After a series of technical faults at their local cutting company, Meshtex had to take matters into their own hands.

Managing Director Steven Bull quickly realised that it was time to make the crucial investment in a new cutter.

The latest FormerLine generation from manroland Goss redefines the finishing of digitally printed books. With a pro- duction speed of up to 305 meters per minute, the system adapts perfectly to the requirements of digital printing and thus offers an ideal solution for short to medium run lengths. GGP Media, one of the leading providers of print and digital publications, is already successfully using this technology to raise effi- ciency and production quality to a new level.
