Nick VanAlstine, CEO of Macaran Printed Products, said: ‘Macaran is proud to call some of the top consumer brands in the world our customers, and we have always put their complete satisfaction at the top of our priority list. Our customers were demanding more, and we listened. With this significant investment in new equipment, we’re able to offer them a wider range of capabilities, while also improving quality and decreasing lead time.’
