The tools required to conduct the assessment, PrintSpec, are still available directly through Stehlin Hostag Ink UK Limited who are still offering the opportunity to all printing companies out there to have a FREE assessment. Stehlin will work closely with everyone to help companies achieve the ISO standard.
