Riley Dunn & Wilson hold regular Open Days in Ireland, at which you can view our extensive services capability and see examples of our binding and materials including various samples of our comprehensive range of bookbinding styles, rebinding, repair, restoration, boxing and paper conservation.

You can also view our RDW Online lettering system for your journal binding.

If you have any samples of items in your collection that you need advice about, or if you would like to receive estimates of suitable treatment costs, please feel free to bring them with you.

As part of the recently celebrated centenary, Riley Dunn & Wilson in Falkirk, are pleased to announce that we are re-introducing and extending our renowned bookbinding and paper conservation services to Eire, beginning in May 2010 with services into the greater Dublin area.

To launch the Spicer Hallfield digital art books range, RDW Digital will be present at the SWPP (Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers) Convention.

Come and see us on stand 190 at any time between Friday 15th January and Sunday 17th January at the Hammersmith Novotel. We’ll be showing our full range of photograph albums and samples of the huge variety of finishing options we can offer. Just for the convention, we’ll have some special offers available, and our friendly staff will be on hand to help with any queries you might have. We’d love to meet you, but if time is of the essence, simply pop in and grab one of our brochures!

We were delighted to be short listed in the PrintWeek Quality Awards. Judged by a panel of leading print buyers, the Awards are widely recognised as the mark of quality and the highest accolade within the print and print finishing industry.

A body of our work was judged not only on the quality of the finished product, but also on the range of processes used to add value.

Managing Director, Charles Dunn said:

“Printweek’s Printing Industry Awards are the most prestigious and high profile in the industry and to be short listed is a graphic determination on our part of our commitment to and achievement of excellence. We are justifably proud to have been short listed this year and receiving this sort of acclaim.”

Whilst we did not take away the ultimate prize we are extremely pleased to have been shortlisted, an achievement we hope to build on next year.

Major spend will lead to full automation

An investment of more than £65000 will lead to a fully automated lettering service at Riley Dunn & Wilson allowing binding requirements to go directly from customers to RDW production systems.

The new system will allow titles and binding requirements to be entered online; speeding up the ordering process, reducing incidents of human error and allowing customers to better keep track of their budgets.

No more binding slips!

RDWOnline.co.uk is the portal that allows you to input your binding requirements. Titles and instructions are stored meaning regularly bound titles can be selected at the click of a button for future binding. Information is fed straight to computer systems that drive our lettering machines, ensuring that your exact specifications are carried out.

The introduction of system three lettering machines in both binderies means the quality of lettering will increase as well as the consistency and speed of output.

General Manager of the Huddersfield bindery, Philip Stephenson, said:

“We are all thrilled at the leap forward in production the new system will give us. It brings benefits for customers and because we will be able to process more work, without losing quality, it has obvious benefits for us too.”

The new system is still being tested but we are able to set up accounts for new customers in anticipation of the new system going live. For more details please contact your area representative or e-mail: customerservices@rdw.co.uk
