This expansion will add 45,000 square feet to house the new press, along with added production space, a new shipping and receiving area, secure office space, and secured finish goods storage. The new press, which is slated to come online in early 2018, will be the newest in the industry, incorporating the latest advancements in flexography technology. The TRESU will complement IGT's current servo-controlled Gallus press, which also utilizes flexography technology.
"The
addition of this new, state-of-the-art TRESU press is, at its core, a
commitment to our customers, who have come to expect high-quality tickets,
innovative games, and a partnership grounded in our Customer-First
philosophy," said Michael Chambrello, IGT Chief Executive Officer, North
America Lottery.
"We are extremely proud of the growth we've experienced in our instant
ticket printing and services business over the past several years which has led
us to be able to invest in an expanded facility and new press. With the
expansion, we will be able to offer our customers the latest technological
advances, added flexibility in production scheduling and even more products and
solutions to help support sales growth," Chambrello added.
