The BPIF has outlined a list of priorities for policymakers to help grow the print industry over the next two years.

The organisation released its Priorities for Print survey on July 9, communicating the top ten ways the industry is currently feeling that policy is preventing industry growth, and what action could be taken to improve the situation.

It addressed myths within the businesses and highlighted that print is sustainable, credible and innovative, and the key role it plays in the UK economy.

Finally, Priorities for Print includes stories of successful visits by MPs to printers in their constituencies and calls on policymakers to learn more about the vital local and national contributions printing companies make.

BPIF CEO, Charles Jarrold, said: “The printing industry, and manufacturing more widely, are strong and secure foundations on which policy and decision-makers can depend to achieve economic growth.

“Yet the policy levers chosen by Government are crucial if we are to continue to be a valuable contributor to a UK success story.

“Our members have been clear in their message to decision-makers: help us to help you. Employment, investment and innovation are key to growth. We urge the Government to take heed of our top ten ways it can support our industry over the next two years.”
