The company said printers using Böttcher OEM rollers could actually save 62.5% over cheaper alternatives.

Managing director Mitch Mulligan (pictured) told ProPrint that the company was able to utilise a wide variety of data due to its 285 years in the international market.

“It was good to be able to share results with our partners in Australia,” he said

“The study reflected the longevity of our product. Usually when a price seems too good to be true it’s because it is. Our rollers may be more expensive, but they will last for three or four years as opposed to one or two years.”

Böttcher said savings were in “areas such as reductions in reprinted work, higher productivity because of less roller-related downtime, faster wash-ups and higher quality of the end product, particularly in screens and solids”.

Printers will be able to see full details of Böttcher’s ROI challenge at the company’s stand at PrintEx11.
