ブログ について Offset Press Supply Launches B2B Digital Marketplace for North American Printers

The commercial printing industry in North America is witnessing a transformative shift in supply chain management with the launch of Offset Press Supply, a specialized B2B e-commerce platform designed specifically for offset printing operations. This digital marketplace eliminates traditional distribution inefficiencies by connecting printers directly with manufacturers and industry experts.

Offset Press Supply's innovative approach centers on direct sourcing, bypassing conventional distribution channels that often involve multiple markups and information asymmetry. The platform enables commercial printers to transact directly with vetted manufacturers, offering competitive pricing, faster response times, and transparent purchasing processes.

The platform introduces a flexible logistics model that gives printers complete control over their shipping arrangements. Businesses can utilize their preferred freight providers and existing transportation accounts, allowing for optimized cost management and operational efficiency.

Offset Press Supply has secured exclusive North American distribution rights for ATÉCÉ, a leading European manufacturer of offset printing consumables. Renowned for reliability and performance, ATÉCÉ products are used extensively in demonstration centers and production facilities of major printing equipment manufacturers worldwide.

The platform extends beyond mere commerce, offering a comprehensive resource hub featuring technical education materials, standard operating procedures (SOPs), performance insights on printing consumables, and in-depth analyses of infrared (IR) drying systems and ultraviolet (UV) curing technologies.

Offset Press Supply was founded by three printing industry experts with a combined century of experience: Clark Scherer, Grieg Heimbuch, and Michael Bates. Based in New Berlin, Wisconsin, the team brings deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing commercial printers in supply chain management and technological advancement.

Their vision focuses on introducing innovative procurement models to enhance supply chain efficiency while elevating technical capabilities across the industry, helping North American commercial printers reduce costs and improve productivity in an increasingly competitive market.
