We are printing in the format B1 on a 8c printing machine and in the format VLF 162 on a 4c and a 5c + lacquer machine. PASSAVIA is known for their excellently qualified printers for a long time already. With all technical innovations: they still make "the difference" at the machines – for your perfect printing result.
Our in-house PASSAVIA-standard is extremely high. What's special for others is just normal to us. That attitude, experience, accompaniment and collaboration is highly appreciated by the customers who visit us at our machines! And that's how we win the many awards in this segment.
Our specialties are photographer books in NovaTon, DuaTon (duplex) or PAN4C procedure. There we are printing with highly pigmented colours and extremely high density – for making them appear brilliant and with high contrast. The materials used by us for printing are tested: we don't experiment with colours,  printing cylinders, rubber blankets and additives and don't save money in the wrong place!
In our printing department we live out our passion for print!
