But Ken Coburn, a print broker with 45 years of experience in the industry in the United States and abroad, says that more is involved than wages. "What is generally not understood is that the lower cost of many products offshore is not directly tied to labor rates."
"[Not often considered] is the ratio of labor and materials to a job, and the fact that materials offshore are priced considerably less than here, even when they are the same materials. Presses in Hong Kong cost a lot less than the same model here, and paper which is 79 cents/pound here is 39 cents in Asia," Coburn explains.
