The Fonts

Do you do your own designs?

Yes we design our beer fonts

What's the process in designing your own fonts?

Our designer gets an idea, sketches it and then shows the rest of the management team. This initial concept then has to pass several tests:

	Would it appeal to the customers?
	Does it integrate our 'classic' lines?
	Where does it fit into our range?
	Can it be made better either aesthetically or practically?
	Will it cast? (Many designs, whilst looking superb, cannot be cast because of the shape)

Are they Registered Designs?

Yes, all our fonts are registered designs

How long to create a design for us?

If you want a font of your own but are not sure what the shape should be we are more than happy to sit down with you and convert your knowledge of your business into a font that suits your requirements - this could take several weeks.

If you have an idea of your own we can convert that into a model in about two weeks from acceptance.

To modify one of our fonts to suit you it would again take about two weeks to make a model.

If we wanted our own design could you keep this confidential?

Unlike most suppliers we do everything in-house and so your designs and plans stay strictly with us.

Do you have your own pattern shop?

Yes we do.

How long before you can tool up to make a production run?

Once the customer has agreed the model it will take about eight weeks to get into production.

How many can you make?

On a one-shift system we can produce about 1000 castings a week
