Mark Andy Named Exclusive U.S. Distributor of DuPont Cyrel Products
Supporting Mark Andy’s long-lasting commitment to label and packaging customers, Mark Andy, Inc. has been appointed the exclusive distributor of DuPont Cyrel flexographic platemaking systems in the United States.
Mark Andy has been named the exclusive United States distributor of DuPont Cyrel Products.
Mark Andy Print Products, the supplies and consumables division of Mark Andy, first entered into business with DuPont in early 2014, serving as a distributor for the Cyrel product line including plate material, processing equipment, imagers and software. A notable benefit of this new exclusive relationship is the ability to better serve flexography customers by developing plate systems to improve print quality and minimize downtime for optimizing converters’ operations.
“Mark Andy is a pioneer in flexographic equipment committed to providing end-to-end solutions to our customers. We are excited to strengthen our relationship with DuPont, enhancing our goal of providing high quality, reliable supply of products. It’s a best-fit for our customers,” shares Kevin Wilken, CEO, Mark Andy.
Adding to the excitement, Mark Andy will also assume distribution of the full suite of flexographic pressroom supplies previously sold with the DuPont Cyrel product line, including plate mounting tapes, plate imaging equipment, letterpress plates, and other supplies, perfectly complementing the existing Mark Andy consumables portfolio of over 12,000 product SKUs that support flexographic, digital hybrid and offset workflows.
Transition processes are already in place for existing customers and will be completed by January 1, 2018. “Customer support is the number one priority for all brands involved in the transition. Our goal is to streamline the process for all parties, and ultimately get customers the supplies they need when they need them. Zero interruption,” stated Wilken.
As with all Mark Andy Print Product orders, fast and easy ordering is made possible with a dedicated team of experts and online ordering on shop.markandy.com. Timely deliveries are possible through Mark Andy’s strong distribution and supply chain within North America with coast-to-coast distribution centers specializing in same day delivery. As the largest distributor of flexographic consumables, Mark Andy Print Products is the supplier of choice for pressroom consumables designed to produce excellent print results.
Reaffirming Mark Andy’s strategy as a total solutions partner, this expansion offers an opportunity to better serve existing customers, as well as develop longstanding relationships with new ones. “We are committed to providing our customers with superior product and technical expertise. Our experienced team of consumables specialists will continue to deliver support and training needed to improve quality and productivity for our partners,” shares Wilken.
When speaking to the new agreement, Chan Hansen, Americas channel manager, DuPont, concludes, “Both companies identified this as an opportunity to solidify our shared mission to deliver continuous innovation to printers and converters, specifically for the tag and label segment.”
