What Tipografia Direct Print Srl does

Tipografia Direct Print Srl, legally registered as GLOBAL PRINT BDV SRL, is a Romanian commercial printing company founded in 2005 and headquartered on Șoseaua Progresului in Bucharest, with a secondary production facility in Ploiești. The company positions itself as a premium integrated print provider spanning creative design, large-format UV and latex digital printing, offset-grade color-managed output, packaging, POSM (point-of-sale materials) and promotional merchandise, holding FOGRA, PANTONE, FSC, ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 18001 certifications. Its installed base includes the first Heidelberg high-end digital printer in Romania, HP Latex inkjet lines, Durst UV equipment and ESKO i-Cut workflow software, giving it combined monthly indoor capacity of roughly 65,000 m² (30,000 m² UV + 35,000 m² latex) with a planned expansion to ~250,000 m²/month outdoor once a Durst P5 350 is commissioned.

The customer base is B2B and includes large multinational and Romanian enterprises such as BCR, Deloitte, McDonald's, Mercedes-Benz, Nike, Kaufland, Dedeman, Engie, Telekom and AVON, spanning retail, banking, automotive, energy, telecom and consumer-goods end markets. Revenue mechanics combine per-square-meter pricing for prints (€2.93–€8.40/m²) and per-unit pricing for roll-ups (€27.90+), with no minimum order quantity, supported by both direct enterprise sales and an online configurator channel.

Growth has been funded by a combination of internal cash flow and approximately €3.5 million in cumulative EU structural-fund grants across three projects (2016, 2020, 2023), tied to a €7M multi-year capex program (€2M in 2019 and €5M in 2023) and to a stated turnover-growth target of +60.9%. The company has used this funding to build out the Ploiești site, certify FOGRA color management, install the Heidelberg digital press and plan the Durst outdoor upgrade, while committing to at least 10 net new jobs under its EU project obligations.
