Compact Foilers announce agreement with Carton Craft Supply

‘We are really pleased to confirm that we are now working with Carton Craft as they have a great reputation and geographical coverage in the USA,’ said Tim Self, Compact Foilers director. ‘Carton Craft already supplies and supports over 1,000 printed packaging customers nationwide with die cutting supplies, process improvement equipment for die cutters, and die making equipment. Based on these relationships, they will really strengthen our market presence as we continue to grow the business in North America.’

Carton Craft represent other European suppliers such as Serviform, Lasercomb, Boxplan and Cito. They also have three technicians on staff and will be set up in the near future to provide spare parts and support locally to the ever increasing Compact Foiler customer base.

‘We are really excited about the Compact Foiler products,’ said Mark Doxtader, president of Carton Craft. ‘This product fits in to our current portfolio and skill set perfectly. We can build on the great reputation of Compact Foilers and the installation base they already have in the USA, which includes leading printing groups such as Diamond Packaging, Keystone Paper & Box and Vista Color. Adding this product to our portfolio also allows us to extend our product reach into the printing department.’

Carton Craft have engaged the services of Edward Riga, who introduced Compact Foilers to them, to work with their team promoting and supporting the foiling modules that work on all printing presses to include Heidelberg, KBA, Manroland, Mitsubishi, Ryobi and Komori.

'I see some great opportunities for printers that want to enhance their work with spectacular effects to stand out from the crowd,' Riga said. 'Most of my previous customers will be excited to see these developments that offer a complimentary alternative to traditional embellishment systems.'

Carton Craft personnel have completed training and will be supported throughout by James Self, Compact Foilers sales manager and Bill Strake area sales manager.
