QLM Label Makers goes digital

QLM Label Makers has announced the acquisition of Melbourne based company Self Adhesive Markings.

Since its establishment in 1970, Self Adhesive Markings (SAM), based in Melbourne, has been a leader in the use of high end digital print technology for labels with a focus on quality and customer service.  In making this acquisition, Simon Pugh, CEO of the QLM Group noted the synergies in core values, customer target markets and an expanded manufacturing footprint for the QLM Group in the Victorian label and packaging market.

The addition of 2 HP Indigo Printing Presses compliments the extensive range of Flexographic equipment currently used by QLM Label Makers in Australia. Pugh also complimented Rob Baines, founder of SAM as visionary early adoptor of digital print technology in this space, a technology that will add to the company’s already existing digital capabilities in Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and Malaysia.

The QLM Group has operations in Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Perth, Kuala Lumpur, Ho Chi Minh City and Dhaka with offices in Sydney and Singapore running 51 manufacturing platforms in the self adhesive and packaging market.
