Crescent adds Heidelberg pre-press suite and lands ISO 14001


Crescent Press has ordered a new Heidelberg workflow and platesetter to bring it pre-press department up to date.

The 24-staff printer, which has recently achieved ISO 14001 accreditation, will take delivery of the setup in the coming weeks.

Crescent, which specialises in B2 colour work, has retrofitted Axis Control on a Speedmaster CD 74 along with buying Prinect workflow and a processless Suprasetter.

Crescent Press managing director Andy Matthews told printweek.com: "It's a case that if you stand still, you go backwards.

"The new setup will mean that much of our new equipment is integrated into one workflow."

The £1.75m-turnover company already operates two Heidelberg SM 52s, two PM 46 presses and a Risograph GR3750.

Director Jo Matthews said she hopes to highlight Crescent's strict recycling practices off the back of the ISO accreditation.

"This will prove beneficial both to ourselves and our clients. It shows we dispose of waste, such as palettes and flammable liquids, responsibly and in the correct way."
