Copresco
takes pride in showing guests our modern and hospital-clean 14,000 sq.ft.
digital printing facilities.
Our latest visitors were
high school students from Carmel Montessori Academy in Warrenville.
Before starting the plant tour, Copresco president
and CEO Steve Johnson told the group that we specialize in the digital printing
of publications, books and manuals.
He explained how we
combine a skilled professional staff with advanced technical tools to
frequently accomplish Mission Impossible turnaround jobs.
The comprehensive tour included our production department, digital color and black & white press room as well as our bindery, warehousing and shipping facilities, and offices.
While the Montessori high school students enjoyed a firsttime look around a digital print shop, a group from the College of DuPage came to us with a different agenda. "We wanted to see processes that you can't see in the classroom," says Mike Stachowicz.
Mike is the president of COD's new chapter of the International Graphic Arts Education Association, which focuses on communication between the graphic arts industry and graphic arts education. Copresco's plant was chosen for the chapter's first field trip.
"When we went on the tour, we got to see where the products are bound and finished as well as the prepress equipment, where designs are proofed before going to final print. Our group likes these outside-of-the-classroom, hands-on experiences," Mike added.

tour.
"Plant tour experiences and contacts with printing professionals give college students the opportunity to explore possible careers in the graphic communications field," Steve says.
Since our
inception in 1987, Copresco has been a strong supporter of educational
endeavors.
A former member of COD's graphic
communications technology advisory committee, Steve currently serves on the
graphic communications advisory committee of the Technology Center of DuPage.
His active volunteer work includes chairmanships of
vocational and youth exchange service projects and service with The Rotary
Foundation's Group Study Exchange program.
