Mark Andy named exclusive US 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. Mark Andy now assumes 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, complementing its Mark Andy consumables portfolio of over 12,000 product SKUs for flexographic, digital hybrid and offset workflows.

Mark Andy said the move supports its commitment to label and packaging customers, as Kevin Wilken, Mark Andy CEO, explained.

‘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.’

Transition processes are already in place for existing customers and will be completed by January 1, 2018. 

Wilken concluded: ‘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.’

Chan Hansen, Americas channel manager at DuPont, said: ‘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.’
