Baldwin Secures Order in Excess of $1 Million for Blanket Cleaning Systems in China

Business Wire
Baldwin Technology Company, Inc. (NYSE Amex: BLD), a global
leader in process automation technology for the print media
industry, today announced that it has secured an equipment order
valued at over $1 million from C&C Joint Printing Co., (H.K.)
Ltd in China. In 2009, C&C was one of the first group of 48
Chinese enterprises that received the honorable title of “Hong
Kong-Guangdong Cleaner Production Partners (manufacturing)”, and
the company still retains the title in 2011.
Baldwin will supply high performance IMPACT® automatic blanket
cleaning systems to retrofit Heidelberg sheetfed presses (for a
total of 84 printing units) in three of C&C’s factories located
in Shenzhen, Shanghai and Beijing. Baldwin has also contracted to
supply PREPAC® cloth rolls to these three locations for two years,
ensuring the best possible results for cleaning.
The IMPACT® cloth systems will replace the original brush
systems and upgrade the total cleaning performance by utilizing
Baldwin’s PREPAC® cloths. The PREPAC® cloths are pre-saturated with
cleaning solution to ensure superb cleaning results, while offering
the exceptional advantage of drastically reducing VOC
emissions.
As C&C Joint Printing Co. has received the Chinese
government’s endorsement as a “green” factory, the upgrade to
Baldwin’s low-VOC system is instrumental in assisting C&C with
continuing to meet the rigorous standards required for the
endorsement. The benefits of the Baldwin IMPACT® cleaning system
extend even further to improved efficiency and cost savings of
consumables related to the blanket cleaning process.
Peter Hultberg, Baldwin’s vice president, global sales and
marketing, stated, “With its green manufacturing endorsement,
C&C will be prominent in demonstrating to other Chinese
printers how to create and build clean-production facilities. Many
potential Baldwin customers that are also pursuing cleaner
production in manufacturing will visit the three C&C print
centers, and in the process, they will learn about the various
benefits of Baldwin’s IMPACT® system and how they too can lower
VOCs, reduce waste and improve productivity and efficiency.”
Chau Chi Keung, assistant general manager of C&C Joint
Printing Co., said, “We are impressed by the capability and
advantages of the Baldwin system and are expecting outstanding
results as we progress into a more environmentally-conscious
future”.
Alfred Chan, Baldwin’s technical sales and service director for
Asia-Pacific, remarked, “C&C has achieved outstanding status in
printing and in utilization of green technology. Baldwin has
maintained a strong relationship with C&C for years, and we are
proud to be selected once again to supply a product that so
perfectly meets its production and environmental needs.”
