Extend transpromotional messaging, reduce cost and waste, improve efficiency and go “lean & green”

Increasing costs, postal changes and a focus on the bottom line are driving innovations that will deliver greater profitability, reduce waste and improve efficiency in the mailing operation. Change is coming, and the best strategy is to adopt technologies that carry you beyond today’s challenges and into the future of the mailing industry.

The BBH MAILStream Inveloper system transforms your mail processes by combining envelope manufacturing and mailpiece assembly into a single continuous workflow, and frees your operation from the limitations of traditional envelope manufacturing, including storage, handling, long lead times and package disposal.

The BBH MAILStream Inveloper leverages transpromotional capabilities and improvements in color digital printing to convert envelopes into truly cost-effective marketing vehicles: the customer experience starts with the envelope.

Features

• Increased operating speeds — up to 30,000 mailpieces per hour
• Lower cost per piece — through lower materials cost and increased throughput
• Flexibility — easily accommodates letters to flats, closed face and windowed material applications
• More efficient processing — significantly fewer stops results in higher system efficiency

• Environmentally conscious — eliminates envelope boxes and cartons
• Robust, reliable solution — engineered to provide a decade or more of worry-free production and increased profitability
