Buying equiptment in the UK
Hey, I have been watching your videos for ages now and they are just so helpful! So thankyou
I want to turn my hobby into a small business but i'm stuggling to find where to buy the equiptment I need/I don't know which brands to trust.
What I want to ask is if you know of any good screen printing suppliers based in the UK?
I am willing to spend a fair amount of money to get a good set up, but I don't want to end up with rubbish equiptment because I didn't know who/where/which brand to buy!
Any advice or help you could give would be awesome. I wish I was in the US so I could get the ranar stuff, it looks so good!
Thanks,
Ruby

Re: Buying equiptment in the UK
Hey there thanks for posting on the Catspit Forum! I appreciate that. And it’s great to hear you’ve been a viewer for some time now. Thanks for watching!
I don’t have many connections in the UK but I do work with MacDermid Autotype. They make very good chemicals, emulsions, films and more.
Now they don’t have all the supplies like inks or equipment but I would trust their advice in the UK for suppliers.
Check them out and contact them. Let me know if they don’t respond or if you can’t get a decent answer. It’s a big corporation so sometimes I need to assist

Oh, I can ship RANAR equipment globally but the ocean freight can vary depending on the nearest port to you.
I hope this lead can help you.

Re: Buying equiptment in the UK
Thanks so much for replying! I'll definitely check that out and see what they say.
Oh that's good to know, I live just a few miles from Dover port so if it comes to it that could be an option.
Thanks again I'll let you know how it pans out

We don't have any dealers in the UK, but we are very experienced in shipping overseas. If you figure out exactly what equipment you are interested in, we can get a ocean freight quote for you. Shipping via air is possible, but very expensive.
Visit the Ranar FB page!

Hi,
Great vids Jonathan, i have found them very helpful as a beginner.
Ranar, out of interest could you tell me what the total cost would be
to ship the Elite 4 colour 4 station manual press to Southampton UK.
Keep up the good work guys.

If you need a quotation let me know by email. I don't get any credit if you buy from Ranar direct. But I do if you buy from Catspit I'm happy to help out and get an export quote for you.

Old thread but anywayRANAR wrote:We don't have any dealers in the UK, but we are very experienced in shipping overseas. If you figure out exactly what equipment you are interested in, we can get a ocean freight quote for you. Shipping via air is possible, but very expensive.
As I know Ranar have only two dealers in Europe one in France which didnt reply me back, one in Sweden from which is I think a little bit serious, and also in Russia but they dont speak english and I dont spek russian so I will probably import from the States. Time to time you can see here in EU on some adverts Vista series but very old and prices are like they are new.

Re: Buying equiptment in the UK
I have now prices from this Company in Sweden and they are exactly the same as in the States but I must pay additional 22% VAT that normal therefore the situation is slightly different and + shipping cost which can mess all together if they dont have some cheap possibilities.Let me know if you need any quotations for equipment. You can contact me through my website:

When I will have all together I will contact you also, for me it is significant only the final price and who knows maybe is from US cheaper I dont know.
