Management Software for the Printing Industry

According to the British Printing Industries Federation, the paper and printing industries are among the UK’s largest manufacturing groups, providing services to all parts of the economy, and are regarded as important indicators of economic performance.

Print serves just about every aspect of the economy from central and local government to financial services, retailing, distribution, travel & tourism and manufacturing. The value of sales by companies in the printing industry is around £14.5 billion and the UK printing industry utilises around 140,000 employees in about 10,500 companies which are spread throughout the UK.

When Labelgraphics decided to spend approximately 2 million Euros on new plant and machinery, the business knew it needed a robust and reliable software system to support the company’s new printing capability and ambitious growth plans. As Microsoft Dynamics AX is a fully integrated system with all information in one central database, it enabled the company to do fulfill its ambitions.
