How to read SIC 18121
SIC 18121 reads as division 18 (printing and reproduction of recorded media), group 181, class 1812, then the full five digits, inside section C, manufacturing. A company picks its own codes, up to four, and Companies House does not check them, so 18121 is the company's own description of what it does, and 642 list it first where 707 list it anywhere.
Who sells into division 18
Printers buy a distinctive mix. They need paper and consumables, equipment leasing and workflow software.

List both. A division 18 code such as 18129 covers the print side. Code 74100, specialised design activities, covers the studio work. A company can register up to four codes from any divisions.
