Printing merger creates jobs, better technology
Paarl Gravure and Paarl Web have amalgamated into Paarl Media Cape, following a R700 million investment. Through the combination of web offset and publication gravure technology, a unique platform is created to satisfy diverse requirements.
Added to this is the expanded bindery, equipped with the latest technology and reportedly the largest binding facility in Africa.
The combination of technologies provides strong flexibility to cater for the production of different formats, paper and finishing requirements. The group aims to meet the unique needs of the magazine publishers and retailers, as well as those clients specifically focusing on high volumes and value added services, such as inserting and mailing.
More than 150 permanent additional jobs have been created in Cape Town through the amalgamation, together with many more on a contractual basis. This brings permanent employment at the company to 470 and contractual workers to approximately 300.
