He continues: “With the move to H-UV the process control must be spot on so, although we have no issues with our water, we want to ensure the hardness and pH is exactly right.
“Filtration of the dampening will help in this respect, too, but the primary reason behind this purchase is the saving in chemistry costs. We believe we will cut our chemistry bill by 60% with the beta.f.”
The company has been using Technotrans’ temperature control technology from the beginning. Now the company is being installing water treatment, filtration systems and dampening solution filtration. It has been a great addition to the company’s resources and also it shows company’s great reliance on Technotrans’ peripherals.

Production Printing And Its Future
Commissioning editor of Smithers Pira, John Nelson has given some analysis on the future of production print industry. Here in his analysis, he highlighted that though the volume of printing has been decreasing but the value of printing is on a high rise.
Production printing pertains a concept that a data resides on a person’s or an organisation’s PC and it is further digitally printed and send over to another person or an organisation.
This could be due to the fact that online books and resources are available and many readers inclusive of students, teachers and general readers use online resources for reading. Through online resources, readers get books free of cost or the cost associated with them is very low as compared to printed books and resources.
Moreover, environmental factors take into account as for the production of papers, companies have to cut down the trees. Also, recycling of paper is a big issue. If used papers are burnt over, they could cause environmental pollution.
In connection, there is a decline in postal service activities as well. As per statistics, there is a decline of 2.6% in 2014 as compared to 2013. People are more relying on emails and messengers.
Moreover, the analysis shows that the use of inkjet printing will increase as compared to toners. The industry will envisage a growth of 4.9% from the year 2016 to 2021.
The Future Of Production Printing
Majorly production printing has demand in the financial sector where analysts do analysis on financial records and future forecasts. Moreover, in government offices, regulatory authorities it has a great demand.
Though the companies are moving towards paperless offices and different software publishers are providing digital signature’s facility. This is to ensure that, you don’t have to print and sign the document. You can simply do it by using your computer.
Denmaur To Become A Carbon-Balance Company
Denmaur a paper merchant company is taking steps in association with CarbonCo to become a carbon-balance company.
CarbonCo is working with World Land Trust (WLT) to make this world carbon-free. Under this scheme all of Denmaur’s carbon emissions will be calculated and strategies are devised to protect habitats which are suffering. CarbonCo promotes carbon balance print procedures, carbon balanced papers, logos for carbon balanced print and end users WLT carbon certificates.
Peter Sommerville, the marketing director of Denmaur expressed “This is probably something we were considering for a while. We can carbon balance any product we sell so we thought if we are promoting the service it is slightly disingenuous if we are not seeking to do the same thing with our business.
“Danny Doogan (Denmaur group sustainability manager) looked into it and I was happy to endorse it and submit it to the board for a decision.
“I think it will be commonplace soon and most companies will end up taking this sort of action.”
Denmaur To Become A Carbon-Balance Company
It has been a great progress to make this world carbon-free. In the manufacturing of papers and papers related stuff, there is a huge cutting down of trees. CarbonCo is promoting those products and materials which could cause lesser cutting-down of trees.
Denmaur is procuring 12 energy-efficient Scania trucks in order to further minimize its carbon emissions. Such carbon emissions are very dangerous for natural environment and effects human life, animal life and wild life badly.
There have been considerable steps taken by World Land Trust and CarbonCo on the awareness of carbon emissions. More of the companies are attracted towards this concept. It has been a good notion that paper manufacturing companies are adopting solutions which are more environment-friendly. More awareness programs would help brining more understanding in companies and people about hazardous carbon emissions.
