Technology Above and Beyond Printing
Pacom is more than just a printing company. In 2007, Pacom established one of the largest wire-O bindery factories in South Korea. This allows us to handle such projects all in-house, allowing for the best quality control and capabilities.
The end result is a simple truth: Very few printing companies in the world can promote an equipment list as deep as ours.

POD or Print on Demand with digital technology is a process in which the project are printed using non traditional printing equipment to produce high quality physical copies that are in many ways comparable to the quality one would expect with traditional printing machines. The new equipment often does not require the typical costly setup often associated with traditional printing such as offset printing. Because of this, there is a fixed cost per copy, no matter how many copies are ordered. This allows an order to be as small as quantity one.
While the unit price is very likely higher than what one might expect in offset printing, the average cost is lower for small print runs (due to the setup costs of offset printing)
Beyond cost, POD has other benefits such as:
- Technical set-up is often quicker than for offset printing. Changes are quicker as well, therefore allowing for more flexibility.
- Produced items do not need to be kept in stock as is typical in an offset print run, therefore storage is reduced as is handling costs, and inventory costs.
- Print only what you need. No need to over print or hold onto unsold products.
