The Bevan Group is one of the first companies in South Africa to take delivery of an Oc'e VarioPrint 6250, the world's most productive and fastest duplex printer.
The Oc'e printer has been installed at the Bevan Group's custom equipped print-on-demand department, together with other state-of-the-art digital printing equipment.
The company's print works is located in Somerset West, in the Western Cape. Anton Botha, co-founder of the Bevan Group, says: "The group has for many years provided direct mail solutions to a number of companies.
"The VP6250 is a great addition to an already effective stable of offset litho and digital presses. Our vision is to provide faster, more cost effective printing solutions to our current market, as well as scoping new products to be introduced to untapped markets."
The Bevan Group's direct mail business demands personalisation, mass volume and access to the latest databases. The VP6250 can accommodate all of these requirements and more.
Botha explains: "After much investigation, we considered the VP6250 to be the most versatile solution in the currently highly-traded print on demand market. Its A4 simplex and duplex versatility, as well as on-line finishing, notwithstanding its excellent capabilities for short to medium-book printing, provides us with more rolling power required to service these markets well."
Oc'e South Africa's Mark Ninow adds: "There are major benefits for companies like the Bevan Group who invest in this state-of-the-art technology that allows up to 15 000 digitally printed pages per hour. The fastest high volume cutsheet machine on earth, the VP6250 is also the only machine in the world that can print double-sided tabs."
The Oc'e VarioPrint 6250 cutsheet printer features the new Oc'e Gemini Instant Duplex technology to press toner images into both sides of the paper simultaneously. Designed for high-end commercial and corporate printing markets, the Oc'e VarioPrint 6250 produces 250 duplex A4/letter or 132 duplex A3/ledger prints per minute, making it at least 70% faster than other high-volume cutsheet duplex processes when printing on larger formats.
The Bevan Group provides a full service facility, including litho printing, personalisation, mailroom and now print-on-demand services, all under one roof. Clients include Absa, Cotlands, FinWeek, Pick 'n Pay, Mutual & Federal, the SABC licensing department, King Pie, Sasol and Woolworths.

Botha concludes: "We believe the VP6250 will allow us to continue serving our current direct mail and print on-demand clients, as well as a host of new clients, more effectively and efficiently by saving time and enhancing quality."
