Sheetfed and Web heat-set presses,
Headley Brothers offers flexibility,
speed and quality in the production
of magazines, journals and colour
work.
STRENGTH
IN NUMBERS
We have a well-equipped Print Department
which is designed to cater for high
production needs. An impressive perfecting
capacity in colour (both sides printed
in one machine operation) in 16 page
sections on three unit Speedmaster
Sheetfed presses and two Heatset Web
presses and 24 page sections on our
brand new Heidelberg Sunday 2000 Heatset
Web press, the first of its kind in
the UK. Additional perfecting power
in two colour and mono on four unit
and two unit Speedmaster presses for
speed and economy. A SRA2 four colour
press dedicated to the printing of
covers. A small offset capacity for
carriers, reader service cards and
flyers.
FLEXIBILITY
Our Print Department is ideally set
up to meet the demands of weekly and
monthly magazine and journal production.
We have an even balance in capacity
so that work can easily be switched
from Sheetfed to Web and vice versa
to meet variations in print run and
special requirements. Economic running
of 16 and 8-page sections by Sheetfed
and 24 and 16-page sections by web
ensure economic pagination in eight page
leaps. We allow four page sections
to be run on Sheetfed presses and
combined with Web sections at the
binding stage. Spot or additional
colours are catered for, Sheetfed
or Web sections can be folded on line
or sheeted.
