A new large print format brand has been launched in Dover, Kent.

Born from the heritage of the region’s longest standing print and design providers, Buckland Media Group, Cactus Graphics has been co-founded by Katie Weaver and Richard Archer. 

With a clear ambition to become Kent’s leading large format print providers, both Katie and Richard boast extensive experience in the design and print industry - with Richard’s career spanning 26 years and both having both worked for Buckland Media Group for the last five and thirteen years, respectively. 

The launch of Cactus Graphics comes as Jeremy and Linda Weaver – co-owners of Buckland Media Group - announce their retirement from the print industry, enabling Katie to take the family name forwards into a new era of design, print and graphics.

Under the new brand, Katie and Richard will continue to offer the Group’s extensive service offering across graphic design and the print of marketing, signage, and display materials, whilst extending its large format provision with the use of a new UV Digital Hybrid Printer and Digital CNC Cutter.

Katie explained: “Having worked side by side for many years at Buckland Media Group, both Richard and I share the same high standards of product quality and service delivery and pride ourselves on establishing long-term and flexible relationships with our clients. 

We are committed to carrying this company culture through to Cactus Graphics and in extending our capability in large format print, we hope to attract more businesses with varied and high-speed print requirements - delivered at competitive prices. 

I am, therefore, really excited to be taking the Weaver family name into the new age of design, print and graphics and hope that in the years to come my parents will be proud of what we have achieved under our own entity of Cactus Graphics.”

Located on Barwick Road, Dover, Cactus Graphics employs a team of 7graphics and print specialists and boasts ambitious plans to increase market share in the large print format industry over the coming years.
