The new machines complete Glynn Print's full range of finishing machinery, which includes stitching lines, folders, wrapping lines and die-cutters.

Works director Tony Fickling said: “Since the installation of the new folders, we have a greater versatility to cope with different types of jobs, and can handle greater volumes due to the higher speed of the folder.

“We needed to replace some older folders – MBO and Stahl – and required high-speed machines to cope with the faster output of the Palamides automatic banding machines.

“We already have quite a few MBO folders that have proved very reliable and which our operators enjoy working with, so it seemed the ideal solution to purchase more of the same type.”

Glynn Print Finishing employs 100 staff and has an annual turnover of £4m.
