Press release from the issuing company

WOODRIDGE, ILLINOIS, USA - Tensor International LLC, a U.S. manufacturer of single-width web offset press equipment, is pleased to announce its latest press sale to Turkish book and magazine producer, Ada Matbaacilik Co. Ltd.

Two footprint shaftless T-400BE towers and an H-50 folder will be delivered and installed at Ada Matbaacilik during the start of 2nd quarter, 2013.  The new press is well equipped with a shaftless drive system and DRCS closed loop register controls, web guiding, infeeds and remote inking system.  Ada Matbaacilik plans to print school books on the new stand-alone press.  This is the second Tensor pressline to be installed at the Ankara, Turkey print location. The Tensor products are successfully represented by Pasifik Trading in the Turkish market.

"We needed to increase our schoolbook production capacity and determined another Tensor press would fit our requirements nicely," said Abbas Carhoglu, owner of Ada Matbaacilik.  "We've been impressed with the Tensor press' quality, durability and ease of maintenance.  The ability we have to perform quick changeovers between jobs, combined with receiving excellent technical support from Tensor and Pasifik Trading, helped us with our decision," said Carhoglu.

High quality print and efficiency were also key factors considered. "The high level of automation will reduce start-up waste and ink consumption while maintaining excellent quality during a complete production run," said Mike Pavone, Tensor's COO and VP of Sales.  "The T-400BE towers are designed for quality print results with pre-loaded bearing-mounted eccentrics, bearers on the blanket and plate cylinders, and helical drive gears for smoother gear movement."

Pavone remarked, "Ada Matbaacilik's trust in Tensor is invaluable to us and we are proud to be selected to work with this exceptional group of people as they continue to grow their business."

"We have worked hard to provide strong product and customer care to Ada Matbaacilik, and we're pleased to be recognized and approved by this leading printer," said Safak Okaygun, Chairman, Pasifik Trading.
