Erwins printed a 44pp catalogue for a fashion event held in December by graduating students.

The 15-staff firm created the job on a five-colour Komori Lithrone 28 and stitched it on a Muller Martini.

The catalogues were printed on EcoStar Silk, a 100% recycled stock provided by BJ Ball.

Erwins business development manager Victor Stranges said: "It's rare that printers in Melbourne are considered for this type of sponsorship aligned to their own industry so we were thrilled to be asked.

"The project was a wonderful process in that the artwork submitted came directly from the graduate designers themselves.

"We collaborated on the job and it was a great learning experience for the students in preparing their designs for a commercial printing process."
