Automated but with a personal touch

Catalog production

We are catalog designers

Strong ideas and high-volume implementation

We love catalogs. As a physical medium, the appeal of catalogs is their direct contact with customers, and even purely online versions are a source of inspiration. So we understand how important it is for large-scale catalog production to be efficient and meet deadlines. When it comes to fast, high-quality implementation, we are the right agency partner. Our intelligent media workflows enable us to handle automated pre-press creation or the individual layout of catalog pages: often in record time, and always cost-optimized.

We combine creative instinct and excellent implementation skills. Strong concepts, a high degree of automation and visual quality. We know how to make catalogs.

Outstanding creation, perfect automation

We make creative freedom possible. Our focus on structures and process reliability lays the foundation for streamlined, reliable catalog production and rapid revision loops. This creates space for outstanding design and creation.

As a reliable partner for the entire process chain, we assist with process analysis and optimization from partially and fully automated InDesign page creation to image data optimization and creative retouching.

We provide support for advertising material planning and management with our PIM system LaudertMediaPort^®, set up workflows for revision processes (e.g. based on Dalim or LaudertCheckPoint^®) and take care of translation management including the creation of language versions. Our comprehensive interface experience is also available for the perfect integration of all kinds of IT systems into the process.

Visual highlights are the purview of our creative agency LOFT: Powerful image concepts, immersive layouts, always based on the corporate design. More than 'just' catalogs. Catalogs that inspire and sell while reinforcing the company's image.
