In this series of features, Printweek is highlighting some of the UK's world-beating development and engineering businesses: Rollem plays its cards right

摘要

This developer of bespoke finishing devices is marking 90 years of manufacturing this year. About half of our Best of British subjects and future candidates have surprisingly long histories. They've survived by adapting to the huge changes in technologies, social and economic conditions over the years and still manage to present relevant products to the market. Often they're successful exporters too. Rollem certainly ticks these boxes. The end of this year marks its 90th birthday and today's products remain on the (literal) cutting edge, integrating finishing with digital and analogue presses. Turnover is currently ￡3m, with 80% of work exported.
