The theme of Komori France at Graphitec-Convertec 2009 was “KOMORI ENVIRONMENT”. This straightforward and trendy theme, which imagined “LITHRONE equals Green”, is an important theme showing our approach for the reduction of environmental burdens, such as non-alcohol, reducing waste paper and so on. During the exhibition, our salesmen gave detailed explanation concerning the theme to those who came by our booth.
At Komori booth covering 306 square meters, we exhibited the LITHRONE S29 which is 5-color 29-inch sheetfed offset press with coater (LS-529 + coater), and we conducted 5-6 live demos every day. We also set up three exhibit zones for Offset press, Chambon, and DoNet in the booth and many visitors came every day. In order to express our gratitude to the visitors, we provided the green reception floor imagined eco, which was 60cm higher than the floor level of the exhibition hall.
