JohnsByrne president Corey Gustafson said: “We are committed to investing in people and technology to drive our success as well as the success of our customers.
“We continue to add equipment that brings what we promise customers – speed-to-market, excellent quality and innovation.
“When looking for the right equipment to add to our press room, we extensively search out the latest technology and are excited about the newest printing and packaging capabilities.
“In one sense, JohnsByrne’s Limitless Pressroom environment is as much a laboratory as a high-tech factory floor.
“And, joining several other brand-new additions, the new press will provide a new level of repeatable quality and continue to advance our strategic, vertically integrated business model: a true end-to-end solution that defies supply chain disruptions as it provides single-source accountability, superior quality, and distinct competitive advantage to our customers.”
Based in Illinois, JohnsByrne specialises in folding cartons, speciality packaging, point-of-sale and high-impact direct mail solutions.
