By GlobalDataThe press gives us further optimisation to our current Nilpeter lines in ‘pure’ efficiency.
“It was a completely different way to buy a press in the current climate (Zoom meetings and sign off, with an installation factory acceptance test) and we had every confidence in the delivery of our requests for this capital expenditure.
“We are really pleased to again have Close Brothers Asset Finance on board as our funder because, with their background in print and packaging, they are able to adopt a partnership approach, providing bespoke deals that are right for us.”
Nick Hughes, managing director, Nilpeter Ltd: “The press is designed to accommodate the printer’s ever-growing needs and is built around the modern printing operator, with an intuitive user interface and fully mobile print controls.”
