Presstek Corporate Headquarters
The holder of over 500 patents, Presstek is recognized as the world’s premier provider of environmentally responsible DI® digital offset presses and computer-to-plate (CTP) solutions. Presstek has been the recipient of many prestigious GATF InterTech awards and has been recognized by numerous other industry sources for innovations in business and technology. We have pioneered the advancement of digital offset printing solutions for commercial printing applications by:
* Inventing the technology incorporated in DI presses;
* Inventing chemistry-free imaging of printing plates;
* Significantly streamlining the print production workflow through our many innovations;
* Implementing workflows that transition printing from a skill-based craft to a modern manufacturing process;
* Introducing the Presstek 52DI, a highly-automated landscape format DI press with a larger sheet size for higher production environments.
From 1987 to 2004, Presstek was a technology provider partnering with the industry’s largest press manufacturers and distribution networks to deliver products enabled by its technology. During this time Presstek DI technology was implemented in presses from Ryobi, Heidelberg, Xerox, KBA, and Kodak. The most notable of these is the Heidelberg QuickMaster DI, which was introduced in 1995 and forever changed the way short-run color printing was produced. During this period, Presstek was also the first to develop and bring to market chemistry-free CTP, and is still an industry leader in this area.
In 2004, Presstek acquired ABDick and Precision Lithograining. The acquisition of Precision Lithograining allowed us to strengthen our plate manufacturing capability, enhancing our ability to meet our customers’ current and future needs. By acquiring ABDick, with its proud tradition of 120 years of printing innovation, its great depth of understanding of the industry, and its large customer base, Presstek gained access to a direct sales and service force that has allowed us to develop an even closer relationship with our customer base, becoming the business partner that will lead these companies into the digital future.
