Quad/Graphics Launches $600 Million Expansion Program

Won exclusive printing contracts for the production of National Geographic Traveler and National Geographic World;

Produced a variety of softcover and hardcover books; and

Printed the Polish-language edition of National Geographic through its European print partner, Winkowski.

The equipment additions are only the latest for Quad. In recent months it has purchased 56 pieces of press and finishing equipment, including 20 web offset and sheetfed presses, two gravure presses, 28 saddle stitchers and six perfect binders. While the presses, stitchers and binders will replace some existing equipment, they mostly will expand Quad/Graphics' capacity.
