So you can sell your ideas.

POINT OF SALE

We are experts for the point of sale.

We do not think in terms of printing techniques.
We think in terms of wows.
The moment of truth emerges at the point of sale. Here, the consumers decide whether all
their efforts and investments in the communication, the product and the equipment have
been successful. We support our customers with all what brands, products and actions
makes radient - and arouse desires to buy. No matter whether by the printing technology,
lighting technology or a combination of both, ranging from shop-branding, changing communication
surfaces to all traditional POS tools.
Since we have a complete command of all printing technologies, we can provide uncompromisingly
good implementation ideas from our bag. We can organise the delivery and
installation so that your ideas look good, not only on paper.

There is a good reason why so many brands
have been cooperating with us for such a
long time: the common success.
As is known, chocolate makes you happy. And we do our utmost to make our customer
Lindt happy. Quite frequently, we have such an opportunity, not only on the traditional
holidays such as Easter, Christmas, Valentine‘s Day and Mother‘s Day. Even if costly new
introductions of products are at issue, our know-how is in demand.
Together with the responsible persons from the Lindt company, our KL experts can
implement special decorations at the point of sale, which attract much attention not only
by people with a sweet tooth. It is the production of oversized replicas which requires
much sensitivity and long-standing experience in production. We are only satisfied when
the chocolate lovers‘ mouths start to water - and our customer’s business is booming.

We love making an entrance.
So your ideas become the talk of the town.

OUTDOOR
ADVERTISING
14

We set standards in outdoor advertising.
15

We probably know each other by sight.
Around the world.
You can use outdoor advertising to attract the highest attention from a broad target group.
Your messages will be perceived and deeply imprinted in their memories - consciously
and unconsciously. Your advertising on posters, billboards and pillars cannot be ignored
and will receive the highest acceptance by the consumers as compared with all other
advertising media. Outdoor advertising makes you present.
No matter whether a Blow-Up, Mega-Light, City-Light, Column or Giant Posters are
concerned, KL Druck can produce all print runs from a single item to a large volume, using
screen, offset and digital printing processes. We should like to support you in the planning
of media and the implementation throughout Germany or Europe.
In addition, our specialists are experts in transport advertising. They know all the
dimensions and special features of the most different vehicles (buses & trains, passenger
cars & trucks as well as aircraft). Accordingly, the design can be matched to a millimetre
and produced according to the highest quality standards. In order to avoid any faults, we
of course assume the professional pasting on site. And since this connection should last
as long as possible, we only use the best inks and offer a warranty of up to five years.

We have a complete solution for everything.
No matter whether it is suspended, runs or flies.
We can be a little bit proud of the fact that FAW, i.e. the Fachverband Aussenwerbung
e.V. launches a nationwide out-of-home generic campaign and entrusts KL Druck with the
production of the appropriate posters for the first time in its 50-year history. We put the
motifs „Outdoor advertising hits. Everyone. „on paper in such brilliant quality that they did
not miss their purpose.
Our colour-intensive slogans quickly become real eye-catchers in the streets and squares,
in undergrounds, suburban and long-distance train stations, in airports and malls as well
as retail chains. Obviously, everything was well done: The campaign achieved top values
in public advertising effect and was a complete success - to which we could contribute
by our work.

Whoever wants to impress visitors and
competitors, can buy the proper ticket from us.
The 24 Hours of Le Mans is the ultimate motorsport event. Here, skill and teamwork are
in demand - as in our company.
As a core-service provider for special events, we belong to the Audi team for many years
and make sure that everything is ready to go in advance, but also on site. Therefore, we
install a printing unit and a roll plotter directly at the racing course in order to be able to
react to current requirements as quickly as possible. This is simply our job whenever we
take over the management of a project, including the „usual” things: Several thousand
square metres of banners, textiles, self-adhesive foils, slide prints and illuminated lettering
are shown in a good light by our team at the entire racing course, on the roads to it, on
the stands and in numerous special structures.
Of course, everything in record time.

People. Technology.
Passion.
Inspiration
Using KL Digital, you decide on
a team consisting of passionate
professionals who know the
requirements of the digital signage
business from a successful
cooperation with global brands.
This is the reason why we can
provide individual support since
large projects are an artwork of
design, technology, architecture,
craftsmanship and sometimes of
everyday things such as approvals,
statics and fire protection.
Enthusiasm
We will accept and coordinate all this
even if we have to involve special
service providers from our partner
network. Until the turnkey handover.
At the same time, we are still
committed to valuable analogue
virtues such as adherence to
deadlines and costs, agreed service
levels, 24/7 emergency support
and an availability guarantee for the
equipment.
Information
You will obtain all of this at a
convincing price-efficiency ratio, both
for small and large projects.

We are full of drive.
So you can fully concentrate

We know how many contacts you need to
be able to equip 4,000 affiliates within 10
days in 46 countries: one.
Offering you an unparalleled service - this has been the mission of KL Druck for four
generations now. How do we manage that? By making every effort to continually improve
our service in all areas.
The experts of the KL project management can coordinate the entire production: ranging
from the data management by three printing processes and further development to
individual packaging and dispatch. In order to meet our customers’ requirements, we
have grown continuously and enlarged our office, storage and production spaces. In
addition, we have the worldwide largest offset printing machine with an UV offset option
for plastics, SK film, PP, PE as well as textile advertising media and are the leading beta
tester for XXL digital printing machines.
No matter whether the smallest price tag or an international poster campaign is concerned:
Using the most stringent internal quality assurance levels, KL Druck can provide a perfect
result for each of your printing projects.

We always redefine
the term ‘full service’.
A dignified welcome to the German Pope Benedict XVI: 45 by 64 meters, 2,880 square
meters on each side of the building, 2,470 kilograms of weight. A great action by itself.
The actual size of the project not only manifests itself in the processing of giant banners,
but also in the service behind. Whoever thinks that the Axel Springer building in Berlin,
which is classified as a historical monument, can simply be covered by an XXXL Pope
poster, is wrong. Statics, safety-related requirements, wind loads and fire protection
were only some areas for which our KL advertising technicians had to find solutions. In
addition to numerous visits to authorities, the development of special retaining clamps for
window chassis and a customized retaining structure on the roof are only two examples
implemented within the scope of the top-secret project organisation, planning and
implementation - without any help from above.

We are not only passionate printers. We are
advisors, logistics specialists and fitters as well.
43

We have technologies at our disposal before
they are in the market. Because we are the top
address whenever manufacturers of printing
machines wish to test their innovations.
The KL Druck team has been the top address for the latest developments of the leading
manufacturers of digital printing machines for more than a decade. This is a position for
which we have worked hard in the course of time and from which every print order from
our customers can profit.
Of course, we do rest not on our leading position: We continually optimize printing
technologies, ink systems, materials and workflows with respect to efficiency, quality,
costs and environmental compatibility, making sure that the latest technologies are always
used. After a multi-year development and a costly test programme, e.g. the beta test of
the latest and most productive machine from HP Scitex, the HP Scitex FB11000, could
be finished successfully. Our slogan is „nothing is impossible!“
