Low-cost, high-speed, and high-quality digitally printed pages at B1 format will soon be tried out in production environments with the full support of Komori.

Benny Landa: "Komori is an outstanding partner for Landa, bringing an extremely high caliber of engineering expertise, second-to-none quality and performance, together with a fervent commitment and willingness to invest in the future. We absolutely have to have a vendor that we know has the financial strength to support us long-term."

As far as any cultural shifts this might involve at Komori, Baines said, “This really plays into what Mr. Komori said at our Print13 press conference. We are in a rebirth stage as a company. The Landa agreement is one more arrow in the quiver for us moving forward. This is an exciting time for Komori and we are looking forward to what’s on the horizon.”.

Landa and Komori have ratified their relationship for the supply of sheet-fed platforms for the new range of Landa Nanographic Printing presses.

Komori and Landa have formalised their strategic partnership for press technologies, with Komori chief Yoshiharu Komori likening the significance of Nanography to the advent of digital printing.

The research hails greater product personalisation and mass customisation as key areas of growth, with brands, retailers and converters also managing multi-language packaging, faster cycles for print production and time to market.

New market dynamics are forcing a significant push toward short run package production but the current expense of hardware, current digital technology – inkjet included, struggles to meet the minimum standards of quality and total cost of ownership.

Folding carton converters, who comprise the packaging industry's largest segment, are increasingly limited by their ability to deliver shorter runs and may benefit from Nanography^®, Landa's Nanographic Printing^® process.

Ila Bialystok, Landa Vice President of Marketing: "We hope that by reading the white paper, you'll feel as excited as we are about the industry and our game-changing technology."
