Barnard & Westwood | Fine Printers & Book Binders

Barnard & Westwood has a long and colourful history that began in 1921 when it was founded by a World War 1 survivor whose injuries meant he could no longer work in his previous trade as a hotel printer. He turned his hand to the niche market of high-quality printing, in which the firm still operates today. In 2003 the business acquired Keypoint Bookbinding, enabling the company to move into new territory. Hand case binding, book restoration, perfect binding and bespoke presentation case making were added to the printers’ already diverse range of services. Seven years later, the business relocated to their current home near King's Cross in Central London. Today, Barnard & Westwood is a 100% employee-owned enterprise, meaning staff all have a stake in the business and, consequently, its products. Thus, you can rest assured that each order is handled with the utmost care and attention.
