About Trebuchet
From our base in the centre of the Ipswich docklands regeneration, Trebuchet dedicates itself to catapulting clients' businesses forward through being steadfastly customer‑focused.
Founded on the passion, dedication and experience of the Trebuchet directors, we believe our combination of high-quality creativity, precise targeting and realistic pricing structure enables us to provide hard-hitting solutions that bring success.
Core disciplines
Design
We've built our reputation on inventive, creative design for print. Married with intelligent targeting, our fresh ideas have been applied to everything from flyers to folders, brochures to packaging, and all points in between. Our print management service helps to ensure that all production issues are accounted for and nasty surprises prevented.
Advertising
Trebuchet's imaginative, structured campaigns have shouted about major company launches. They've promoted products, services and events, and they've reinforced corporate values and market presence. Our ideas and messages are devised, pulled apart and honed to work as hard as possible to produce genuine, quantifiable results.
Corporate identities & branding
The purest form of design. Distilling personalities, commodities and values into a single graphic can be the most enigmatic, but rewarding design challenge. The results are applied across stationery and other media with care and consistency.
Digital media
We can help you harness new technology with complete web solutions. Sophisticated back-end technology, including e-commerce and online booking, is supported by an internet marketing service with search engine positioning that will help maximise both hits and profitability.
Packaging
Our dynamic packaging has found its way onto the shelves of some of the biggest names in retail. And once there, they've leapt off them. We've created packs that look great and sell hard for both named brands and own labels.
Point of sale & exhibitions
With POS and exhibition stands that have gone on to sell as far afield as North America, we produce graphics that combine pulling power with clarity, and technology with practicality.
PR & marketing
We have the skills and knowledge to provide strategic direction through the development of marketing plans that will push your business forward. Using our experience, we can recommend and deliver the activities that will achieve, sustain and maintain that all important ROI. See the dedicated section in the main menu for more info.
Photography
We have built excellent, close relationships with photographers over the years giving us total confidence in their ability to interpret our briefs. That doesn't stop us from art directing though.
Copywriting
The ability to find the right words to articulate your message is a critical asset in your communications. Trebuchet can help you present your strengths both clearly and creatively to engage and stimulate.

Who needs PR and marketing?
How do you differentiate yourself in a crowded market? Your audience is in control, now more than ever and it's no longer good enough to tell them only what you do or sell, it's about creating a dialogue and building a relationship.
Whether your potential customers are reading, surfing or listening, you need to be visible and understood. If you don't feel your customers are aware of you or receiving the right messages about you, we can help.
Focusing on how your business is perceived by others is the starting point. All too often it's possible to focus on the means and not the message; we'll take you through a painless process to create and agree a clear and targeted plan. We can then write, tweet and speak as much, or as little, about you as required.
We get a buzz from exceeding your expectations – making your phone ring.

Testimonials
Jose Ivars-Lopez:
Currencies Direct
“When we select any partner we need to be sure they will be an extension of our own organisation, not just a supplier. Trebuchet took the time to listen and learn, but were not afraid to challenge our own thoughts. We have an aggressive agenda that's not always documented in detail, but the design team responds time after time with great creative, on time and without fuss. This makes our testing time and time to market that bit quicker which is a real bonus.”
Richard Morton:
Haven Gateway Partnership
“A big thank you from the Harwich team for all your hard work in producing a fantastic design for the Cruise Shipping Miami exhibition. As always, your team's attention to detail made sure that you created a professional looking stand that highlighted both the branding of Harwich and a sense of the quality of place we were promoting. Once again, many thanks and we look forward to working with you again in the future.”
Jo Abbott:
