations present information professionally and consistently.
We design company profiles, annual reports, tender documents, presentation folders, newsletters, corporate publications and other business literature.
Where a project contains detailed information, we can help structure the content and establish a clear hierarchy, making complex material easier to navigate without losing important detail.
Poster and promotional design for business campaigns, exhibitions, events, visitor attractions and public information.
From A3 posters to large-format display graphics, we consider where the design will be seen, how far away the audience will be and what needs to stand out first.
The result is artwork designed around its purpose, viewing environment and intended audience.
Business cards, letterheads, compliment slips and branded envelopes that carry your visual identity consistently across everyday business communications.
We pay attention to typography, layout, colour, paper and finishing so that even a simple printed item feels considered and professional.
Your printed materials should look and feel like they belong to your business. Consistent use of your visual identity, typography, colour and imagery helps customers recognise your brand across brochures, leaflets, stationery and other communications.
If you need a new identity or want to develop your existing branding before producing printed materials, visit our Branding and Logo Design page.
Some projects need more than a finished layout. Depending on your requirements, we can also provide art direction, photography, illustration and copywriting to bring the different elements together.
From developing the visual approach and selecting photography to creating bespoke illustrations and shaping headlines, we can help coordinate the creative work needed for a consistent, effective finished piece.
We'll agree the scope of work with you at the outset, so you know what's included in your design and artwork costs.
Where sustainability matters to your project, we can help you make informed choices about paper, materials, printing processes and finishing.
Depending on the requirements, options may include:
FSC-certified paper: stocks sourced through responsible forest-management systems.
Recycled paper: recycled stocks selected to suit the design and intended use.
Alternative papers: distinctive materials and paper stocks that offer different textures and characteristics.
Seaweed-infused paper: an alternative paper material with a distinctive natural texture.
Lower-impact ink options: vegetable-based or low-VOC inks where appropriate for the printing process.
Responsible production: considering print quantities, materials and finishing to help avoid unnecessary waste.
The right choice depends on the job. We'll help you balance appearance, durability, environmental considerations and budget, rather than recommending a material simply because it sounds sustainable.
To help you plan your budget, the following are typical prices for selected print design projects.

Good print design needs to work on the press as well as on screen. Our experience of design and print production helps us consider the practical requirements of each project, from the choice of printing process and paper stock to finishing and the intended use of the finished piece.
Once your design is approved, we can manage print production through trusted UK printing partners or supply high-resolution, print-ready PDFs for you to send to your preferred printer.
Digital printing is often a practical choice for shorter print runs, quick turnarounds and personalised materials.
It can suit flyers, leaflets, conference programmes, brochures and direct mail when you need smaller quantities or flexibility over reprints.
Lithographic printing is often well suited to larger print runs where consistent colour reproduction and economies of scale are important.
It can be particularly suitable for larger brochure runs, catalogues, magazines, annual reports and corporate publications, with a wide range of paper stocks, specialist inks and finishing options available depending on the printer and specification.
We'll help you choose the most suitable printing process for your quantity, format, timescale and budget.
From posters and banners to exhibition display graphics and signage, we prepare large-format artwork for its intended size and viewing distance.
We consider dimensions, resolution, legibility and installation requirements to help ensure the design reproduces clearly at the finished scale.
The right finishing can add durability, texture or distinction to a printed piece. Depending on the design and production method, options may include:
Die-cutting: creating custom shapes for brochures, folders and promotional materials.
Embossing and debossing: adding raised or recessed details to covers, stationery and premium publications.
Foil blocking: introducing metallic detail to selected design elements.
Lamination: matt, gloss or soft-touch finishes for appearance and protection.
Spot UV and specialist coatings: highlighting selected areas or adding a particular surface effect.
We'll advise on the finishes appropriate to your project, taking account of the desired appearance, practical use and overall budget.
Standard A4 and A5 formats work well for many brochures and leaflets, but other sizes, formats and folding methods can help a printed piece stand out or make information easier to navigate.
We design folded leaflets, concert and event programmes, brochures, presentation folders and other promotional materials, considering panel dimensions, fold positions, pagination and how the finished item will open and be handled.
Where appropriate, we can explore custom sizes, bespoke folding and die-cut formats to suit the brief.

G3 Creative works with businesses, tourism and heritage organisations, destinations and public sector clients across Glasgow, the West of Scotland and further afield.
We provide a direct point of contact throughout the project, from the initial design brief and concept through to artwork preparation and print production where required.
Whether you need a small batch of promotional leaflets or a coordinated set of business publications, we'll recommend an approach suited to your audience, timescale and budget.
We've been designing for print since 2005, working on projects across commercial, tourism, heritage, education and public sector settings.
You'll deal directly with the experienced designer creating your work. That means clear communication, practical advice and no account-manager handovers between departments.
We understand how design decisions affect the finished printed piece, from typography, colour and bleed to paper weights, printing processes and specialist finishes.
We'll help you make informed choices about formats, materials and production options, with the agreed scope and costs explained before work begins.
What is the difference between digital and lithographic printing?
Digital printing is often suited to shorter runs and quick turnarounds. Lithographic printing can be more economical for larger quantities and may offer additional options for specialist inks and stocks. The best choice depends on the job, quantity and specification.
What paper stock should I choose for a brochure?
The right paper depends on the brochure's purpose, page count, imagery, brand and budget. We can advise on paper weights, stocks and finishes and arrange samples where appropriate, helping you understand how the finished brochure will look and feel.
Can you manage both design and physical printing?
Yes. We can manage print production through trusted UK printing partners or provide print-ready, high-resolution PDFs for your chosen printer. The options and costs will be agreed as part of the project.
Can you advise on printing and finishing options?
Yes. We can advise on paper stock, weight, printing method, folding and finishing, taking account of how the item will be used, the quantity required, your timescale and your budget. Samples can be arranged where appropriate.
What are your design and artwork rates?
We normally quote on a project basis so you know the cost before work begins.
Where an hourly rate is more appropriate, our hourly rates are as follows:
Design: £60 / Artwork: £45
