Konica Minolta announced the installation of its JETvarnish 3D Evolution Press at Seidl’s Bindery Inc. (Seidl’s). Located in Houston, Texas, Seidl’s is an award-winning trade bindery shop that provides truly integrated, creative solutions for high-end embellished print. With a rich history of innovation, embracing specialty inks, finishes and enhancements, the company continually looks to lead the way with embellished print.
Seidl’s purchased Konica Minolta’s JETvarnish 3D 52L embellishment press in 2018, and after five years deemed it a natural step to upgrade to the JETvarnish 3D Evolution. With a much more robust platform, 29” X 47” sheet size and 800 GSM stock compatibility, the new press will have a transformational impact on Seidl’s business, empowering it to competitively deliver short-run, high quality, embellished print. The upgrade will position the company to be the top bindery shop for digital embellishment in United States.
“Adding the JETvarnish 3D Evolution will increase the value we provide our customers and provide new opportunities to expand our business,” said Matt Seidl, vice president, Seidl’s Bindery. “The press is one of the world’s most productive B2 digital embellishment solutions, complementing our existing line-up of digital presses and supporting our mission to provide customers with beautiful print and packaging.”
A true influencer in digital embellishment, with access to all kinds of technology, Seidl’s continues to rely on Konica Minolta for its decorative print needs. The company has been recognized multiple times as a FSEA Gold Leaf award winner, always with some of the top work produced in North America on Konica Minolta equipment.
