Engaging in commercial digital printing, digital large-format eco-solvent printing, AutoCAD printing, and others like pre-press and post-press tasks encompassing graphic designing, lamination, binding, etc., Concord Business Centre has been in the business over the last 30 years, spearheaded by two brothers, Mr HA Manohar and HA Yadunadan. On the digital printing front, what it takes to produce digitally-printed quality graphics at the company’s facility is a fleet of digital production presses, predominantly Canon models.
The long-standing loyalist of Canon printing technology, Concord Business Center has recently invested in a Canon imagePRESS V700 digital colour production press. The press has been supplied and installed by Canon India.
“Canon has been our most trusted and tested brand. We have been primarily using Canon digital presses alongside others in our facility,” says Mr Manohar, Proprietor of Concord Business Center. He adds, “The first and foremost Canon machine installed in our facility was a CLC-1180 multi-function printer, in the year 1995, followed by new and upgraded models one after another. So far, we have owned six Canon presses and the iPR V700 is the latest one arrived in our facility in February this year.”
According to Mr Manohar, the decision to install the iPR V700 was driven by our experience of Canon’s ever known prowess to deliver superior print quality in faster speed over other machines in its class. “Prior to this sixth Canon digital press in our facility, we even thought of choosing a different press from another reputed brand. We dropped the plan because no other machines would be comparable with Canon in many aspects and parameters,” he mentions.
Mr Manohar asserts that the speed and media flexibility of iPR V700 have eventually ticked all the boxes of requirements at Concord Business Center to produce a vast range of end-products. The company’s current product portfolio in the ‘commercial’ category include visiting cards, brochures, menu cards, calendars, stickers, invitations, certificates, among many others.
