EPI Companies — On the Move

“By doing all of the tracking and inventory management of these photo props, the by-product is that we’ve been able to grow our business by also printing the catalogs that result from these photo shoots,” Blair notes.

Still Rooted in Printing

Not that EPI has abandoned its print roots—the company has just gained more “wallet share” with its customers. In fact, the company has dedicated a good deal of resources in revitalizing its equipment dossier heading into the new facilities. Aside from the new HP Indigo 5000, topping the acquisitions list are a slew of Heidelberg products: two- and four-color 40˝ Speedmasters, the Prinect workflow, two Prosetter violet platesetters, a Varimatrix diecutter, an ST-450 saddlestitcher, a Stahlfolder TH/KH folder, a Stahl Flexomailer and two in-line closed-loop spectrophotometers.
