Orders surge to 10 year record high at Manroland

Order intake for new presses at Manroland Sheetfed reached a 10 year record high in June.  In February this year the company cancelled short-time working and started ramping up production at its factory in Offenbach – where in 2021 the company celebrates building its iconic presses for 150 years – in anticipation of increased demand.

Peter Conrady, Head of Global Sales, said, “The reasons for the strong order intake in June, and for the year to date, are two-fold: since the beginning of 2021, we have been seeing an increasing number of projects for both 700 and 900 size presses, as printers and converters around the world began to regain investment confidence post COVID-19. Moreover, the ROLAND 700 Evolution  and the recently launched ROLAND 900 Evolution  series presses are state-of-the-art technology that offer significant commercial advantages. Our customers recognise this.”
