Muller Martini is set to challenge Kolbus after buying the rights to manufacture Book Technology Groups hard-cover products.
Profinish and Hrauf Maschinenfabrik products will be manufactured at VBF Buchtechnologie, which Muller Martini bought three years ago.
Muller Martini UK managing director Andreas Schillinger said: We can now supply everything necessary to turn the printed page into a book.
