By acquiring ProPrint, the highest-audited circulation title servicing the Australasian print and graphics art industry, Haymarket Media Group has strengthened its global print and packaging portfolio. This purchase makes them the world’s pre-eminent print and packaging publisher and brings almost unlimited resources to ProPrint and gives its readers all sorts of new content. In addition to this title, Haymarket also owns PrintWeek, Printing World, Druck and Medien, and Packaging News among many others.

The print edition of ProPrint, published monthly, will be redesigned and its website overhauled with a local online editor able to draw on rich content from their international print portfolio. The first issue will be in June and will incorporate the PrintWeek brand values. Haymarket plans to coordinate their efforts both editorially and commercially, thereby extending their international footprint. The people who run ProPrint are excited by the acquisition as they would be going to a good home with a solid heritage in serving the print industry.
