The Wyndeham subsidiary ordered a Muller Martini Prima saddlestitcher last Thursday (29 August), and it is expected to be fully installed and live by this coming Monday (9 September).
The new finishing firepower is being installed at Impact Litho's main site, some three miles away from its present bindery, which will move to the main site. The company is also in the process of moving its paper store to the same plant.
Impact Litho managing director Peter Gubb said the consolidation was part of an on-going drive to improve efficiencies.
"It's going in as we speak and it will be running by Monday. Some of our finishing kit is getting on now. It makes little sense to move old kit," said Gubb.
