Edale has appointed PT Samafitro as its distributor for Indonesia, extending the flexographic press manufacturer's reach in Southeast Asia through a partner offering sales, installation and service support.

PT Samafitro, a Jakarta-based industrial printing and finishing provider, will distribute Edale's LabelLine and CartonLine platforms to label and carton converters across Indonesia. The company already carries Canon technologies and brings deep experience in digital and packaging printing.

'We're thrilled to partner with Samafitro,' commented Ryan Barrett, head of sales APAC for Edale. 'Their strong presence and local service capabilities make them ideal distributors for Edale in Indonesia. Together, we'll be able to serve converters more effectively, bringing the technical support, flexibility and innovation Edale is known for directly to the Indonesian market.'

Tjhin Bui Phin, president director at PT Samafitro, added: 'We are excited to represent Edale's LabelLine and CartonLine presses in Indonesia. Their flexographic technology complements our commitment to delivering advanced, end-to-end printing systems. We look forward to helping converters across the region benefit from single-pass capability, robust support and become the preferred option for their production line.'

The distribution agreement follows Edale's recent showcase at Labelexpo Europe 2025, where it demonstrated its CartonLine FL6p press with live production of integrated carton applications.
