Phoenix rises from the ashes

Following a devastating fire, Sterndruck in Fgen, Austria, is back in action. Just like the legendary bird, something new is emerging from the ashes in Zillertal. And the showpiece is a Roland 700 with a great deal of special equipment.

Jrg Hllwarth started up as a one-man business in the basement of his home in 1980 and over the last 26 years has developed it into a full-service provider with extensive know-how. Sterndruck has been located in the Zillertal industrial estate since 1997 and in early March this year a fire broke out in the basement of the company's building which seriously damaged the building and equipment. Large areas of the prepress, digital printing and finishing operations were completely destroyed, along with the major production resource - a Roland 700 installed in 1998.
