Swiss Digital Print Service Provider Exploits Commercial Opportunities with KODAK NEXPRESS Digital Production Color Presses

Peter Fischli, co-founder and managing director of buysite, says the Swiss company operates in a highly dynamic niche.

"We're not looking for jobs in the low-quality segment, copy shop services and the anonymity of web to print," said Fischli. "Our concentration on short runs, variability and flexible finishing sets us apart from offset. We really come into our own when a client wants an original, customized solution. We do the things that many others would consider too complicated."

According to Fischli, digital printing is increasingly popular because of the fast-turnaround times it affords. Seventy percent of all jobs handled by the NEXPRESS Presses on any given day are submitted to buysite less than 24 hours previously.

"Each job spends an average of just one day at our facility before being delivered to the client or fed to the next step in the production chain," Fischli said.

In combination with the KODAK NEXPRESS Glossing Unit, color prints coated with transparent dry ink can be given a striking high-gloss finish - either the full size or selected areas only. Spot glossing produces a particularly attractive matte-gloss finish on matte-coated paper and carton materials.

Fischli is unequivocal in his assessment of the NEXPRESS Presses: "When I look at the images and the screening technology, I'm in no doubt that Kodak beats its rivals hands down," he said.
