About Us
Walch Printing is a leader in digital printing and short runs of perfect-bound, softcover books. We've been in the business for 80 years. Our customers are large and small, from across the U.S. - print brokers, publishers, university presses, individuals, and many others. We ourselves are a division of an established publisher, and so we understand acutely the issues involved in producing books on-time and within budget.
But being a leader in the print-on-demand industry is only part of what makes us special. The other part is the human factor. The attention to detail. The constant focus on the quality of your job.
That's what keeps people coming back to Walch. Of course they like that digital printing gives them reliable consistency from press run to press run. And they like the convenience of fast turnaround and small print runs. But mostly they just like who we are. How we treat them.
Our Equipment
Walch Printing's full-color digital press provides 175-line screen, matching the quality of offset printing at substantially less cost.
