Printing and production of secure documentation comes as second nature to TALL Security Print, and has seen them responsible for producing millions of election ballot papers around the world.

TALL Security Print, part of the TALL Group of Companies, was appointed by the Electoral Commission of Uganda to provide ballot paper requirements for the Ugandan elections, which took place earlier this year.

Printed during the run up to Christmas and New Year, TALL Security Print was responsible for managing the process in the UK, from the Ugandan Origination Department through to completion and delivery of the ballot papers, which were made into books and securely shipped to Uganda. In total over 24,000 candidate details were included on the ballots.

“The printing of ballot papers requires a high degree of technical competence,” comments Martin Ruda, Group Managing Director at theTALL Group of Companies. He adds: “We have developed reliable processes to fulfill high volume orders for these elections, which require an extremely fast turnaround. This was a complex order as the papers included an image of the election candidates.

“The whole team at our Runcorn site, from origination, through print to the shipping department come together in a concerted effort to fulfill these ballot paper requirements.” Martin continues: “The task was made even harder operating under COVID-19 restrictions, where we had to provide separate COVID secure facilities for the delegation visiting from Uganda to oversee our preparations and print of the ballot documents. As always, we are proud of our contribution to this African nation’s election.”

Over the past 16 years, TALL Security Print has been responsible for producing millions of election ballot papers around the world and in the UK, working to critical deadlines, and providing high levels of security.
