LPC Printing Limited was founded in 1964 by David Lee in humble surroundings in Lyndhurst - the capital of the New Forest. Beginning life as Lyndhurst Printing Company and consisting of one duplicating machine the company moved to Holbury within the first year and a few months later to The Old Bakery in Blackfield. The company traded from that site until the move to its present location in 1973.
1973
Printing was somewhat different in those days consisting of mainly black and white or the occasional spot colour to enhance the item.
1979 saw the next generation enter the business as Nick Lee joined from school. Embarking on an apprenticeship that would see him learn all the aspect of the trade as it was then. Nick moved into estimating soon after.
1986
Having survived on single and two colour presses the company invested in its first four colour press in 1986 along with the first of the studio systems that formed the backstay of systems today.
1994
Following an MBO in 1994 Nick took the reins as Managing Director.
2000
Technology was the main driver for investment throughout the period and LPC now boasted a stable of 5 colour presses and a complete array of finishing equipment.
2004
Following an MBO in 2003 the company, led by a board of Nick, Jason & Kathie, embarked on an investment programme totalling some £2 million, that would lead to the installation of Heidelberg presses, including a 10 colour perfecting press, new finishing equipment and a complete new digital section.
2005
During 2005, and with staff numbers around 58 LPC made another major appointment and Guy Bosworth - Commercial Director, joined the organisation and set about revolutionising the customer side of the company with the formation of the Customer Services team - consisting of Account Managers, Marketing Executives and Estimators.
2007
With changes to pioneer the emerging JDF technology, continual investment in technology and a highly skilful workforce turnover approached £5 million during 2007 and LPC cemented its position as one of the South's leading print and communications organisations.
2013
LPC continues to expand & as of November will be investing in another 5 colour to make production even quicker.
