ABOUT CFH DOCMAIL
CFH Docmail is a £46m company specialising in Print and Post. We aim to produce and deliver your documents in the most cost effective, efficient and environmentally friendly way.
A major player...
We are the largest provider of hybrid mail in the UK with our Docmail service allowing you to send real post direct from your PC desktop.
We are one of the largest providers of Transactional Print and Mail in the UK, delivering 13% of all council tax bills and 12% of all election documents per annum, and producing and delivering critical documents for household name institutions in all areas of business. We are also a major supplier of stationery and lithographic print to businesses and mailing houses, including direct mail, pin mailers and integrated products, cheques and certificates.
Super secure
Our Dotpost service to consumers provides a secure online digital mailbox for critical documents and is rapidly becoming the most favoured means for organisations to deliver online documents to their consumer audience.
Our services are designed to add value to any business from the largest to the smallest, reducing cost, improving efficiency and reducing your environmental impact.
As you would expect from a business processing confidential data, our security is of the highest, and we hold all appropriate security, quality and environmental accreditations (see details).
Award winning environmentalists
But we are not 'tick box' environmentalists. Our work with the University of West of England has led to a 20% reduction in energy usage despite our growth and we now produce over 10% of our own energy annually through our solar roof space. In addition we are one of the oldest corporate sponsors of the Woodland Trust having supported them for over 19 years, through the Toptree Initiative, planting over 100,000 trees and having a wood named in our honour near Burton on Trent.
Docmail saves a typical user 630 miles per year of fossil fuel use. We source all of our electricity from renewable sources (where we don't produce it ourselves), and since our server farms are based in house, our Dotpost online document service is also fossil fuel free.
Nationwide business
We have production sites near Bath, Slough, and in Livingston (Scotland). Our distributed production sites allow us to offer reliable business continuity and disaster recovery solutions to even the largest business.
We believe in honesty fairness and openness. To that end you will find detailed accounting information on this page, and you will find that our terms of trading and contractual documents are designed to be reasonable and fair to all parties.
We look forward to working with you.
THREE SIMPLE STEPS TO HUGE POSTAGE SAVINGS
CFH Docmail Ltd are leaders in document management and delivery. Our Docmail and Dotpost brands along with our full range of Managed Services are revolutionising how we process and handle conventional print and mail in the digital age. At the core of CFH Docmail's philosophy is passionate desire to reduce waste and help the planet - and this means using renewable energy for as much of the production chain as possible.
Our 3STEPS Solution saves time, money and carbon!
Step 1. Firstly, we carry out detailed review of customer communications with particular reference to post to identify potential areas where a reduction in cost and time can be achieved through the use of our print and mail service Docmail and secure digital delivery service Dotpost. This will then be followed by rolling out Docmail to start the immediate cost-savings process.
Step 2. Secondly, we prepare a migration to online delivery services with the roll out of Dotpost This can also include training, structuring of “Docmail Corporate” where required, and any development of White Label product as deemed appropriate.
Step 3. Thirdly, we carry out detailed review of software systems that generate output communications with a view to direct integration into CFH communication solutions. A project plan for software integration is then prepared, followed by roll-out of software.

Case study: Regional Purchasing Organisation
CFH won the contract to print canvass forms for several Councils via their purchasing organisation. Each Council had their own individual requirements, but were able to benefit from the cost efficiencies of grouping together under contract. Members of the CFH implementation team visited each Council before the start of the canvass to ensure that all their requirements were understood and met.
The Team Leader for Elections and Registration Service for one of these councils had this to say: “Thanks for all your help - things are going very smoothly and it feels as though we have worked with you for years…”

PROFESSIONAL ACCREDITATION
No manufacturer in the UK can afford to ignore best practice and we at CFH Docmail take our responsibilities very seriously. By ensuring that we meet critical standards in production, IT and the environment, our customers have confidence in us over important matters like whether their paper is responsibly sourced or whether their data is fully secure.
We continually maintain the certification we currently possess, making sure that it is up to date and relevant to our customers' expectations, whilst adding to the list of accreditations we hold as necessary. This is an on-going process.
Below is a summary of some of these important standards.
ISO 14001:2015 Environment Management System
ISO 14001 is all about reducing waste, costs and risk. This international standard is about setting up a fully integrated and effective Environmental Management System (EMS) to streamline operations, allocate time and resources more effectively and increase overall efficiency.
ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System
ISO 9001 is an internationally-recognised standard for quality management, ensuring that organisations have proven processes in place to meet customer requirements.
ISO/IEC 27001: 2013 Information and Data Security
ISO 27001 gives both clients and CFH the confidence to trust us with the safe-keeping of their information. This benchmark of quality demonstrates due diligence and makes it possible for us to provide customers with information about our IT management policies, standards and procedures.
Forest Stewardship Council® certified
FSC® certification is a voluntary, market-based tool that supports responsible forest management worldwide. FSC® certified forest products are verified from the forest of origin through the supply chain. The FSC® label ensures that the forest products used are from responsibly harvested and verified sources.
Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification accredited
PEFC works throughout the entire forest supply chain to promote good practice in the forest and to ensure that timber and non-timber forest products are produced with respect for the highest ecological, social and ethical standards. Thanks to its eco-label, our customers are assured that their paper products come from sustainably managed forests.
Cheque and Credit Clearing Company (formerly APACS) accredited
The Cheque and Credit Clearing Company (C&CCC) is a non-profit making industry body, which has managed the cheque clearing system for England, Scotland and Wales since 1996. As well as clearing cheques, the system processes bankers’ drafts, building society cheques, postal orders, warrants, government payable orders and travellers’ cheques.
Cyber Essentials certification
Cyber Essentials is a UK government scheme encouraging organisations to adopt good practice in information security. It includes an assurance framework and a simple set of security controls to protect information from threats coming from the internet. It was developed in collaboration with industry partners, including the Information Security Forum, the Information Assurance for Small and Medium Enterprises Consortium and the British Standards Institution, and is endorsed by the UK Government. It was launched in 2014 by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills.
THE TOPTREE INITIATIVE: "PAPER MAKES TREES"
IN 1997, CFH started up the Toptree Initiative in order to enable businesses who consume paper to put back into the UK environment native trees in greater volume than the wood used to make the paper in the first place. In fact TWICE as many trees!
Paper used to make Toptree supported products comes from sustainably managed forests all over the world. But in order to directly benefit future British citizens, the Initiative is in partnership with the well respected Woodland Trust who provide the trees and do the actual planting in the woods they manage up and down the country.
The Toptree Initiative also runs a participation scheme whereby, purchasers of paper products and Docmail mailings can enter codes which go towards the planting of extra trees in these managed woods.In addition our partnership with the Woodland Trust allows us to give out extra trees to customers to plant in their gardens or in Environmental schemes of their own.
- Launched at the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew in January 1997
- To date, nearly 100,000 extra trees have been planted in the UK via the Toptree Initiative
- In partnership with the Woodland Trust, which now protects and cares for more than 1,100 woods across the UK
