Transition processes are already in place and will be completed by 1 January 2018
Supporting Mark Andy’s long-lasting commitment to label and packaging customers, the company has been appointed the exclusive distributor of DuPont Cyrel flexographic platemaking systems in the United States.
The two companies first entered into business together in early 2014, serving as a distributor for plate material, processing equipment, imagers and software. A notable benefit of this new exclusive relationship is the ability to better serve flexography customers by developing plate systems to improve print quality and minimise downtime for optimising converters’ operations.
Kevin Wilken, CEO, Mark Andy, said, ‘We are excited to strengthen our relationship with DuPont, enhancing our goal of providing high quality, reliable supply of products. It’s a best-fit for our customers.’
Transition processes are already in place for existing customers and will be completed by 1 January 2018. ‘Customer support is the number one priority for all brands involved in the transition. Our goal is to streamline the process for all parties, and ultimately get customers the supplies they need when they need them. Zero interruption,’ stated Mr Wilken.
Fast and easy ordering is made possible with a dedicated team of experts and online ordering. Timely deliveries are possible through the strong distribution and supply chain within North America with coast-to-coast distribution centres specialising in same day delivery. As the largest distributor of flexographic consumables, it is the supplier of choice for pressroom consumables designed to produce excellent print results.
This expansion offers an opportunity to better serve existing customers, as well as develop longstanding relationships with new ones.
Chan Hansen, Americas channel manager, DuPont, concluded, ‘Both companies identified this as an opportunity to solidify our shared mission to deliver continuous innovation to printers and converters, specifically for the tag and label segment.’
