The Guild of Gutenberg Knights is a confraternity that was born in France in 1996 as an organization to promote and develop the printing industry. It is now present in six European countries, including France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Switzerland and Poland.

Souto’s addition as a member of the Polish Guild of Gutenberg Knights was made in recognition of Sistrade’s globalization strategy, and its provision of engineering and consultation services around the world to the printing industry.

The ceremony took place on May 21 in Poznań, hosted by Guild chancellor Jacek Kuśmierczyk.

Sistrade has recently exhibited at events across south-east Europe as it looks to grow its presence in the region, including PrintCom in Plovdiv, Bulgaria and Intergrafika 2013 in Zagreb, Croatia. It has also recently opened an office in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
