Sun Chemical names Litho Supplies as Solaris distributor

Solaris is a range of inks and coatings formulated for the needs of narrow web printers and applications.

The appointment of Litho Supplies is part of a move by Sun Chemical to progress its position in the marketplace, and it said Litho Supplies is a ‘knowledgeable and capable distributor for servicing its narrow web range of products across the UK’.

It also builds on the current relationship with Litho Supplies, which started when it was named as UK distributor for Sun Chemical's Streamline range of aftermarket solvent based inkjet inks for wide and superwide format digital printers in 2013.

Richard Kemp, UK business director at Sun Chemical, said: ‘Litho Supplies has a unique product portfolio, an established customer base and an excellent distribution network. We were looking for a business that aligned with our narrow web growth strategy and Litho Supplies was the obvious choice.’

Eddie Williams, Litho Supplies managing director, added: ‘Over the past two years, Litho Supplies has built a great working relationship with Sun Chemical. Our customers have been impressed by the quality and benefits of the products and the Solaris Narrow Web inks will complement our current product portfolio.’
