CS Graphics is now the exclusive distributor of GEW’s range of UV LED curing systems for printing, coating and converting applications in the Australia and New Zealand markets.
This development continues the long-standing relationship GEW previously had with Aldus Graphics, of which the newly formed CS Graphics recently completed a management buyout of, and has now taken full ownership of its core distributor operations.
“We are proud to have partnered with Aldus Graphics for over two decades now, and together we have enjoyed great success in the ANZ market,” said Marcus Greenbrook, director of international sales at GEW.
“We have built a strong relationship based on mutual trust and our common belief in excellent customer service. This is an exciting development for both of our companies, and we look forward to continuing to build our business together.”
GEW is a manufacturer of UV systems for label and narrow web printing and is experiencing a growing global presence in sheetfed and web offset for commercial printing and packaging, as well as the wood coating market.
GEW’s UV systems are available for all new machinery, and can be retrofitted to any active press, according to the company, allowing “printers to breathe new life into older printing equipment”.
The newly-formed CS Graphics is led by co-directors and industry veterans Chris Bodger and Sheetal Mishra, who bring decades of combined experience in the narrow web printing and converting sector.
CS Graphics will focus on delivering enhanced service and solutions to printing businesses throughout the region.
Both Aldus and CS Graphics are aligned in ensuring a seamless transition, with all existing customer relationships, contracts, and services continuing uninterrupted.
GEW is a family-owned business employing over 150 people worldwide. It has three UK manufacturing sites and two satellite offices, including GEW in Cleveland, Ohio. The company's sales, service and distribution network serves over 60 countries globally.
