HAN e-Newsletter Issue October 2006
Welcome to the October Issue of Heidelberg Australia and New
Zealand's (HAN's) e-Newsletter.
There is much discussion when printers get together about competition from low cost markets such as China and the rationalisation of the industry as the big groups acquire smaller players in Australia and New Zealand. Interestingly the same challenges are faced in markets around the world. Recently Jürgen Ströbele, editor of Heidelberg News interviewed Werner Albrecht, director of Heidelberg's Market Centre Germany/Switzerland (Andy Jensen's counterpart) about the European situation. The parallels to our market are surprising. Click here to read the interview.
As well, we also bring you a story about one customer's experience with their Heidelberg A3 format press and workflow and an article about the HAN Customer Support Centre plus lots more in the October issue.
Give us feedback on our e-newsletter. We hope you are finding our Newsletter useful, please keep sending feedback. Tell us what you like and what you don't, and any suggestions for content are welcomed.
Best regards,
Glenn Plummer
