These photos were taken at the Knights of Columbus printing plant. The facility employs 23 people and produces 6 million pieces of mail each year. A few things stood out during my visit, first of which was how much the employees I spoke with enjoyed their jobs and working there. Another thing was how cool some of the machines are including the ability to print, fold, cut, bind etc… It takes a lot of ingenuity to create machines that can do those functions. Below are some of the photos I’ve taken during my visit.
