KBA CEO Delivers Keynote at PPC Fall Conference

Bolza-Schünemann even struck a positive tone about the most recent economic conditions affecting the global printing industry. These situations, he said, make everyone emerge stronger than before. KBA has made the most of the challenging post-crisis years, moving up to second place as a printing press manufacturer. Early diversification and the resulting broadening of its product mix have enabled the company to spread its risks. Solid financing, with an above-average equity ratio of almost 40 percent, and the fact that KBA is not dependent on a dominant capital investor means that the firm is well placed to maintain and expand its market standing, he noted. “Whether you are a small 50 employee firm or large international firms with thousands of employees, these good business practices are applicable to any size firm,” he said.
