bakergoodchild announces further expansion

Print Solutions

Birmingham based bakergoodchild has announced it has significantly added to its equipment plant list, with purchases of new kit. This follows soon after the company’s recent move to a new, purpose built premises and the launch of a new corporate identity at the end of last year.

The new equipment that has been purchased includes a Matrix MX-370DP industrial laminator, a Ricoh Pro C9100, another Polar guillotine (adding to its existing one), and an additional MBO folder, but this time with a cross fold option.

The recent expansion has seen the company focus on targeting the transactional mail sector, which covers the areas of business critical mail, secure mailings, statements, renewals, and billings. This follows the announcement last year that bakergoodchild had attained ISO 27001, the certification which ensures that they meet the highest standards for secure production. At the new site, a dedicated secure printing room has also been built, specifically for this purpose. In line with this, security has also been stepped up at the new premises, with entry for employees now being via smart card only.

Managing director Lorraine Burnell stated, ‘This latest spend on new equipment adds to our existing plant list and capabilities, and demonstrates our intent and commitment to our business as we continue to grow and expand further in our new base.’

Lorraine added, ‘As a growing and developing business it is important that we continually invest, add to, and look to update our equipment, as a requirement to meet our customer’s ever growing demands to satisfy their mailing and print applications.’
