Graphius Machine Park
Offset printing
The Graphius machine park is one of the most efficient and extensive in the European sheet-fed market.
More than 126 recent Heidelberg printing groups in three printing formats (36 x 56 cm – 75 x 106 cm – 120 x 160 cm) produce in a full continuous process. All presses are controlled by the Heidelberg Quality Monitor reporting system that rigorously follows the required ISO 12647 standard and detects and adjusts the slightest deviations in real time.
Digital printing company
The quality of our digital printing company equals conventional offset and has short turnaround times. A Kodak Nexpress, a Kodak Digimaster and an HP Indigo are ready to finish your personalized mailings, stationary printing, leaflets or printing on demand project in one or five color printing with possibly online UV high-gloss lacquer.

- manuals, catalogs and books in small volumes

Bookbinding
All the material was recently renewed, which means that the Graphius bindery can call itself the most high-tech bindery in Europe. Everything is done internally: from a stapled brochure to a PUR glued or sewn soft or hardcover book. The degree of flexibility and quality control that we achieve as a result is invaluable.
Color management
All Heidelberg Presses are controlled by high-tech Heidelberg spectral measurement equipment. The system contains spectrophotometric software that reads control elements (mini spots) on the printed sheets and immediately processes them into valuable information that can be used to automatically implement changes.
During the printing process, the control of mini spots ensures much greater reliability. The high-speed software can detect anomalies in the printed color space and take corrective action in real time.
In addition, the analysis of the mini-spots benefits our daily calibration of the CTP installations and printing presses because the entire calibration and test process no longer has to be gone through. This not only leads to consistency in quality delivered, but also in more sustainable production by generating less paper waste, less ink consumption, less electricity consumption and the like.
