P3, the Post Press Partnership, is being aimed at press manufacturers, offering them a finishing solution, with only one point of contact.

Companies within the organisation include GAE, Lasermax Roll Systems, Renz and Murodigital.

However, Murodigital and GAE bring with them a host of other manufacturers including Horizon and Plockmatic.

GAE spokesman Vic Fletcher said: "It is particularly for specifiers looking for complex solutions. They may want cutters and sheeters in a line with folding. Whatever the problem P3 will have the solution, it makes it easier for the customer."

All the machines can be viewed at GAE's Perivale showroom.
