Graphic design studio with a beautiful collection of historic printing material. Always aiming for high quality output, with a strong focus on process, materials and human interaction.
We do custom-made creative printing projects and workshops, in our own studio, or even on location. With our heavy Heidelberg presses, we also provide letterpress printing services for fellow graphic designers and artists.

SUPERDRUK is an ‘analog print factory’, honouring, enjoying and educating the basics and history of printing techniques. We are mostly focussed on relief printing, with our collection of wood and lead type, and even the ability to lasercut, cnc or 3D print our own shapes. We try to put our analog machines to best use in a digital driven world, to combine both worlds into inspiring and exciting print projects.

 
 

The times they are a-changin’. The whole world is turning digital. Print colours are often hastily chosen on RGB screens and roll out of printers in a snap. Faster! Cheaper! Quick is the only option.


Is it really?

Our love for traditional slow printing techniques made us move mountains. Well, not exactly mountains… but tons and tons of lead type, cast iron letterpress machines and wood type cabinets.

Saving these beauties from the scrapyard one by one, we have gathered an impressive collection of hands-on printing materials. The studio became an exhausting self-taught adventure, while looking like a small museum of craftsmanship.

The limitations of slow printing, combined with contemporary techniques and insights, challenge us to rethink the design process. Superdruk is more than a print shop: it is a bold playground for graphic experimentation and collaboration. Embracing the past, with eyes on the future.

Graphic Design

Our passion lies in graphic design & typography. We want to be proud of what we print. Our machines may be old, our ideas never are.

We are graphic designers at heart, but never felt the urge to stick to our computerscreens. With also a background in product design and advertising, we tend to see creative possibilities and opportunities. We want to put our hands and techniques to good use. SUPERDRUK is not a regular printing company. We prefer to work on a personal level, so projects can evolve and benefit from exchanging ideas.

The studio is run by Stoffel Van den Bergh > @dastof.
