Especially in difficult times you must be able to rely on your partners. The cooperation between our customers and colleagues in the Czech Republic and Slovakia is a good example. The printing industry there, as in many other countries, was also hit very hard by the effects of the COVID 19 pandemic.
On the one hand, capacity utilization in packaging printing was even higher than before the outbreak. On the other hand, commercial printing was in sharp decline. Slowly the path is moving back towards normality and the future will show how this crisis has not only changed the printing industry in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
The contact between our colleagues and their customers was unbroken and solutions were always found under the difficult conditions. Our technicians were always welcomed with a smile (under the mask) in the printing houses and the work could start in compliance with all hygiene regulations. Once again, the importance of a strong partnership has been demonstrated.
Many thanks to all customers from the Czech Republic and Slovakia and to all employees of Heidelberg Czech Republic and Heidelberg Slovakia!
Stay safe and healthy!
