Handwork

Overview: Hand assembling the finishing touch to a project
What is Handwork?
To give you the full look and feel you’re after, any finishing touches that can’t be created by machine are completed with our own two hands. Whatever it might be, we can probably do it. This includes collating papers, hand trimming, folding, and gluing - anything that requires special added attention to get the project just right.
Handwork Benefits
Save time and money to get a project out the door
The project is immediately ready for its intended use
Handwork Capabilities
High volume collating, inserting, capacity folders, easels, corners, CD hubs, etc.
“I have used many other print finishing partners, but Phillips is the most trustworthy and my go-to for honest, quality work. I never feel like I am second rate.”
