Albarosa Print · part of Albarosa ApS

Marketing you can hold in your hand.

Business cards, flyers, A-frames, van decals. We design them, and we get them printed properly — by a print shop that isn't quietly adding 40% to your invoice.

This is the physical side of marketing: the stuff you staple to a post, hand to a customer, and park on the pavement outside the job. Cheap, physical, and it still works — as long as it doesn't look like it was made in Word.

What we design and print

All of it designed by us, printed by a shop we've checked, delivered to your door or your job site.

Business cards

The one piece of print every trade still needs. Proper card stock, readable phone number, your actual services on the back. Not a template with a stock photo of a handshake.

Flyers & door hangers

One offer, one deadline, one phone number. Designed to survive a letterbox and a wet doorstep, and to be worth picking up off the mat.

A-frames & pavement signs

The cheapest advertising space in your town is the two square metres outside the job you're already on. Readable from across the street, weighted so it survives the wind.

Yard signs & banners

Stake one at every finished job. The neighbours see who did the work, and the sign keeps selling long after your van has left.

Van decals & window graphics

Your van is already driving past thousands of people a week. Cut vinyl, correct sizing for the panel, applied without bubbles by someone who does it for a living.

Branded workwear

Printed shirts, hoodies and hats. A customer opening the door to a branded shirt behaves differently than one opening it to a stranger in a plain jumper.

How a print job actually runs

You tell us what you need 15 mins

A call or a message. What the job is, roughly how many you want, and when you need them in your hands. If you don't know the quantities, we'll tell you what businesses your size normally order.

We design it 3–5 days

You get a proof to look at. Two rounds of changes are included, and we text or email you the moment a new version is ready. Nothing goes near a printer until you say the word.

We place the print order 3–10 days

We get quotes from printers we've used before, check the spec so you're not paying for the wrong paper, and hand you the quote. You approve it, it gets printed, it arrives.

We don't own a printing press. That's the point.

We're not trying to sell you our machine time, so we've got no reason to talk you into 5,000 flyers you'll never hand out.

We get the quotes, you see them. We ask two or three printers we've worked with, and you get the actual numbers. If one of them is cheaper, that's the one we use.
You pay the printer directly. We don't mark up print. We charge for design and for managing the job, and that number is agreed before we start.
We check the spec, not just the price. A cheap quote usually means thinner stock, no lamination, or a cutting tolerance that eats your logo. We read that part so you don't have to.
We fix the artwork. Bleed, margins, colour profile, resolution. Most print disasters are a file problem, and they get caught before the order goes in, not after 2,000 cards arrive with your phone number trimmed off.
If a printer messes up, we deal with them. You don't spend your Friday afternoon arguing about a reprint.

Straight answer on price

Design is quoted per job, up front, before anything starts. Print is whatever the printer charges — you see the quote and you pay them.

A typical first order for a one-van business is business cards plus a couple of A-frames, and that lands in the low hundreds of euros all in, including our design work.

If your job is small enough that you'd be better off with an online print service and no designer, we'll tell you that instead of quoting you.

Danish company. California clients.

Worth being straight about this, because it's the first thing people ask when they hear the accent on the phone.

We're registered in Denmark, not the US. Albarosa ApS, CVR 46542193, Sønderborg. There's no American office and no American subsidiary, and we're not going to pretend otherwise on a website.
Our clients are in California and the states around it. Contractors, trades and local service businesses — the same people we work with at home, doing the same job in a bigger market.
Your print is printed near you. We don't own a press anywhere, so we quote printers local to your delivery address. A job for a San Diego client gets printed in Southern California and delivered like any local order. Nothing crosses the Atlantic except the artwork file.
The time difference is real, so we work around it. Denmark is nine hours ahead of California. In practice you send something at the end of your day and it's answered by the time you wake up. When a job needs a live conversation we take the call in your afternoon, which is our evening — that's our problem to solve, not yours.

Why we text from a US number

A print job runs on small, time-sensitive messages: your proof is ready, the printer wants a decision on stock, delivery lands Thursday. Email is too slow for that and a nine-hour gap makes phone calls awkward.

Texting our California clients from a Danish +45 number doesn't work. It arrives looking like a scam, it costs the client to reply, and plenty of US handsets filter it outright.

So we use a US number, registered properly for business messaging, and we only text clients who asked us to. Messages go out inside 8am–9pm in your local time, never ours. Reply STOP and they stop.

Before you ask

The questions we get every week.

If yours isn't here, the chat widget in the corner goes to a real person during office hours.

No. Print jobs are sold on their own. Plenty of people come to us for cards and A-frames and never buy anything digital, and that's fine.

Only if you ask us to. If you tick the SMS box on the contact form, we'll text you about your quote, your proofs and your delivery — that's it, usually two to six messages per job. Reply STOP at any time and the texts stop immediately. Message and data rates may apply. See our SMS terms and Privacy Policy.

You do, once the invoice is paid. You get the print-ready PDFs and the source files, so any printer on earth can reprint them without coming back to us. We're not holding your logo hostage.

Design is usually 3 to 5 working days from the point we have your details and logo. Printing depends on what it is: cards and flyers are typically 3 to 5 days, signage and vehicle work closer to two weeks.

Yes, and we'd rather you did. If all you have is a low-resolution JPEG off an old website, we'll redraw it so it prints cleanly at any size, and tell you the cost before we do.

Albarosa ApS is a Danish company, registered in Sønderborg (CVR 46542193). We don't have a US office. Design work happens wherever you are, and we run print jobs for clients in California and the western states as well as across Denmark and Europe — always using a printer local to the delivery address, so nothing ships across an ocean. For our California clients that means a printer in California, and delivery times no different from a local shop.
