When John and Mario, co-owners of the Printroom UK, decided to secure the future of their business, their vision was clear: invest in cutting-edge technology to modernize operations, enhance customer service, and build a more sustainable company.
“We knew that to stay competitive, we needed to update our equipment and processes,” John explains. “Our existing setup was reliable but limited in terms of speed, quality, and efficiency. It was time to make a bold move.”
John and Mario evaluated multiple manufacturers before selecting the Komori GL529 press with coater. “We wanted more than just a machine; we were looking for a partner who understood our business and shared our values,” John says. “Komori’s professionalism, expertise, and ability to demonstrate the press’s capabilities in the showroom in European headquarters made all the difference. It was clear that this wasn’t just about selling a product—it was about building a relationship.”
The new Komori press has transformed Printroom's operations, offering unparalleled efficiency and flexibility. By embracing this cutting-edge technology, they have significantly improved their production capabilities, reduced downtime, and minimized waste, underscoring their dedication to cost-effective solutions and sustainability. This investment not only strengthens their ability to meet current demands but also positions them to adapt to future challenges with confidence.
The investment also opened new opportunities for the Printroom UK to diversify its offerings. “With the advanced features of the press, we can take on projects we previously had to turn down. It’s expanded our capabilities and made us a true one-stop shop for our clients,” John adds.
The experience with Komori’s service team further reinforced the Printroom UK’s decision to invest. “From installation to training and ongoing support, your service team has been outstanding,” John shares. “They were responsive, knowledgeable, and committed to ensuring we got the most out of our new Komori GL529 press. It’s rare to find a supplier that goes above and beyond like this.”
Sustainability was a driving factor in the Printroom UK’s decision to modernize. The new press plays a crucial role in their efforts to reduce environmental impact. “We’ve always been committed to sustainability, and this press aligns perfectly with that goal,” John explains. “Its energy efficiency, reduced waste, and compatibility with eco-friendly inks and materials help us minimize our carbon footprint.”
The Printroom UK’s commitment to sustainability extends beyond technology. The company holds ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications, reinforcing its focus on quality and environmental stewardship. “These accreditations are essential for showing clients that we’re serious about doing business responsibly,” John says.
With the new press in place, the Printroom UK is well-positioned for future growth. John and Mario plan to continue investing in technology and exploring new markets. “This investment was just the beginning,” John says. “We’re focused on building a sustainable, innovative business that can adapt to changing client needs and market trends.”
The Komori purchase has also strengthened the Printroom UK’s reputation for reliability and quality.
“Clients know they can rely on us for the best results, whether it’s a small print run or a large-scale project,” John says. “That trust is the foundation of our success.”
Reflecting on their journey, John is confident they made the right choice. “This investment wasn’t just about upgrading equipment—it was about preparing for the future,” he says.
“Thanks to Komori’s team, we’re not just keeping up with the industry; we’re leading the way.”
With a strong focus on innovation and sustainability, the Printroom UK is ready to continue delivering exceptional value to its clients well into the future
