Web power group to tour Australia and New Zealand

Best practice seminars on web offset production bring together an international team of experts on heatset and coldset printing.

The Web Offset Champion Group, a leading authority on all aspects of offset web printing, is about to bring its highly regarded seminars to local printers. Set up by a diverse group of suppliers, the local tour will feature high-profile industry identity, Nigel Wells, along with an impressive array of international experts, on its swing through Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Auckland this month.

Committed to enhancing productivity in web printing, the WOCG tour is being hosted by international and local member companies. It is targeted at senior executives, managers and supervisions staff working in web offset commercial heatset and newspaper coldset.

According to organiser Meredith Darke, the invitation-only tour has already provoked great interest with places filling up fast. “It’s not often the local industry can access this level of expertise in best practice. The line-up of speakers is as good as I’ve ever seen in one seminar. It’s got all the signs of being a seminal event for industry practices in the region,” she said.

The seminar is focused on generic best practice — not limited to a specific product, brand or geographical area. The expert speakers will systematically work through the key issues and share their international experience.

The programme is based on the WOCG’s best practice series of publications. The seventh guide, Total AM process colour control & alternative screening technologies will be launched at the seminar. In addition, research findings from some PrintCity projects will be presented. Attendees will receive high value reports and best practice guides.

The half-day sessions are on:
Melbourne Tuesday 19 August 2008
Brisbane Wednesday 20 August 2008
Sydney Thursday 21 August 2008
Auckland Tuesday 26 August 2008
