Still on top. Everest is the world leader in cut sheet paper and flexible embossing. It embosses documents, braille books, labels and visiting cards with equal ease. With Everst you can use ink and braille in the same document.
Braille everywhere
Before Everest, no braille embosser worked in the developing world. Where continous braille paper was hard to find, there was little communication. Everest closed the information gap. It uses the kind of paper that can be bought at your closest store. For those who require the most flexible embossing, Everest is the answer.
The history of Everest
Index Braille introduced the first Everest-embosser in 1990. It was the first standing printer in the world, and was soon rewarded a national design prize. With Everest we were the first to offer reasonably prized doublesided embossing. Everst was also the first embosser with sheet feeder, speech feedback and control panel in braille.
The more advanced Everst, V2, came in 1996.
In 2003 Everest V3 was introduced, packed with high performing technology and new software solutions, USB, network support. Still, after 15 years on the market, no other embosser competes with the groundbreaking Everest.

The history of the Everest sheet feeder
Before Everest there were no sheet feeder for braille embossing on cut sheet paper. When our customers showed us the demand we started considering the possibilities. One solution was using an ink printer sheet feeder. We contacted a leading sheet feeder-producer, and were asked “How many k:s do you want?” We weren't asking for thousands at the time, but less than a hundred. With a little enthusiasm and some good will we were allowed to buy the small volume.
Today we own the producing right for those sheet feeders. We have refined them for braille perfection. Index Braille is the only company in the world to offer sheet feeders for braille embossing on cut sheet paper.
