Flint Group invests $2 million in new Atlanta inks facility

The Flint Group is investing $2 million in a new manufacturing facility in Atlanta, Georgia. The company will move into the new facility in early April, serving packaging and commercial printers.

Susan Kuchta, vice president, general manager of the packaging inks division, said: ‘Flint Group has been in Atlanta for over thirty years. We are committed to the customers and employees in this area, and we owe our success to them. The new facility underscores our plan to continue working here and investing in this city for a long time to come.’

At 52,500 square feet, the site will accommodate solvent, water and paste manufacturing. The Lean Manufacturing design ensures an efficient workflow and maximized quality control. The site includes space to eventually expand the company's testing capabilities with a printing press for on-site product development. A large customer service laboratory will let Flint Group quickly verify raw materials and finished products, in addition to providing color matches and development work. In summary, the facility is a one-stop-shop for ordering, developing, testing, making, storing and shipping high quality printing inks.
