This latest move means that by the end of the year, the firm will be running seven 12-colour SM 102s, each equipped with CutStar.
Chief executive John Knight (pictured) said: “We urgently need more capacity, so Heidelberg has promised to supply us with another 12-colour within a month. This one is coming ahead of the last of the 12-colours we ordered at Ipex,which is still scheduled for December.”
The Dunton, Essex-based direct mail giant is outputting a staggering 6.4 million sheets per week, with an average of six to 10 jobs per press every 24 hours on its existing five 12-colour machines.
