More post press consolidation in Sweden

Recently Grafkom.info revealed a major deal in the Swedish post press and book binder business when SDK acquired Aros Bokbinderi. Just weeks after, three other companies in the same type of business have changed owner.

• Klippans Bokbinderi (owned by Ljungbergs Tryckeri) in the southern part of Sweden has acquired the specialized post press company RST.
• Two book binders in the city of Falköping have both filed for bankruptcy in the last couple of weeks – Falköpings Bokbinderi and JKJ Bokbinderi have combined a yearly turn over of 16 million SEK according to latest annual reports.
