Heidelberg Technologies and Service Help Printers Succeed

However, after seven years of using an imagesetter, McWhorter is even more excited about the installation of Creative Printing’s first platesetter, the Heidelberg Suprasetter A74. “The platesetter is an absolute dream,” he said. “We work in a very clean environment now, thanks to the practically chemistry-free plates.” Heidelberg touches every part of Creative Printing’s business, from prepress to postpress – the company operates several older-model Heidelberg presses, including a GTO-F 5-color press, a KORS single color, a TOK and a Heidelberg Windmill Letterpress, as well as two POLAR cutters – and will continue to look to Heidelberg as it continues to expand. “We always mention that we run Heidelberg equipment when going after new business,” McWhorter said. “The word ‘Heidelberg’ just seems to say ‘quality’ to our clients.” Creative Printing was founded in 1976, and now the general commercial shop services local, regional and national clients in the tourism, retail and education industries.
