Quality
Highest precision and accuracy
Our photo books are produced with high quality standards in the book production center in Nittenau and have the seal of approval from Vivat liber.
This starts at the print of our photo books with the digital printing machines (INDIGO 5000) from Hewlett Packard and the Xeicon machine for reel-fed. The covers and insides of the books are manufactured in four-color process printing.
While the cover is laminated and advanced into a hardcover with a machine adhesive binding with PUR glue assembles the block.
After the trimming both parts are put together and checked electronically.
The bookbindery has longtime experience in binding hard-wearing books for libraries and applies these skills to photo books. The books have also been successfully tested by an independent testing organization.
