Making the right choice shouldn’t be difficult.
We believe that making the right choice and opting for sustainable textile printing should be easy. We are textile printing experts when it comes to using inks that are water-based, meaning plasticised inks shouldn’t be needed. We also have organic, ethically sourced cotton options for all our products and apply the highest standard to our production.
Textiles that don’t cost the Earth.
The best work with the best.

Ben Bristow
DirectorUnderstanding how to get somewhere starts with understanding where you are! If Ben had known where he was when he first took charge at Paul Bristow’s the company would not be where it is today, but a combination of youthful ignorance and confidence combined to grow the business to its current position. But now more than ever we need to understand where we are and importantly what we are doing to the environment. Ben now leads our efforts to continuously look for more sustainable ways to manufacture textile merchandise in the UK.
