Zhengzhou Daily, a major newspaper publisher in central China, has ordered a second Goss Universal press to improve colour capacity and productivity.

Located in Zhengzhou, the capital city of Henan Province, the company also publishes Zhengzhou Evening News, Evening News Readers Digest and its online media www.zynews.com, as well as the flagship daily.

The new Universal 75 will include 16 shaftless units, two jaw folders and five reelstands, and joins an eight-unit Universal installed in 1999. The press will improve productivity and colourcapacity, and allow the facility to handle more contract print jobs. Currently over 20 different national newspaper titles are printed there, including the Economic Daily and China TV.

Since the first press was installed, Zhengzhou Daily has become a full-colour 12-page broadsheet daily. Its sister paper Zhengzhou Evening News was rated among the highest quality newspapers in China. Focused on local news stories and interesting topics, Zhengzhou Evening News has emerged as part of the daily life of local citizens and sustains the highest circulation in the city.

“As a leading newspaper company in the region, we realize that the best newspaper journalism will lose its impact without high print quality,” explains Mrs. Huang, vice president of Zhengzhou Daily. “We have benefited from the high performance of our first Universal press, as well as the dedicated and experienced Goss International sales and service team. Going through a comprehensive bidding process, the Universal press became an obvious champion among the other competing brands in both technology level and business value. We look forward to a new level of technology and productivity with this new addition to our press family.”

More than 5200 Universal press units have been installed worldwide – 500 of them in China – since the press series was launched  in 1991.
