With more than 9,000 employees in 30 countries and an annual turnover of more than €1.5 billion ($1.3 billion USD), Paragon Group is a major global player in direct mail, transactional print, business outsourcing and packaging. Within the DACH & CEE region, Paragon Germany employs more than 1,200 employees across eight locations in Germany, Czech Republic and Poland.
Looking to replace legacy inkjet imprinting equipment on a direct mail production line in Schwandorf, Germany, the company has turned to Fujifilm and its industry-leading imprinting solutions – installing a pair of one-meter-wide Fujifilm imprinting bars to print to the front and the reverse of the web.
“There were a number of reasons we went with Fujifilm over rival systems,” said Bernd Wein, Paragon operations director, direct mail. “We liked that they fully own all the technologies – the printheads as well as the integration technology. It gives us confidence to be dealing with one partner – a partner that we were confident could offer the service and support we need to ensure ongoing smooth operation and the swift resolution to any problems.
“It’s also proven technology,” Wein continued. “Fujifilm has a long heritage in inkjet, and its imprinting solutions are tried and tested. The fact that Fujifilm acquired Unigraphica in 2022 was also a factor in our investment decision. The combination of Fujifilm and Unigraphica inkjet systems integration expertise was a very attractive proposition."
