The Bindery—No Longer the Bottleneck of the Printers’ Workflow

There is opportunity to improve efficiency and increase job profitability through upgrades to a print-er’s binding and finishing operations. Printers have seen the light when it comes to press decisions. Often times they are able to replace two presses with one new press—the efficiency of the new machines far exceeds machines only 10 years old. The same production efficiency enhancements can be made in the bindery and the savvy printer will find profits to be made in the bindery. It’s up to us as NPES members to drive that message home!
