The largest retail print specialists in Benelux, Em. de Jong, has ordered a Landa S10P nanographic printing press from Landa Digital Printing.

The 41in press, set to be installed at the Em. de Jong’s headquarters in Baarle-Nassau, the Netherlands, is expected to enable the company to respond to ‘ever more complex retail print requirements for increased volumes of shorter run, collated jobs.’

According to Em. de Jong, the Landa S10P will allow them to add new print services such as larger POP and POS graphics, as well as increase productivity and reduce time to market. They also claim that it will provide customers with increased flexibility and personalisation opportunities.

‘The size, speed, quality and versatility of the Landa S10P is unique,’ explained Em. de Jong CEO Stijn de Jong. ‘For our POS, POP and commercial print markets, we currently operate a number of toner based digital presses, offset presses and large format inkjet printers. And they all have their place, but we always look ahead to the next technology that can give us a competitive edge. The Landa S10P is that product – smart-tech for the future that can drive new business and add value to the process.

‘Because the Landa S10P is based on an offset sheet size, we will be able to leverage this size increase to significantly improve productivity. This will also mean that we can streamline the process, enabling us to meet increased demand for shorter run length work. In addition, as the Landa press can print on any uncoated stock, we’re looking to extend that beyond our current substrate types, to give customers even more choice.’

Established in 1906, Em. de Jong is a fourth-generation family business employing 1200 staff and with seven production sites across the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium. Servicing many retail outlets in Western Europe, the company produces and delivers thousands of printed jobs per week, including a wide range of POS and POP graphics, brochures and leaflets. 

Manuel Schrutt, general manager EMEA at Landa Digital Printing, added, ‘We’re proud to add Em. de Jong to the Landa family and to extend our customer base in this important region. What’s more, the continued validation that our speed, print quality and format size is exactly what companies like Em. de Jong are searching for, suggests that Nanography is still the technology of choice for forward thinking businesses looking to future proof their offerings.’
