2015: The Year of the New Record Presses!

New record presses are the big news today. First: GZ Media yesterday announced that brand new presses will go online at the Czech-based company's pressing facility (the photo is not of a new press! We've not yet received photos).

"Now it´s going to change," says Michal Sterba, CEO of GZ Media. "In the last two years we have seen 30-40% annual growth of demand for vinyl records. This year we have sold 100% of our production capacities. The development of this new press will allow us nearly double our production capacity in 2015." With 14 million records produced in 2014 GZ Media is the largest manufacturer of vinyl records in the world.

In other new press news an anonymous source tells analogplanet.com that Pallas has new presses coming on line as well.

"Ten new lines" analogplanet was told. The prototype has been up and running successfully for 6 months.

Happy New Year!
