首都印企品牌巡礼

Export Printing 　　Being a dynamic metropolitan like Beijing, when the international trading capability and the production performance of her printing enterprises have already met the global standard, and her domestic labor output and integrated production cost still remain competitive when compared with the U.S and European countries, the trend for Beijing exporting her printing services to oversea markets is inevitable. 　　There are few printing enterprises in Beijing skilful at exporting printing services. From the marketing point of view, these companies possess multi-lingual business websites, and part of them are equipped with automatic price quoting and order taking system, implement transparent and equal trading regulations, and have built professional teams who are very familiar with foreign languages, international culture and business ethics. Their sales staff are good at international trading practice and can prepare quotation and contracts in foreign languages according to customers' requirement, so as to ensure mutual understanding, friendship and trust when communicating with foreigners as well as smoothness and effectiveness in contract execution. From the production point of view, these companies adopt simplified but efficient work process, perfect operation logistics and project management, as well as timely tracking of quality and production progress. Part of them have also achieved accreditation in ISO9002 Quality Assurance as well as relevant environmental protection standards, capable of satisfying the various requirement by international clients in aspects of production quality, delivery time and consciousness in environmental protection. 　　To establish competitive advantages in short-run jobs and long-run productivity, individual printing enterprises have also invested in highly efficient product-flow logistics and highly productive equipment, such as installation of infra-red ink dryer in multi-color offset press, CTP (computer-to-plate) output device and remote transmission technology of jumbo-sized electronic image documents. Besides printing services, these export printers also take care of shipping of products in cooperation with multinational freight forwarders to assist customers to deliver the printed materials to their designated countries or regions. 　　Railway and highway network between Europe and Beijing has rapidly developed since China becomes a WTO member. Efficiency for customs clearance of travelers and cargos has also substantially improved, and export duties for various types of commodities to Europe are gradually sliding down. Being the land transport hub for north China, through taking the trans-Siberian railway or highways, there are currently direct land-transportation linkages between Beijing and various countries in European hinterland. As a result, Beijing is now more competitive than China's southern cities in terms of distance and time when delivering cargos to Europe via land transport means. At present, the combined cost for paper and printing services in Europe is still far above the China's counterpart, and as Euro remains strong and firm in the near future, the trend for Beijing's printing enterprises exporting to Europe will be growing popular in coming years. 　　China Printing Corporation, C&C Joint Printing Co., (Beijing) Co., Ltd., Beijing Shengtong Color Printing Co., Ltd. and Empire Printing Co., Ltd are some of the renowned export companies in China's capital. China Printing Corporation has established her overseas department since 1998, till now CPC has produced over 35 million books and booklets in 25 languages for distribution to over 20 countries and earned herself a good reputation by both the high quality printing work and considerate service from their clients
