Edelmann Group Announces Landa S10 Nanographic Printing Press Now in Commercial Production
Tuesday 04. June 2019 - Edelmann Group and Landa Digital Printing today announced that 60 leading converters and printers from around the world attended an open house at Edelmanns Heidenheim facility, to see Europes first Landa S10 Nanographic Printing Press producing commercial jobs at 6,500 B141 in. sheets per hour.
Visitors heard how the Landa S10 perfectly complements Edelmanns offset technology, and how its brand customers now request its new Nanographic Printing capability because of the freedom it offers – to order what they want, when they want it – all with high and consistent print quality.
“In the print and packaging world, everyone is clamoring to know if our Landa S10 is running as expected. We repeatedly get asked if print quality is good and if were running seven colors. They also ask if were achieving 6,500 B1/41 in. sheets per hour and if were able to produce commercial jobs,” comments Oliver Bruns, CEO, Edelmann Group. “The simple answer to all of that is, yes of course. The Landa S10 is built to be a full production machine, 24/7. The colors are brilliant and vibrant – so intense and lively. I havent seen any other technology that comes close.”
“Before installing the Landa S10, we were limited in the solutions we could offer our customers. B1/41 in. digital printing with seven colors and at 6,500 sheets per hour has eliminated these previous constraints. The S10 installation has been a great success, and we now expect to be out of beta in a matter of weeks,” confirmed Bruns.
Specializing in packaging solutions for health care, beauty care and consumer brands, the Edelmann Group has operations in nine countries, spanning Europe, Asia, North and South America. Employing more than 3,000 people and with sales of over 300 million euros, Edelmann produces over 5.6 billion packages and leaflets per year. In meeting the environmental demands of some of the worlds most exacting blue-chip brands, sustainability initiatives are also a top priority for the company.
Speaking at the open house, Oliver Bruns also confirmed that partnering with Landa was the best decision for their business. “This is not just a supplier-customer relationship, its far more. I love the color from our S10, but crucially, the Landa technology allows us to get a good ROI and thats just as essential. High speed and great efficiency enable us to earn money with the press.” said Bruns.
Yishai Amir, CEO, Landa Digital Printing, comments: “We are obviously thrilled with the success of the Landa S10 at Edelmann, and we are looking forward to moving them out of beta within weeks. This success echoes our own business progress, on all fronts. With a continued ramp-up of production and go-to-market operations, we will have presses installed and printing across three continents by the end of 2019.”
