Roser Printing in Hallwang near Salzburg has developed into one of the most environmentally friendly printing companies in recent years – far beyond the borders of Austria. When Peter Buchegger took over as managing director in 2013, he had a clear objective: to continue the company's success and implement necessary changes for a successful future. "Our aim is to be the quality leader in a clearly defined customer segment, to whom we offer our services as the greenest and most sustainable printing company," Peter Buchegger succinctly summarizes his strategy.

For Peter Buchegger, a key to the company's successful development was the expansion of an additional production hall, which was purchased back in 2009: "This hall was a real stroke of luck, giving us the opportunity in 2014 to expand our capacities and simultaneously invest in new technologies and processes." Today, offset printing and parts of the bookbinding department are located in the extensively renovated hall. With the move, a humidification system was also installed in the hall to ensure consistently optimal production conditions for the printing presses. "Absolute quality and adherence to deadlines are crucial criteria for our customers. Sometimes it comes down to half an hour. We can prevent quality fluctuations caused by registration errors or production interruptions due to static electricity by maintaining consistently optimal humidity," explains Buchegger. Roser Druck has been using a high-pressure humidification system from Condair Systems since 2014. Criteria for selecting the system included ultra-fine, droplet-free water mist and a comprehensive hygiene and service concept. "We didn't need a comparative quote back then. The quality offered and the expert advice convinced us from the start and haven't disappointed us since," recalls Buchegger. In 2017, the humidification system was extended to include prepress and digital printing in the older building.

Peter Buchegger has no doubt that the humidification system, first commissioned in 2014, still meets the high demands for energy efficiency and sustainability: "I would choose this high-pressure technology and the associated service concept from Condair System again because the system perfectly aligns with our green approach." Compared to compressed air-operated nozzles or steam humidifiers, high-pressure humidification consumes up to 90 percent less energy. The water, specially treated for hygienic and safe operation, is produced in the system's own reverse osmosis unit with a yield of over 80 percent to minimize the amount of wastewater the company produces. The high-pressure pump and reverse osmosis system are housed in portable containers that are exchanged for servicing every six months and continuously reused via a closed-loop system. Regular updates and technical checks ensure that the systems maintain optimal performance even after many years of operation, without requiring new investments or additional resource consumption. Based on their positive experiences, the Roser printing company plans to expand the humidification system to other areas in the future: In addition to the entire bookbinding department, humidification could also be extended to the office spaces to create an even healthier and more invigorating indoor climate for employees. For Peter Buchegger, one goal takes precedence over all others: "If the employees are doing well, the company is doing well."
