IBIS move to new larger Headquarters

We are pleased to announce that our long awaited company move is now complete.

The IBIS team is now settled into our new larger premises at:-

9, The Gateway Centre, High Wycombe,HP12 3SU, UK

This new facility gives us :

• new open-plan offices and meeting rooms, including a large area for our engineering design activity.
• A showroom / demonstration area where we retain permanently one or more stock Smart-binder systems for customer demonstrations, and to test all new product enhancements and customer-special designs prior to shipment.
• A product development area for developing and testing prototypes.
• A large conference room for product training courses and customer presentations.

IBIS Engineering (CAD product design)

The move to our new ‘Gateway’ Headquarters has enabled us to increase the size of our engineering team working on Smart-binder enhancements, customisation and new products. This engineering capability is core to our business, and allows us to offer bespoke solutions and exciting new products for the future.

Product demonstration & test area
Our new demonstration and test area is large enough to accommodate complete CF print lines with in-line finishing equipment. We have already used this showroom to test and demonstrate the Smart-binder in line with Oce VS9710 CF and VP6250 CS printers. (Videos of both running are available on our website: www.ibis-bindery.com/downloads.htm)

Smart-binder manufacture

Smart-binder manufacture continues at our factory in Colchester, UK where we are currently increasing production output to cope with higher market demands.

Our new Headquarters gives us the working environment to provide our customers with the products and services which they expect from us. I look forward to welcoming you to our new offices, if and when you find an opportunity to visit us in future.

yours sincerely
