More consolidation in the book manufacturing space as digital printing specialist Integrated Book Technology, Inc. has acquired the web offset printer Hamilton Printing Company. John R. Paeglow III, IBT president, said that by combining the two companies “we will be able to offer customers manufacturing for the life cycle of a title, resulting in streamlined inventory management.” The company, which will operate under the IBT/Hamilton name, will be able to print runs from 1 to 10,000 copies.
IBT/Hamilton will have over 160 employees with revenues approaching $30 million. The corporate headquarters and manufacturing facilities will remain in their current locations in the Albany/Troy area for the time being.
