Specialist folding machine manufacturer Herzog+Heymann (H+H), delivery systems manufacturer Palamides and drilling machine manufacturer, Drselen, are the latest to join the PrintCity alliance of companies.

H+Hs majority shareholder and fellow folding machine manufacturer MBO is already a member of the organisation. MBO and H+H intend to share an 800m2 exhibition stand in hall six at this Mays Drupa exhibition in Dsseldorf.

PrintCity Commercial Activity Group chairman Colin McMichael said that that the market demanded creative folding techniques.

H+H excels in exactly these areas, and I know that it will play a valuable role in current and future PrintCity projects, said McMichael.

PrintCitys 40-plus members include Agfa, MAN Roland, Oc, Baumann-Wohlenberg and Sappi. They have a combined turnover in excess of 20.3bn (30bn).

Members of the alliance work together in Activity Groups to analyse print technologies and their potential market applications.
