About Us

Acorn Clearprint started out in the mid 1980’s under the name Acorn Maltone.

In 2012 acorn maltone merged with Preston base printing company clearprint labels. This merge brought additional label presses to Tuxford, giving increased capacity and further flexibility. With the merge there also came a new name, Acorn Clearprint Ltd., which incorporates elements of both company names to embody ‘continuity’ rather than ‘new start’, which now gives you Acorn Clearprint Ltd.

The team at Acorn Clearprint have over 30 years’ experience and during that time we have had the pleasure of producing labels for a wide range of companies covering a huge range of industry sectors, including some very well-known corporate brands….

There has been a continued move to improve all areas of the company and in 2004 we achieved BRC Global Standard – Packaging and other Packaging Material which we retained for over 15 years. However in February 2022 we moved our Quality Management System over to the ISO 9001 standard as we felt that this certification would work better for the progression of the company.

To give you extra confidence, our in house studio manager who would be your first point of contact has worked for the company since 1993. His dedication gives you a fantastic wealth of knowledge dealing with your new artwork and the technical requirements for your labels to deliver great results on you products.

ISO 9001 Certification

At Acorn Clearprint we acknowledge that, in the modern era, simply having a press and competitive pricing is not enough to satisfy buyers from all industries.

Within areas such as food packaging and pharmaceuticals there is an understandable demand on manufacturers to provide evidence of quality control and traceability of raw materials.

With this becoming an ever increasing requirement we attained the food hygiene certification within the packaging sector in 2004 and have consistently achieved the highest standards required to retain the certification.

Although we have changed our certification from BRCGS to ISO 9001, the highest standards are still maintained throughout our processes.
