Are you still using messy carbon paper? If so, it might be time you upgraded to our A5 NCR pads. No one wants to be that person making their customer wait while they write up an invoice or delivery note. Instead, take advantage of our full-colour invoice pads which give you multiple copies of the same information in one go. It’s the best way to ensure you focus more attention on your customers and business, and less time writing up multiples of boring – albeit important – documents!
As well as making you look more reputable, our 2 part NCR pads can bring more efficiency to your business. All of our carbonless pads are printed bespoke to your company’s design to reflect the professionalism and quality of your company. Our NCR products will also help establish brand recognition with your customers.
Not only that but all our A5 NCR products are printed on 80gsm NCR paper measuring 148mm x 210mm. This makes them perfectly sized for carrying in your laptop bag, while still being able to hold lots of information. We offer a choice of 2 part and 3 part NCR allowing you to have 2 or 3 copies of the information. All our pads hold 50 sets per pad, meaning if you order a 3-part A5 NCR, it would have 150 sheets glued together giving you a total of 50 printed receipt pads, accident forms, purchase orders and everything in between!
We also have A4 NCR Pads which are twice the size, A6 NCR Pads half of the size and smaller DL NCR Pads, all delivered nationwide.
NCR pads are handy business tools that can copy information for you. Not so long ago, a lot of businesses used carbonised paper which involved using an ordinary sheet of paper over the top of a sheet of blue carbon paper. When written on, the carbon would push itself onto the paper below, so you received an exact copy of the details made. However, due to how it was made, it was known for being extremely messy and easy to smudge. When your keeping records of sales forms, contracts and receipts, you want them to be readable, so thankfully, NCR was born!
Gratefully, the introduction of the No Carbon Required paper (that’s what NCR stands for), has solved all of these issues and provided an accurate and effortless way for tradespeople and businesses to multiply their hand-written documents.
NCR pads are different to our other NCR products since they are glued along the top to create pads of 50 copies. NCR forms or sets on the other hand are produced as loose sheets. Meanwhile, NCR Books come with a perforated edge so that one copy is always maintained within the book for your records. No matter which style of NCR product you are looking for, we guarantee to offer the best printed NCR paper as standard. We never compromise on quality, that’s a promise.
Rather than using a sheet of carbon paper for the reasons above, our A5 NCR pads are made up of several pieces of NCR paper lined with a special micro-encapsulated dye. You have a top sheet and a clay coating on all layers. The carbonless copy paper is glued together in either a set of 2 (when a duplicate is needed) or 3 (when three copies are required) so that when you write on the top sheet using a pen, the writing transfers onto all sheets below and you have perfect copies of the original. You can then tear out the documents and give them to customers and file the other copies away for yourself.Â
A5 NCR pads are used by many different types of businesses since they are ideal for handwritten invoices, delivery notes or receipts. You can multiply these documents quickly and efficiently whether on location or out on the road. These can be used for any purpose where you may need a copy of something.
This depends entirely on how many copies you’d like to make per interaction! Let us explain… Our duplicate and triplicate products differ for the number of sheets contained within. Our custom NCR duplicate pads contain 50 sets so the pad would have 100 sheets glued together. On the other hand, a 3-part NCR would have 150 sheets per pad. Alternatively, if you’re someone that requires four copies of the same document, then you may need a 4-part NCR then each pad would have 200 sheets.
This is dependent on many factors including the specifications you choose when placing your order. Typically shorter runs are done within 5-7 working days with larger runs 7-10 working days. All of our orders come with free delivery to the UK Mainland. We use only the best carbonless paper and printing presses while still offering some of the cheapest NCR printing prices in the UK. We don’t compromise on quality, that’s a promise! As soon as we receive your print ready artwork, we begin processing your order and as soon as it is through our production and it has met our high quality NCR guidelines, we dispatch it for next day delivery.
As well as being fantastic tools for copying information, NCR products can be excellent for establishing your company’s brand identity and establishing a good reputation. We highly recommend making sure the design of your NCR book, set or pad looks professional and stays in line with your company’s design. Typically you would want your company name and contact details clear to see so customers can easily recognise and contact your business.
If you are having sequential numbering on your A5 NCR product, it is best to supply us with two files; one for us to print from and one showing the numbering position as a guide. We will always send a proof with the number before printing for you to check over. Don’t worry, we always send a screen proof for you to approve before printing – this is our standard protocol.
We offer a range of options for the creation of your order pads! For starters, we offer sequential numbering for free! You only have to tell us the start number you would like to begin and let us know where you would like it to go. You can then have them printed in black ink or we can print full colour. If you would also like to get your NCR Pads double-sided, we suggest using 70% black for the reverse to avoid any show-through.
Our pads are available with drilling which is ideal for when you need to store your duplicate copies in a folder. We also give you the choice of paper colour on your duplicate invoices. The top is always white however you are free to choose the second and third colour to work for you and your branding.
Yes, we most certainly can! We offer a design service on all of our NCR pad printing.

We do advise that you give us as much information as possible about your design so that we can quote you accurately.
