Just-In-Time Finishing — Finishing Touches

Going Global
But what sets IBT apart is its international capabilities. Two years ago, it opened a facility in London and plans to expand even further with facilities in Sydney and Hong Kong, scheduled to open within the next two years.

"We can truly distribute-and-print on a global basis," notes Vice President and part-owner Bill Clockel. "Instead of printing books, sending them to a warehouse and shipping them around the world, we'll send the file to one of our facilities around the world and print it there. Time to market is reduced incredibly and so are the costs, because there is no shipping other than local."
