GENR8 Printing recently purchased a Plockmatic BM4000 Booklet Maker from distributor Renz to offer square edge booklets.
The machine enables the business to produce square edge booklets from A6 to A4 size in landscape, or large format at 300mm by 300mm.
“This makes GENR8 Printing the only one in Newcastle at the moment to offer A4 landscape saddle stitch. With more people hearing about this purchase, we’ve been getting more enquiries about it, and more new customers, especially corporate clients, are coming through our doors,” GENR8 Printing owner Yianni Moratidis told Sprinter.
“The benefit of this machine is, we can pretty much get it to our customers on the same day – previously, it took us a couple of days as we had to print them, cut them, crease them, then, manually staple them and press them together. So, this has been a great investment for us.”
GENR8 Printing also recently bought two new JWEI finishing solutions from Smartech Business Systems to speed up production and quicker turnaround times to clients.
“We’ve made investments into our new machines as the quicker we can get jobs out, the more we can service other clients as well. We are a small team, and I like to keep it small, so, speed and less menial tasks go a long way for our team,” Moratidis said.
“We are starting to see a shift in our clientele – we have more clients come to us today that we’ve never dealt with before. Within the next six to 12 months, we’ll have a better understanding of our growth trajectory and will be making further investments into new machines.”
Earlier this month, GENR8 Printing also announced its purchase of a new Ricoh Pro C7500 with 5th colour, which it purchased through Pivotal Business Systems, for its small format department.
