Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg) has invited print shops across the globe to compete for its international environmental award for sustainable printing in the sheetfed offset sector. The company offers a total prize fund of EUR 50,000 for the award, which is divided into two categories: "Sustainable Companies" and "Forward-looking Solutions."
Susan Nofi, senior vice president, Human Resources and Legal, will assume leadership of Heidelberg’s Print Media Academy (PMA) and Business Consulting unit for North America, in addition to continuing her current duties. Nofi brings more than 20 years of management experience in legal, human resources and organizational development roles.
The report includes briefs on press and postpress equipment installations by Color Offset Printers, Boneck Printing, Etheridge Printing, Print ‘N Copy Center, and Franklin Templeton Distributors.
At IPEX earlier this year, Heidelberger Druckmaschinen announced that its entire service portfolio had been combined into a dedicated division, led by Marcel Kiessling, member of the management board responsible for Heidelberg Services. In an exclusive interview, Kiessling explains how Heidelberg aims to help its customers be more successful overall in the long-term.
