Commercial printer

Last summer we acquired a massive Goss/Manroland Universal 70 press from Color Web Printers, which used it to print The Gazette daily newspaper in Cedar Rapids. It’s previously owned but immaculately maintained.
Disassembling the 220-foot long, 442-ton press took months and required a team of experts. It took 55 semi-trucks to transport components to Washington. Those parts are here and reassembly is underway with a goal of getting the press operational by July.
It will handle the company’s current portfolio of more than 30 daily newspapers and community weeklies, plus commercial clients. In addition to The Daily Herald, the company prints The Daily World of Aberdeen, the Peninsula Daily News in Port Angeles, the Bellingham Herald, and the Centralia Chronicle.
The Lakewood press’ 11 towers and five folders give newspaper publishers and commercial customers greater printing options. Sound Publishing will become one of the largest cold-set web printers in the five-state region of Washington, Alaska, Montana, Idaho, and Oregon.
