The company offers a range of sophisticated services, such as scented varnishes and advanced UV coating, that help differentiate the company from its competitors among the area’s direct mail customers.
At drupa 2008, Kyburz ordered four KODAK VERSAMARK DH90 nine inch, four color inkjet printheads to be installed on its Scheffer finishing line. The company already operates four finishing lines with 4.25 inch VERSAMARK Printheads for its diverse applications, and plans to enhance its offerings in segments such as customer loyalty programs and retail coupons.
