When you’re delivering one of the UK’s largest infrastructure projects, reliable access to accurate information isn’t a choice – it’s essential. Every drawing, permit, safety document and construction record must be available exactly when it’s needed and without compromising security, compliance or productivity.
For the Hinkley Point C nuclear power station in Somerset, EDF Energy appointed ARC UK to provide a fully managed on-site print and information management solution. Operating within one of the country’s most highly regulated construction environments, ARC UK established a dedicated on-site print facility that continues to support the project with secure document production, managed print services and specialist graphic solutions. The result is a dependable print operation that helps keep a nationally significant infrastructure project moving forward.

EDF Energy sits at the heart of Hinkley Point C’s development. It is the first nuclear power station Britain has built in over twenty years. Given the huge scale and complexity of the project, one of the biggest in the country, everything hinges on getting the details right: accurate information, strict adherence to compliance, and hundreds of contractors working together without a hitch.
To support this demanding environment, EDF required more than a print supplier. They needed a trusted managed print partner capable of delivering secure document production, maintaining regulatory standards and providing continuous on-site support.

Large construction programmes generate thousands of critical documents every day. For a project operating within the nuclear sector, those documents must be produced securely, accurately and without delay.
For Hinkley Point C, ARC UK addressed several key challenges throughout the project.
Construction drawings, permits and operational documents needed to be available whenever project teams required them, while maintaining document integrity.
Working within a nuclear construction environment required full compliance with health and safety procedures, quality standards, environmental policies and secure information management protocols.
With hundreds of contractors working across the site, the print facility needed to provide fast, reliable support without disrupting day-to-day construction activities.
As part of a long-term managed service contract, the solution had to combine dependable on-site resources with the resilience of ARC UK’s nationwide and global support network.
ARC UK delivered a fully managed on-site print and information management solution tailored to the operational demands of one of the UK’s most significant infrastructure developments.
A fully staffed on-site print centre was established to provide immediate access to construction drawings, technical documentation and everyday project printing, ensuring critical information remained readily available.
ARC UK managed the production of essential project documents while maintaining strict quality control, secure workflows and efficient fulfilment processes that supported daily construction activities.
Alongside print production, ARC UK provided graphic design services for campaigns, branded communications, digital content and visual materials that supported wider site operations.
Operating within a highly regulated environment, every aspect of the service was delivered in accordance with rigorous health and safety, environmental and information security standards. Backed by ARC UK’s national network, the on-site operation also benefited from additional resilience and business continuity.
