Sun Chemical has appointed Litho Supplies as a national distributor for its Solaris Narrow Web product portfolio as it looks to progress its position in the marketplace.

The company recognised Litho Supplies as a knowledgeable and capable distributor for servicing its narrow web range of products across the UK. Solaris offers a complete range of inks and coatings formulated for the needs of narrow web printers and applications.

Richard Kemp, UK business director at Sun Chemical, commented, ‘Litho Supplies has a unique product portfolio, an established customer base and an excellent distribution network. We were looking for a business that aligned with our narrow web growth strategy and Litho Supplies was the obvious choice.’

The move builds on the current relationship with Litho Supplies which started when they were named UK distributor for Sun Chemical’s Streamline range of aftermarket solvent based inkjet inks for wide and superwide format digital printers in 2013.

Eddie Williams, Litho Supplies managing director, said, ‘Over the past 2 years, Litho Supplies has built a great working relationship with Sun Chemical. Our customers have been impressed by the quality and benefits of the products and the Solaris Narrow Web inks will complement our current product portfolio.’
