Heidelberg Reports Incoming Orders Increased in Third Quarter

Orders up in Asia and Europe
The situation in the individual regions still varies tremendously. There was significant growth in the Asia/Pacific region - primarily due to growth in the Chinese market. Incoming orders in this region were more than 50 percent higher than during the same period the previous year. A corner also appears to have been turned in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region. In the period under review, incoming orders were higher than the previous quarters and the same period the previous year. In the North America region, though, there is still no sign of improvement in the situation in the print media industry.
