multipart sets and our large format press can print and apply seals and
varnishes at one pass. Computer control ensures that the work is carried

folders and boxes.

History
Established as a printing business in 1770, the Caxton and Holmesdale
Press has been owned and managed by the Salmon family for over one hundred
years. The company has a proud tradition of serving the needs of Sevenoaks
and the surrounding area. As well as general work of all types, many and
varied books have been produced over the years for local authors and
organisations. The company has close links with local businesses and
produces magazines and prospectuses for several schools. The printing
works and sales office have always been based in the town, originally in
the historic Shambles area and today on Tubs Hill where it shares its
facilities with its sister company, J. Salmon Ltd., the well-known
publisher of post cards, calendars, books and other products.
