Pooki Presses
We love these beautifully crafted and eye catching presses. Pooki Presses make printmaking presses which are as stylish as they are effective. As Pooki are based in the Forest of Dean, all their presses are built in the UK. Pooki Presses have a strong reputation for connecting with local businesses and resources. As such, all of their presses make use of locally sourced materials such as sustainably sourced birchwood. They are not just a considerate company, though, as they also are superb at what they do. In these tabletop presses, they have made something portable and lightweight that can be just as useful on the kitchen table as in a studio.
High Quality, Long Lasting Print Presses
One of the things which appears most striking when you get your hands on a Pooki press is that these pieces of kit are extremely light. In fact, they weigh in at less than 8kg. This means that they are very portable. Not only are they light, but they are also affordable, meaning that you won't need to blow your budget to be able to engage in some professional quality printmaking. Each one of the printmaking presses has been hand assembled out of pieces which have been expertly engineered and precision laser cut. They have been built for high performance and for longevity. High quality zinc plated fixtures and nylon wear resistant fittings enable a smooth movement, as well as a reliable rigidity.
For Professionals and Amateurs
These presses are so good that they are becoming extremely popular with amateurs and professionals alike. They are often used for lino printing, relief and wood block. The presses are supplied with a premium press blanket. On top of that, they are delivered in fully recyclable packaging, which keeps the process as eco friendly as possible. Printmakers around the world are loving Pooki Presses and it is easy to see why.
