Commercial Print
Scodix offers a genuine solution to the business challenges facing commercial printers today: how to retain customers, attract new clients, and stay profitable in a cutthroat business. We understand that customer demands are continually growing and pricing gets more and more competitive.
Whether printing on digital or offset presses, printers are tasked with being innovative and responsive while keeping prices down.
The solution to this quandary is differentiation. Print Service Providers using Scodix digital enhancement presses can grow their business and improve profitability by charging premium prices for high quality pages that touch the senses with print that literally stands out, leaves a lasting impression and delivers a genuine competitive edge.
A Clear advantage
Scodix offers print service providers a clear advantage by enabling them to perform all the enhancements needed to differentiate their products, in-house and under their own control.
What effect can you make?
By applying Scodix SENSE™, produced by Scodix Digital Enhancement Presses you can produce highly differentiated premium products, in-house, without sending work out for lamination, embossing, hot foil, or other embellishments. The added value of these digitally enhanced products means premium pricing can be charged, even for short runs – translating into higher profitability for the business.
