Delmarva Printing Celebrates Grand Opening with Heidelberg Solutions

Monday 04. February 2008 - Supporting and investing in the local community is a top priority for Gary Crescenze, president of the brand-new Delmarva Printing in Salisbury, Md. The 18 employees of Delmarva Printing are so confident that the company will succeed that one-third of them have invested in the business.

Heidelberg sales representative John DiAngelo has also been confident in Delmarva Printing since day one. “John has jumped through hoops for us,” Crescenze said. “Heidelberg was one of few companies that would deal with a small start-up company that needed this much equipment.” Crescenze’s 27 years of industry experience taught him that Heidelberg equipment is reliable and durable, so he turned to Heidelberg to outfit every area of his print shop, from prepress through the bindery. “Heidelberg is the industry standard and our customers are very supportive and very happy that we have chosen to use Heidelberg throughout our shop,” Vice President of marketing & sales Pete Brown said. Delmarva Printing already has installed a Suprasetter A 74 platesetter along with a complete digital front-end Prinect system in the chemical-free prepress area, which includes use of Saphira Chemfree plates from Heidelberg. The company is running two remarketed Heidelberg presses, a 6-color Speedmaster SM 74 with aqueous coater, perfecter and extended delivery, as well as a 2-color Printmaster QM 46 press and Heidelberg consumables in all areas of the shop. “The SM 74 press honestly runs better than some brand new presses I’ve seen,” Brown said. “These presses are cost-effective and offer sturdy, solid high-quality results.” The bindery at Delmarva includes a new POLAR 115 X cutter, new Stahlfolder B 26 and Stahlfolder B 20 folders, and a remarketed Stitchmaster ST 90 6-pocket saddlestitcher. Delmarva Printing serves local and regional nonprofits, agencies, industrial companies and small business customers.
