Description
TPR is in business for 30 years. Its core activity includes doing the prepress, publishing services and other printing activities. It is using offset printing techniques, gold printing, dry (blind) printing and digital printing, as well as all binding and finishing services in the production process.
Main products are catalogues, brochures, professional books, monographs, calendars and other printed material.
Currently, TPR is working on the outdated offset printing machine, which has limited capacity and limited features. Many of its features require manual handling which results in significant errors and many scrap material and low productivity.
With this project, Company is investing into new offset machine, with advanced features. It will significantly increase company’s capacity.
New technology is characterized by high speed and low energy consumption. It has possibility of printing 16,000 sheets (the old one has cap. of 6,000 sheets per hour). As a result of increased capacity and productivity, Company will be able to accept new clients within new business sectors (food and pharmaceuticals will be its new focus sectors) and expand to new geographical markets (e.g. Kvarner, Istria, Slovenia).
TRP will also be able to add new products to its product range (eco products, premium catalogues, labels for food and beverages companies, carboard packaging), leading to even further expansion of clients’ base.
The investment will result in lower consumption of raw materials (plate, paper, ink, alcohol) and lower energy consumption.
In addition to increasing company’s revenues, this investment should lower overall operating costs, ultimately leading to increase of Company’s profit and competitiveness in general.
Summary of project results
The offset printing machine is one the most important machines in the printing company TPR, responsible for producing various printouts. Before this project, TPR was operating on the outdated machine, with low capacity and limited features. Many of its features required manual handling, which resulted in significant errors and many scrap material. Productivity was low, and TPR was not able to fully satisfy the growing demand from the market, resulting in lost market opportunities.
With this project, Company invested into a new offset machine, with modern, advanced features, that significantly increased company’s capacity.
The new offset printing machine is characterized by high speed and low energy consumption. It has possibility of printing 16,000 sheets per hour (the old one had cap. of 6,000 sheets per hour).
As a result of this investment, and increased capacity and productivity, Company has now increased the portfolio of its clients, in Croatia and in Slovenia.
As a result of the investment, TRP has also expanded its product range to eco products, premium catalogues, labels for food and beverages companies, carboard packaging, etc., therefore significant increase of revenue and profit is expected from 2024 onwards.
The investment shows a notable green effect, especially in terms of savings in the raw materials consumption (plate, paper, ink, alcohol) and lower energy consumption.
