Custom Printed Compliment Slips

Compliment slips offer a professional alternative to formal letters, providing a simple and effective way to send short, handwritten messages. This thoughtful form of communication helps strengthen customer and client relationships while adding a touch of professionalism. Your slips can carry the same logo, colours and contact details as your letterheads and business cards with our compliment slip printing.

Fully customizable in terms of size and paper finish, our compliment slips can feature your logo, company name, and contact details. You can either supply your own artwork or take advantage of our design service to create a high-quality, finished product.

Getting the Most From Your Compliment Slips

A simple piece of business stationery, compliment slips are very useful. Include one with samples, invoices, orders and even with a corporate gift. The personal touch is given without the formal nature of a full letter.

We print your slips in our standard 1/3 A4 size (99 x 210mm), which fits neatly into a DL envelope. Other sizes and shapes can be catered for however; just let our team know. Our slips are printed on 100gsm offset paper, allowing for the addition of a handwritten note or two should you require.

Foil blocking can add an extra special touch to your compliment slips by highlighting your logo or company name in metallic foil for a more premium look and feel.

Many customers order compliment slips along with the Letterheads and Business Cards so everything can look consistent. We can design your stationery using your supplied artwork or our design service and we keep everything to match for your complete stationery set. We aim to have most orders ready within 2–5 days.
