Norwood began in the 1960’s as a specialist printer for the clothing and horticultural industries.
After many years of trialling unique UV printing techniques with light fast inks and proprietary weather proof substrates, our coloured plant tags gained worldwide attention. We have since become all things horticultural with the introduction of numerous (patented) plant tag stakes and the collection of royalties on behalf of plant breeders around the world.
Through our continued growth and distribution of printed products throughout Australia, New Zealand and the USA, our logistics expertise became the perfect platform to provide dedicated fulfilment services. State of the art capabilities for receiving, handling and tracking of third party goods allows us to ship thousands of orders annually to all corners of the globe.
We are committed to the continued training and development of our highly skilled staff and ongoing investment into advanced equipment and processes. Our custom built premises in Hallam, Australia contain restricted access and video surveillance throughout for enhanced security of customer goods, including various Australian Government Agencies.
Our philosophy is simple. True partnerships with customers are the foundation of our success. As our customers grow, so do we. We listen, we innovate, we look for improvements and we are constantly curious.
What We Offer
Our specialised print capabilities have extended into the production of other long-life products such as shelf strips, shelf wobblers, floor decals, banners, point of sale, packaging and large format custom signage.
We even assisted Note Printed Australia with the manufacture of polymer note currencies using our sophisticated UV printing equipment. Our commercial printing division has a dedicated team with extensive expertise in branding, marketing, merchandising and advertising.

Evolving the Market
Our Customers
We have been working with Norwood for as long as our business has been around, for 30 years. We probably grow upwards of 800 products and Norwood provides 90% of our labels.
Norwood has always treated us well, provided a good service, a quality product at a fair price.
Mark and Pilar Jackson
The benefit for us in having a business like Norwood that has its history in the horticulture industry is that they understand us as a customer well.
They understand the nuances of the industry and they do have a full service.
Alistair Pritchard
Norwood is an integral part of my business, a huge part. They are really fantastic, they never let me down. And always get the job done on time.
I couldn’t run my business without Norwood. And I know there is no other printer that can match what they deliver. I just can’t thank them enough to be honest. It’s been fantastic.

PP5.com.au
Largely, in Australia, plant pots and labels are made from PP5 plastic – a plastic that can be recycled over and over again. However, currently only 8% of this plastic found in plant pots gets recycled*. This is where we come in. We want to collect and recycle your PP5 plastic plant pots and labels and give them another plant pot life. Visit PP5.com.au for more info.

A Print Odyssey
Infusing satire with familiar filmic references, our video pays homage to Kubrick’s ‘2001: A Space Odyssey’ in order to reinforce the Human versus Machine conflict. Stressing the disconnect between the protagonist and the source of his “quest”, the tagline “Print without Drama” emphasises our goal to be a leading print and print service provider.

Bringing print to life
One of our key goals is to help customers bring their brands to life with print. So we decided to apply this to our business and create a new marketing strategy built on one mission: to show the world just how much you can achieve with print.
