Flexo Concepts opens UK sales office and distribution center

Flexo Concepts has opened a sales office in the UK to expand its distribution channels in Europe. Paul Reeve, who previously represented the company’s MicroClean line of anilox cleaning equipment, will head up the office and promote the MicroClean and TruPoint doctor blade brands in the region. The company has also opened a local distribution center for its MicroClean media and ReNew cleaning products. Flexo Concepts presently supports a global network of representatives and resellers; the UK office is the company’s first overseas location. 

As European sales manager, Reeve will have direct responsibility for these product lines in Great Britain and Ireland and will work to expand the company’s presence in the sheetfed offset market throughout the continent.  

Dave Burgess, vice president of sales and marketing, said: ‘Paul has done a great job representing our products over the past six years. His track record, industry experience and understanding of the local business climate made him our first choice for the position. This expansion shows our commitment to supporting our sales channels and customers not only in the US, but worldwide.’     

Reeve has 12 years’ experience selling equipment and consumables to the flexographic printing industry. He spent eight years at JM Heaford, a supplier of flexographic and gravure pre-press equipment and manufacturer of proofing and mounting equipment. Before that, Reeve sold chambered doctor blade systems for four years. He will operate from a home-based office outside of Manchester, England.
