FT Ropes In Roularta for EMEA Magazine Printing
Leading news organisation The Financial Times (FT) has chosen Roularta Printing, the Belgian-based printing company owned by Roularta Media Group (RMG), as partner for printing their magazines destined for distribution across Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).
FT’s decision to entrust the production of some of their award-winning publications, including The Art of Fashion, FT Business Education, FT Wealth, and How To Spend It (HTSI), to Roularta reflects a shared commitment to excellence and quality, respecting the highest sustainability standards. Roularta Printing’s state-of-the-art facilities helmed by an experienced team are also perfectly equipped to meet FT’s high standards.
FT’s Print Circulation Director Janet White says, “The choice of Roularta Printing as a strategic partner is based on various considerations, including a strong emphasis on sustainability, continuous investments in cutting-edge technologies, and the unparalleled quality standards maintained by Roularta Printing. Additionally, their long-term vision plays a crucial role in a rapidly consolidating market.”
Steven Renders, General Manager at Roularta Printing, adds, “We are honoured to be chosen by FT as their trusted partner for magazine printing in EMEA. This collaboration underscores our unwavering commitment to excellence and our relentless pursuit of delivering unparalleled quality in every project we undertake. Also, our continuous attention for sustainability played a key role in FT’s decision. For example, this year, we invested 4.5 million euros in the replacement of our ovens by energy-efficient alternatives. We look forward to a long and fruitful partnership.”
