Magnet Harlequin, which will celebrate 30 years' service to the UK graphic arts industry next year, impressed the judges with its high-quality, value-driven business model, which has fuelled double-digit growth for the past two years. Uxbridge-based Magnet's success has been built on the solid foundations of integrity and technology. Its recently introduced monitoring programme reports performance levels back to customers, reminding both them and Magnet's employees of the excellent quality, service and value it offers. In the past year, the company, which has always strived to remain at the forefront of pre-press technology, has also launched Maglabs, a wholly-owned subsidiary that has gone on to develop and champion emerging technology across multiple business functions. Magnet Harlequin's ability to streamline processes has saved hundreds of thousands of pounds and minimised speed-to-market for its clients. Thanks to its ongoing investment in talent, technology and innovation, it is also helping to "re-define pre-press provision" in the UK.
