The DI supplier’s team will be integrated within Mark Andy’s service infrastructure

 

Label and flexible packaging specialist, Mark Andy, has acquired Presstek, global supplier of direct imaging (DI) offset plates and presses, CTP solutions and services for commercial and in-plant customers. 

The DI supplier’s team will be integrated within Mark Andy’s service infrastructure, making it the largest regionally-staffed service organisation in North America, supporting brands such as Presstek, ABDick, Ryobi, Heidelberg, Xerox, KBA, Epson and more.

Both companies have maintained a strong partnership over the years. Integrating the sales and service teams is expected to yield many benefits for Presstek’s existing customers.

Kevin Wilken, CEO, Mark Andy, commented, ‘We expect Presstek’s customers to benefit from Mark Andy’s stable leadership, tremendous customer service and unmatched product offerings, including MAPP offset print supplies and consumables and Mark Andy digital print equipment.’

Presstek’s Zahara waterless plates division, which is not being acquired by Mark Andy, will be spun into a new company, Verico Technology, headed by former Presstek CEO Yuval Dubois.
