Matti Technology, a Swiss firm, is transforming the world of book printing with its ground-breaking CHROMOEDGE printer. Traditionally, book edges have been an afterthought, but this innovative technology turns them into a vibrant canvas for creative expression and commercial opportunity. Unlike the more labour-intensive traditional printing —which could only process around 400 books per hour—CHROMOEDGE automates the process, printing high-quality, colourful designs on all three edges of a book at an astonishing rate of 4,000 books per hour.

This revolutionary approach not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of physical books in an increasingly digital age but also offers a powerful tool for differentiation in a crowded market. By integrating high-viscosity inks and seamlessly fitting into existing production lines, CHROMOEDGE significantly cuts operational costs while opening new revenue streams for publishers. From special editions and luxury publications to personalised print runs and creative branding opportunities, the technology is set to redefine book production and presentation. The book, it seems, has found an exciting new edge!
