Samson Druck orders its 2nd ROLAND EVOLUTION

World's first installed ROLAND 700 Evolution commended by leading Austrian print house

Samson Druck GmbH a prestigious print house in Austria was the first printer to install a ROLAND 700 Evolution press in October last year. In fact, the press has been performing so well, the company has just ordered its second ten-color Evolution press for installation later this year.

Samson Druck GmbH is a leader in the sheetfed offset printing market in Austria. Founded in 1978, the company provides a broad range of services including consulting, pre-press, printing, processing, finishing, binding and direct mailing services with worldwide distribution. Tourism agencies and multi-national companies are just some of the businesses they supply to.

“As our customers’ needs are becoming increasingly more distinctive and complex; strict quality requirements drive us to constantly invest in the world’s most advanced printing technologies,” said Gerhard Aichhorn, the company’s Owner and General Manager.

“Our customers request the highest quality and so do we! We believe that customer satisfaction is the most important measurement of our print quality; we have proven that Manroland Sheetfed guarantee the highest quality in our daily business. Together we give customers what they want.”

Samson Druck GmbH and Manroland Sheetfed have enjoyed a good working relationship for more than two decades. Currently, four Manroland Sheetfed presses - including the world’s very first Evolution - are in full production at Samson Druck GmbH's production facility. With more than a combined total of 30 printing units, they are responsible for printing over 5,000 tonnes of paper in Samson’s 6,000m2 modern production facility.

The preciseness and reliability of the new press with its new functional features were all factors which drove Aichhorn and his team to invest in a second Evolution press. “The machine with its new console and touchscreen is user-friendly and Inline color measuring and control ensures consistent quality” he said.

Samson Druck GmbH recently received a number of significant awards, including the state prize for the most beautiful book in Austria and GoldenPixel Award in the "business report" category in 2014.
