Altech establishes English subsidiary

Labels and Labeling thumbnail

The Italian company Altech srl has established a new English subsidiary Altech UK Labelling Technologies Ltd, whose mission is to satisfy the demands of material labeling and identification systems for the sophisticated British market.


Altech UK will distribute its parent company’s range of systems combined, when requested, with accessories and devices for product management and handling during the packaging processes.


‘In addition to the labeling systems manufactured by Altech,’ said Rory Horton-Smith, director of Altech UK, ‘we will also deal with complementary products, such as printers (TEC and SATO), ribbons and labels. We want to create a complete service, which satisfies the varied and complex labeling demands from the companies in the food, chemical, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical sectors, who are our natural customers.’


When asked about the new subsidiary’s role, Piero Salvini, president of Altech srl, confirmed his intention to maintain working relations with existing distributors, ‘to whom the company will supply an even more punctual and accurate service’, according to a statement. ‘Altech UK will have the delicate task of enlarging and cultivating the British market,’ he said, ‘supplying existing distributors with an even better service, and providing the market with the fruits of 16 years of research and experience on the international market.’
