Cutting Edge has grown from a small local printing business to a leader in the printing and finishing industry. Founded by Grant in 1999 and now led by his son Matthew, this family-owned company thrives on innovation and their ability to adapt to ever-evolving market demands. Rooted in strong family values, their dedicated team works closely with clients to provide comprehensive solutions from design to production. Known for their leadership and collaboration, Cutting Edge is a trusted partner in cardboard commercialisation and innovative solutions.
Grant began his journey in the printing industry as a 17-year-old apprentice, mastering letterpress and offset lithographic printing. This experience set the foundation for his future leadership roles.
After completing his apprenticeship, Grant rose to manage that same printing company, before broadening his horizons working overseas. These experiences enriched his business acumen and prepared him for greater opportunities.
Returning to Australia, Grant swiftly moved into leadership positions in various printing companies, leveraging his extensive experience to drive excellence and innovation within the industry.
At Websdale Printing, Grant started on the machines and quickly advanced to running both night and day shifts. His tenure there honed his skills in production management and technical sales.
Seizing an opportunity, Grant purchased a small die cutting company and transformed it into Cutting Edge. Starting with a small team, he laid the groundwork for the company’s growth and success.
Cutting Edge began to expand, adapting to market demands by incorporating new technologies in printing and finishing. This period marked the beginning of its evolution into the service provider we know today.
The company expanded its services to include design, printing, production, and logistics, offering clients a seamless start-to-finish solution and cementing its reputation for greatness.
Embracing digital printing technology, Cutting Edge enhanced its service offerings, staying ahead of industry trends and meeting the evolving needs of its clients.
Significant projects and rebranding efforts marked a period of modernisation and growth, reflecting the company’s commitment to innovation and quality.
Grant’s son, Matthew, took over the leadership of Cutting Edge, infusing the business with new energy and vision while continuing its legacy of family values and industry excellence.
Celebrating 25 years of operation, Cutting Edge reflects on its journey from a small operation to a leading provider in the industry, renowned for its innovation, quality, and family-oriented culture.
