Index V4 Embossers
The future of Braille

Never before has a Braille printer played in the same league as products from companies such as Mercedes or Apple Inc. Braille Box is the first Braille embosser to ever receive a number of the world’s most acclaimed design awards. Until now it has convinced five different design juries of its excellence. Braille Box is an embosser to be proud of.
Index Braille’s shift to V4 embossers has made a great impact on sales and orders. Our new embosser line has boosted the technique of future Braille output. With more efficient manufacturing, our lean production line is ready for new record orders. Since the release of V4, Index has shipped the largest order of Braille printers ever within the industry. Index has overcome the production and annual sale of 3500 embossers including a significant order to the Brazilian school system. 
Do you have any issues with your embosser? No problem. Index has the solution. We have service centers in numerous regions worldwide. You may also log on to the Index website and access endless information from our 24/7 internet support. Likewise you may order spare parts around the clock from our handy web shop.
Cut sheet paper; I strongly believe that this is our future. As the ink printer market has left tractor feeding behind, so will the Braille embosser market in the coming years. Our embossers have been managing this new technique flawlessly. Cut sheet paper is inexpensive, easier to use and requires less work. Best yet available at any local office supply store. 
Our journey with the most experienced and user friendly Braille techniques is serious. You are welcome to join us.
