What makes PCL different
Fast turnaround backed by UK manufacturing
When deadlines are tight, reliable supply matters. PCL manufactures self adhesive label materials in the UK, allowing us to maintain consistent quality, dependable stock availability and fast turnaround times, including next working day delivery on most orders placed before 12pm.
By keeping production local, we are able to support commercial printers, production teams and businesses with shorter lead times, responsive service and reliable label supply across digital, HP Indigo and litho print environments. You can explore the full PCL product range online.
