The Autobond Mini 76 SD TP
Autobond has entered the Estonian market for the first time with the installation of a Mini 76 SD T laminator at commercial printer AS Printon Trükikoda.
The investment supports the Estonian company’s expansion into foreign markets.
Serving the magazine, book and commercial printing markets across Estonia, the Tallinn-based company has recognised the potential of exporting its services abroad, most notably in Scandinavia.
Currently exporting over half of its production, the company wanted to increase this capacity by broadening its service offering. This led the company to lamination.
Chairman, Tarmo Oramäe, explained, ‘To be a successful business in the pressurised print market at the moment, you have to differentiate your services and throw your net a bit further. If you offer a quality service and product there are always going to be new business opportunities from around the world. With that in mind, we recognised a growing demand for adding value to print with lamination and we wanted to take advantage of that opportunity.’
He continued, ‘The Mini 76 SD T is a very reliable and robust machine that meets all these specifications and it has immediately integrated into our workflow. It has enabled us to cut outsourcing costs and to respond quickly and efficiently to our customers’ lamination requirements. We believe it will also play an important part in helping us to grow our export capabilities.’
The Mini 76 SD thermal thin film laminator is the company’s bestselling machine worldwide. Designed for lamination of jobs up to B1 portrait, it can operate up to a top speed of 45 m/min, making it ideal for short to medium length jobs.
