Printing houses of SEZ Technopolis Moscow printed more than 5 million copies of books

On the territory of the Moscow special economic zone, there are several printing houses involved in digital printing. They printed over 5 million copies in 2020 as informed by Gennady Degtev, CEO of SEZ Technopolis Moscow. “Organizations such as T8, Photoexpert, Onebook and Commandp are located in the special economic zone. In total, the circulation of published books in 2020 exceeded 5 million copies. About 4 million copies of books were printed in one printing house "T8" alone. These are publications of various genres - from popular classics to modern psychology and educational literature. The company specializes in printing short runs in a fully automatic mode using high technologies. The SEZ of Moscow values companies with unique solutions and develops infrastructure for their comfortable work”, pointed out Gennady Degtev. The technique the company uses can print ultra-small runs on a production scale, with a minimum of staff involved. Printers use cloud-based virtual storage, digital content management and digital production. The product sales market is over 35 thousand stores around the world. T8 also provides for the “print on demand” technology, when a book goes to print if it already has a customer on the platforms of online stores. “Book on demand” can be purchased at any online bookstore without direct contact with the publisher. It takes 24 hours to produce and deliver it to the addressee. The technology allows you to print books in one copy at the cost of a large batch. Such opportunities are unique today, they allowed the company to successfully overcome the challenges of 2020, says its CEO Sergey Latyntsev. “In the first wave of the pandemic, 70 percent of publishing houses in the country froze book printing. The rest of the publishers either postponed printing or printed only part of their publishing plans. Those who have continued to produce books have shown great interest in print-on-demand for books below 500 copies. It was this trend that allowed T8 to get out of the pandemic without losses and to maintain production volumes in 2020 at the level of the previous year. In their authors have the opportunity to be published and remain in demand thanks to this solution. The printing house constantly works with such publishing houses and organizations as Alpina Business Books, Publishing House Piter, Ripol Classic Group of Companies, Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow Book Publishing House and others”, he summarized. ---------------------- Press service of the SEZ "Technopolis Moscow" Phone: +7 916 516-15-46 Mail: pr@technomoscow.ru [ mailto:pr@technomoscow.ru ] Subscribe to the SEZ "Technopolis Moscow" in social networks, follow the main news of the SEZ in telegram-channel [ https://t.me/technopolismoscow ]  and receive all the most important news delivered to your mail in our weekly newsletter [ http://events.technomoscow.ru/subscribe/?utm_source=site_technomoscow ] .
