July 15, 2010 futureproof: easy adaptation to changing market conditions Printing companies have to make investment decisions for presses intended to produce for between four years and sometimes ten years or more. In earlier times, it was primarily economic upturns and downturns that made investment planning difficult. This is still the case, but these days there is yet another factor to consider: changing demand structures in the marketplace. These changes are product-related (e.g. an increased volume of print enhancement) and production-related (e.g. run length changes). Companies must react to both otherwise there is a threat of plant underutilization. This is where the new futureproof concept offers a solution. With futureproof, customers who purchase a new manroland sheetfed offset press receive an assurance that they can add retrofits within five years and thus respond to changes in demand. The customer selects retrofit options from a catalog containing items that have increased in number over the years and will be expanded even further. More
