About Us
Longbottom Digital Papers - the No. 1 suppliers of the finest papers for digital media in Australia.
Longbottom Digital Papers was established in 1983 and is a wholly Australian owned business. We are celebrating 28 years in business this year. We started in Milperra and soon needed bigger premises and moved to Peakhurst into a warehouse then expanding to the warehouse next door in 1998. To keep up with the ever growing digital world we needed to again expand so in 2005 we moved into our new premises in Padstow purpose built for Longbottom's needs.
Our Friendly Staff is very knowledgeable in paper and printing and we all have different strengths but between us we share a total 204 years in this industry. Just about the time the patent went through for CARBON PAPER. What a coincidence. Of course none of us are over 21... much...
Our company goal is still the same as all those years ago, to supply a comprehensive range of quality media, and to meet the standards of reproduction required by our clients in the digital printing world. Our stock availability and efficient service is second to none and we feel it's just as important as the quality of the media.
We deliver solutions for digital printing, no matter what technology, you can be rest assured we have a solution.
Our papers have won numerous places in the National Print Awards.
We do extensive research on our digital papers before adding them to our exclusive range to make sure they are of the highest quality and will perform and create the perfect printed job no matter how big or small.
Our range of media is sourced from paper mills with the highest environmental credentials using sustainable forests, recycling and green-e-certified energy. You can view our environmental papers online and download data sheets.
We have completed and achieved our FSC Certification in 2009 and now have also become LOW Carbon certified in September 2011. We are doing our best to help the environment.
Printers and designers alike can find all their digital needs through our website, but if you need anything beyond what is displayed we would be glad to help trace it down or suggest a substitute that will be as close to the original as possible.
Longbottom Digital Papers continues to meet the new and unknown demands of the digital print market and works to create partnerships with clients for the mutual benefits of successful business.
"U&I Direct and Longbottom Paper have been supporting one another's business for some four (4) years now and enjoy our relationship together. Colin, Therese and their team consistently deliver for us time and again.
"We utilise a series of their stocks including the Mondi range, as well as McCoy Satin and the various grades/grammages are real performers.
"What I do also appreciate is that Colin is always bringing new products or suggestions to our business regarding our clients and the applications we produce for them. We have a collaborative approach and he consistently over the years has brought to the table new stocks or products, coupled with a new idea on how to use them with our clients and that pro-active approach goes a long way with us.
"Price is not my dominant decision making perspective. Yes, it's a factor in any purchase, but my decisions are assessed on value - be it consistency of product quality which Longbottom's provide in spades with their range and then complemented by the fantastic service from Colin calling on us, through to his internal sales and customer service team and even on through to the delivery driver who works in best with your production schedules, knowing best when to make deliveries. The attention to the 'little things' is tip top!"
