Hampson brings a wealth of experience as a veteran in the printing industry. He has previously served in several national sales roles supporting various print markets.

‘I have always admired Durst as a company and am honored to represent Durst throughout Canada,’ stated Hampson. ‘The Durst portfolio offers clients the ability to grow their business with industry-leading inkjet and software solutions. It is exciting to be in a position to offer a best-in-class portfolio of products across multiple segments including large format, textile, corrugated and label markets.’

Tim Saur, CEO and managing director at Durst North America, added: ‘Canada is an incredibly strong country and one in which, living in Western NY, I know to be very welcoming. The reality is that our presence in Canada has not yet achieved what we anticipated. 

‘At the same time, our market share in the USA continues to increase rapidly, and our customer success stories are growing and unrivaled. I believe that with the new addition of Phil Hampson, a seasoned, focused, knowledgeable, and proven sales individual, combined with a growing service team, we can properly reflect to the Canadian market just how sincere we are about partnering in their continued success.’

‘Philip’s experience in inkjet sales and support makes him a strong and welcome addition to the Durst sales team,’ commented Larry D’Amico, sales director for Durst North America. ‘He reflects our ongoing commitment to customer satisfaction before, during and after the sale.’
