What else sets us apart?
We Cultivate Exceptional Service & Customer Relationships
We don’t just sell you a printer and disappear. We love building genuine relationships with our clients—we’ll help you control your costs by optimising your set-up, constantly stay across any advances or changes in products that may support you (with no pressure to purchase unless you deem it appropriate), and set you up to get the best output and consistent consumable availability you need to conduct business (and scale your business).
We Prioritise Environmentally-Aware Products and Practices
We feel responsible for the impact our business has on the world and believe in leaving an eco-positive footprint. At VVD Hue we actively endorse the Cartridges 4 Planet Ark programme and we are diligent with our separation of cardboard and paper products from our general waste. Where possible, VVD Hue source products that contribute maximum points towards Green Star ratings.
Meet our team
VVDhue is a group of people who are passionate about what you do.
Peter Head
Peter’s passion for pre-press printing spans over three decades. He began his journey as an apprentice at a top-notch trade house, where he climbed up the ranks from Production Manager to General Manager. He then switched gears and joined a resellership that catered to the print industry with Large Format printers. For 11 years, he led their Colour Services Division with expertise and dedication.
Peter noticed a gap in the market for high-quality service and support for businesses in various fields that relied on printing and imaging. That’s why he founded VVD Hue, a company that offers tailor-made solutions for the print, pre-press design, photographic, GIS and CAD industries.
Stuart
With over 35 years of experience in the photographic and printing industry, Stuart is an expert in colour management and reprographic work, and is always looking for new ways to help VVD Hue clients improve the quality and consistency of their print output.
He began his journey as a Lithographic camera operator for Show Ads/PMP group, where he learned the skills of producing high-quality prints. He then expanded his horizons by working as a technical and publicity photographer for a Government entity and a large multinational corporation, where he captured stunning images for various purposes. Stuart also contributed to the Research and Development of colour management for Colourbus, where he was responsible for training, pre-sales and industry standards certification, and has worked for reseller companies supporting clients with their colour management needs.
Janita
Janita joined VVD Hue’s accounts department, armed with a solid background in the corporate financial industry, where she handled various roles of fiscal responsibility. She then left the big multinational corporation and became her own boss, running a very successful business. We’re grateful to have her support our business and our clients.
Kind Words from VVDhue Clients
“As a Photography and Fine Art Printer, our printer is central to our success, and VVDhue is very much my “go-to” team for any questions or advice about our printer. I haven’t actually had to upgrade the printer for about 10 years now, but at one stage I did look at upgrading, and it was actually Peter at VVDhue who advised me to stick with what I’ve got for the time being, based on what was available in the market, and he was right! So he’s not in it to make a buck. He’s very much my go-to when I’ve got any questions, or when I need new parts. I very much rely on his knowledge base.”
