Monday 07. April 2008 - Increased printing capacity required for growing market demand

Leading Latvian newspaper publisher FENSTER International has installed a Goss Universal press for its new printing facility in Riga. Printing operations and editorial offices are based at the new 2,000m2 facility.

The new two-around Goss Universal press is equipped with three four-high towers and one folder and prints up to 75,000 copies per hour.

The reputation of Goss International and its local agent Heidelberg Web Systems in the Latvian market is very good, so it was an easy choice for us to select the Goss Universal press for this latest investment.”
