Buxton Press's finishing department has become an all-Heidelberg operation following a £750,000 spend to cope with growing volumes.The Derbyshire-based magazine printer is to take delivery of a Stitchmaster ST 450 multi-station saddlestitcher and three additional KH78 combination folders.
Buxton operates round the clock, printing more than 350 titles. The former PrintWeek Environmental Company of the Year winner said it chose Heidelberg as it needed robust, proven and reliable equipment to cope with the continually increasing volume of work.
Buxton Press operations director Kirk Galloway said: "With this latest saddlestitcher, Heidelberg has taken a giant step forward.
"We evaluated carefully, undertaking machine tests and company visits and, as a result, have come down solidly in favour of the Stitchmaster."
The printer's machine operators undertook site visits and found the ST 450 to be fast and operator-friendly.
