DES steps into Supply One’s shoes

Taking on the mantle of MACtac Australia’s new coloured film distributor, DES has come to the rescue for wide-format printers after Supply One’s shock closure.

According to DES’ managing director, Ian Clare, the company has already taken delivery of a number of stock lines as it gears up for its new role.

“The MACtac range of products is a perfect complement to our suite of technologies for the wide-format and digital print sectors, and we’re looking forward to pursuing further growth in the Australian market together with MACtac.

“As part of our commitment to our new partners, we have undertaken to maintain the full selection of MACmark coloured vinyls, including the 9800 PRO Series, Premium Performance Polymeric Film and a comprehensive range of IMAGin digital print media and Permacolor laminates for the wide-format digital print market,” he says.

Over the coming weeks DES will be contacting MACtac customers to discuss ongoing supply requirements, as it works to maintain the supply line.

David Worth, BDM for MACtac Australia, says the unfortunate closure of Supply One provides the opportunity to take advantage of DES’ established nationwide network.

“We are sure that our customers will find DES a highly professional supplier of our products, and we look forward to helping their business achieve continued success by providing high quality and innovative graphics and decorative solutions for many years to come.

“MACtac would also like to sincerely thank our existing distributors, BJ Ball Papers Australia and Celmac, for their outstanding support during this challenging period. Our thanks also go to Q1 Media for their assistance,” says Worth.
