Products and services awarded the Stationers’ Company Warrant are of a quality which results from the hard work and research which went into their development and recipients have noticed and commented on the benefits of being able to use the Warrant.
In 2022, Richard Chapman Studio was awarded a warrant in recognition of excellence for its work on the centenary rebranding and website project completed for the architecture practice Mountford Pigott.
Richard Chapman, creative director of the company, commented: ‘Doing business in 2023 is a tough game. Sometimes it seems like everyone out there wants to undercut, shortcut or cut you off at the knees! I believe that having a badge of authenticity and quality makes all the difference.
‘I run a design business creating branding and web design: there are no trade associations for graphic designers, just word of mouth from our customers and great feedback. So, when the opportunity to apply for a Stationers’ Warrant came up, I was immediately intrigued. By chance, we had recently completed a landmark project for a firm of architects celebrating their centenary with a rebrand and new website. It was exactly the sort of blue chip project that we were keen to have given an additional rubber stamp by an independent body.
‘We were thrilled to be awarded a warrant and display it proudly in the office and on our website. I believe it has made a real difference to enhancing our reputation and securing new contracts.’
Chris Geer, chair of the Stationers’ Warrants Committee, said: ‘It is good to be able to recognise top quality products and services throughout the communications and content industries and to know that the Stationers’ Warrants in themselves are of benefit to the recipients.’
