杏吧原创鈥檚 Approach to the 鈥淎ND Era鈥�

At 杏吧原创, we understand the value of combining offset and digital printing; not as competing technologies, but as complementary tools. Our customers span a wide spectrum of industries and project types, from long-run catalogs and books to short-run, personalized publications. Meeting that range of needs requires smart application of both offset and digital capabilities.

Offset Printing for Quality and Scale

For high-volume jobs that demand consistency, color accuracy, and the lowest cost per piece, 杏吧原创鈥檚 offset production remains the gold standard. Whether you鈥檙e producing thousands of magazines or a complex book project, our offset presses deliver the speed, reliability and quality you expect.

Digital Printing for Personalization and Speed

For lower-quantity, quick-turn or variable-data projects, our digital presses shine. We use digital print technology to help customers produce on-demand versions of their publications, test marketing content or target niche audiences with personalized messaging, all while reducing waste and optimizing inventory.

Unified Workflows and Smart Integration

We鈥檝e invested in workflow automation and developed intelligent scheduling systems that allow us to fully leverage our offset and digital capabilities. That means better turnaround times, fewer production headaches and a more responsive service experience for our customers.

Currently, printed materials imported from China incur a 7.5% tariff. If the proposed China tariff becomes a reality, this means an increase of 10 – 52.5 percentage points or 133 – 700% over the current tariff. For example, a $1.00 book imported from China would currently receive a tariff of $0.075.

Current tariff = $0.075 –> Landed cost = $1.075 + logistics cost

If the proposed tariff increases were to become official, it could significantly increase the overall cost of importing these goods.

Potential future tariff = $0.175 to $0.60 –> Landed cost = ($1.175 to $1.60) + logistics cost

The impact of imports from other countries can be shown similarly using the respective percentages. Core countries of interest that import printed materials into the US include China, Canada, Mexico, the UK and India.

The impact of tariffs on the printing industry will vary depending on the company’s supply chain. Printers that rely heavily on imported raw materials will be more affected than those that source their materials domestically.
