About Us

Printing Grays is a local printing and personalisation company serving businesses, organisations, students, events and residents across Grays and the wider Thurrock area. We provide everything from everyday business cards, flyers, documents, posters and booklets to banners, signs, T shirts, hoodies, workwear, wedding stationery and personalised gifts. We also provide photocopying, scanning, binding and finishing services. What makes our service practical is simple: we are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and bank holidays. We offer same day production and local delivery for suitable orders, have no minimum quantity, and can work with your own artwork or help create a design.

We Are a Local Grays Printing Company

Our business is built around the needs of people working and living in Grays. We understand that a local customer does not always need thousands of copies or several days of turnaround time. Sometimes a shop needs one replacement poster. A tradesperson may need business cards before meeting a new customer. A restaurant might need updated menus that day, while an event organiser could suddenly require extra badges or signs.

That is why Printing Grays accepts both small and larger orders. We serve customers around Grays town centre, Chafford Hundred, Little Thurrock, South Stifford, Stifford Clays, West Thurrock and surrounding parts of Thurrock.

Being local also allows us to provide collection and delivery options for customers who need their order quickly.

More Than Just Paper Printing

Although paper products are an important part of what we do, Printing Grays is not limited to traditional paper printing. Our customers often need several different products for the same business, event or project.

We can produce business stationery and promotional materials such as business cards, flyers, leaflets, booklets, brochures, folders, postcards, menus, certificates, invitations, tickets and stickers. Our garment services cover T shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, tote bags, caps, aprons and workwear.

We also provide banners, roller banners and different types of signs for shops, workplaces, promotions and events.

For personal occasions, customers can order wedding stationery and personalised gifts using their own photographs, names, dates, messages and artwork.

Same Day Service When Time Matters

Many customers contact us because they have a deadline rather than a flexible delivery date. An event may be taking place later that day, a business meeting might have been arranged unexpectedly or existing materials may contain information that needs correcting.

Our same day service is designed for these situations.

Depending on the product, quantity, stock, artwork and finishing requirements, suitable orders can be produced on the same day. Customers can then arrange collection or local delivery around Grays.

We always recommend sending the complete requirements as soon as possible. Knowing the size, quantity, material, artwork and exact deadline helps us identify the quickest suitable way to complete the job.

Open 24 Hours a Day, Seven Days a Week

Printing Grays does not operate only during standard Monday to Friday business hours. We are available 24 hours a day, including Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays.

Grays and the surrounding Thurrock area include retail, hospitality, transport, logistics and other businesses where working hours often extend beyond a traditional office day. Students also work towards evening and weekend deadlines, while weddings, parties and community events frequently happen on Saturdays and Sundays.

Our 24 hour service means customers can contact us when the requirement arises rather than waiting for the next normal working day.

Whether something is needed late in the evening, early the next morning or during a bank holiday, we can check what is possible for the required deadline.

No Minimum Order

We do not believe customers should have to order more than they actually need just to use a local service.

Printing Grays has no minimum order requirement. If you need one personalised T shirt, one replacement certificate, a few additional invitations or a small quantity of business cards, you can contact us.

The same applies to larger requirements. Businesses, schools, events and organisations can order higher quantities when needed.

This flexibility is particularly helpful when an existing order needs a small top up or when guest numbers, employee requirements or event arrangements change at short notice.

Helping Grays Businesses Get Things Done

Our customers include independent businesses, retailers, restaurants, tradespeople, offices, professional services, organisations and other companies working around Grays and Thurrock.

Grays town centre has its own mix of shops and services, while nearby Chafford Hundred and West Thurrock connect the town with a much larger retail and commercial area around Lakeside. The wider Thurrock area is also strongly connected with logistics, distribution and industry.

Different businesses therefore come to us for very different reasons. A retailer might need promotional posters and window materials. A restaurant could need menus and table items. A warehouse or contractor may require signs and workwear. An office might need presentation documents, folders and business cards.

Our aim is to provide these different products through one local service rather than making customers find a separate supplier for every requirement.

Supporting Students, Schools and Local Organisations

Printing Grays also works with students, schools, training providers, clubs, charities and community organisations.

Students may need coursework, reports, presentations, posters or binding, while schools and training providers can require certificates, handouts, event materials and educational documents.

Clubs and community organisations often need a different combination of products. This might include flyers to promote an activity, banners for the venue, T shirts for volunteers and certificates for participants.

Our no minimum order approach is useful for smaller groups because quantities can be based on the actual number of people attending rather than a fixed bulk requirement.

Supporting Events from Planning to the Day Itself

Events can involve far more printed and personalised material than people initially expect. Before an event, there may be invitations, flyers and promotional posters. On the day, organisers can need signs, badges, lanyards, programmes, tickets, table materials and banners.

We help with business events, conferences, community activities, parties, weddings, school events and other local occasions.

Last minute changes are common. An attendee may be added, a table number can change or another directional sign might suddenly be required. Our same day and 24 hour availability gives organisers a local option when those changes happen close to the event.

Wedding Stationery and Personalised Gifts

Personal occasions are another important part of our service.

For weddings, we can help couples with save the date cards, invitations, RSVP cards, ceremony programmes, menus, place cards, table numbers, seating plans, welcome signs, favour tags and thank you cards. Designs can be coordinated so different pieces of wedding stationery follow the same theme.

Our personalised gift service allows customers to use their own photographs, names, messages and artwork on suitable products. Options can include mugs, T shirts, cushions, tote bags, keychains, coasters, frames and other personalised items.

These products can be created for birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, weddings, family celebrations, leaving gifts and business occasions.

Your Design or Our Design

Some customers come to us with finished artwork that is ready to use. Others know what they want to say but have no design at all. We work with both.

If your artwork is complete, you can send the file together with the required dimensions, quantity and product details.

If you need design support, send us your logo, wording, photographs, preferred colours and an explanation of what you want. Our team can help prepare suitable artwork for the product.

This applies whether you are ordering a simple business card, a promotional flyer, an event sign, personalised clothing or wedding stationery.

Collection and Local Delivery Around Grays

Customers can arrange collection once their order is complete, with same day collection available for suitable urgent jobs.

We can also arrange local delivery around Grays town centre, Chafford Hundred, Little Thurrock, South Stifford, Stifford Clays, West Thurrock and nearby parts of Thurrock.

Local delivery can be particularly useful for shops, workplaces and event venues where leaving the premises to collect an order is difficult.

For urgent delivery, we recommend providing the full address and required delivery time when placing the order so production and travel time can be considered together.

Why We Keep Our Service Flexible

Printing requirements are rarely identical. One customer may need a single personalised item while another needs materials for an entire company. One order may have a week’s notice, while another may be required within hours.

Printing Grays is structured around that difference.

We offer same day service where suitable, remain open 24/7, accept small quantities and provide design help when artwork is not ready. Customers can arrange collection or ask about local delivery.

Most importantly, we try to understand what the finished item is actually needed for. Knowing whether something is for a shop opening, business meeting, wedding, school event or personal gift helps us provide a service that fits the real requirement.
