Scotland: Murdoch unveils full color printing press

Posted by Jean Yves Chainon on October 31, 2007 at 10:42 AM
Rupert Murdoch opened the Eurocentral printing plant in Scotland, and claimed it to be the world’s largest and fastest plant – with full color capability.

 
This opening is the first stage of News International’s £650 million printing press modernization program, which will allow all company newspapers to be printed in full color..

The new presses will publish the Scottish editions of News International’s four national titles, The Sun, The Times, News of the World and The Sunday Times.

The new plant can produce 86,000 copies an hour of a full color newspaper up to 144 pages in size, said Murdoch, which is about three times the speed of previous presses.

News International has also signed a long-term contract to print the Daily Telegraph and Sunday Telegraph at Eurocentral.
