Carson corrects cracking issue

Commercial printer Carson Service Printers has eradicated a cracking problem in its finishing department by adding scoring wheels to its Rollem folder.

According to managing director Eddie McGill, the Wirral-based company had problems when folding heavier stock that had been digitally printed.

He said: "We were producing things like cards, but be­­cause of the cracking, fin­­­ish­­ing was done elsewhere. We were asked to trial the scoring wheels and it has made a big difference. That work can all now stay in-house."

The scoring wheels were launched by Rollem at Ipex and Carson has now installed them permanently.

As well as the cards, Carson also produces A4 forms and stationery.
