Muller Martini Opts to Halt Web Offset Press Production

HAUPPAUGE, NY—Citing low sales volume, Muller Martini will cease production of printing presses in the first half of 2015; however, it will continue to provide service support for printing press customers worldwide.

As part of its strategic realignment, the company will focus on print finishing, strengthened by its recent takeover of Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG's service and spare parts business for its saddlestitchers, perfect binders and thread-sealing machines.
