A2–A0+ • high volumes • fast production
Large-format technical document printing A2–A0+
We print technical drawings, maps and project documentation in high volumes. Two Océ ColorWave 900 printers enable parallel production, and drawings can be folded to A4 and prepared for filing as part of the same process.
Production capacity for large documentation packages
Large-format construction printing requires readable lines, correct scale and efficient finishing of thousands of sheets. We handle individual drawings, revision packages and mass printing of complete disciplines or volumes. Before production, we confirm formats, colour, copy quantities, sequence and folding requirements.
With correctly prepared files, our two Océ ColorWave 900 machines provide a combined capacity of up to approximately 900 A0 drawings per hour. Actual speed depends on format, coverage, file count and preparation, and the required finishing operations.
What do we print in large format?
Technical drawings
Architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, road and infrastructure documentation.
Maps and plans
Design maps, site plans, utility diagrams, networks and location drawings.
High-volume documentation
Hundreds or thousands of sheets for handovers, archives, general contractors and site teams.
A2–A0+ printing scope
- black-and-white and colour printing from PDF files
- A2, A1, A0 and sheets longer than standard A0
- multiple copies of one drawing or varied production packages
- automatic folding of sheets down to A4
- application of archival filing strips
- sorting by drawing number, discipline, volume and production package
- combining drawings with A4/A3 documentation in complete sets
- agreed collection of files and delivery of finished materials
To preserve scale and print quality, PDFs should be supplied at the intended sheet size. Before a mass-production run, we can agree a sample or check a representative file package.
From file to finished drawing
Package review
We check file count, formats, page settings, scale and required completion time.
Production plan
Materials are divided into batches with agreed sequence, copies, colour and finishing.
Printing and folding
Two ColorWave 900 printers run in parallel and automatically fold sheets to A4.
Assembly and delivery
We add filing strips, sort drawings, pack production batches and organise transport.
Frequently asked questions
How should a 1:1 scale PDF be prepared?
The PDF page size should match the intended sheet and the export from design software must preserve scale and print area. State the required scale clearly in the order.
Are drawings folded automatically?
Yes. Drawings can be automatically folded to A4, which speeds up high-volume assembly and provides a repeatable layout.
Can filing strips be added for binders?
Yes. We apply archival filing strips so a folded drawing can be stored together with A4 records.
Do you work nights and weekends?
For demanding projects agreed in advance, 24/7 production can be organised. This is not a blanket service for every order; availability is confirmed after reviewing files, volume and deadline.
