Our History

Printwise is the digital and litho print division of Shanowen Files Ltd. and has a wealth of experience in medical file and manilla folder manufacturing.

The company was founded in 1991 by the O’Reilly family in Santry. It soon outgrew its original premises and moved to its current site in Shanowen Road in 1994. It is conveniently located just 5 minutes from the airport and the M1/M50.

Now employing 33 people from the surrounding area, it remains under the ownership and management of the founders.

 

Since our humble beginnings in 1991, our aim has always been to provide our customers with the highest quality printed products and file covers available. In the 27 years that have passed since, we like to think we’ve learnt a thing or two.
