Yesterday the Valley Profile team paid a visit to the NZME printing press in Ellerslie, to see how your paper gets made.
Each Monday evening, the stories and adverts we lovingly craft into your weekly dose of community news, are engraved on aluminium plates and fed into the gigantic six-storey beast of a machine, where they are transferred onto newsprint, folded, and trimmed before wending their way around the massive building to the loading dock.
Many thanks to Mike, Trevor and Sanjit for the comprehensive tour!
