Martin Automatic records sales at Labelexpo Europe

Martin Automatic has reported that its exhibition at the recent Labelexpo Europe in Brussels was a resounding success. ‘This was a very strong show for us,’ said marketing manager Craig Thomson. ‘Our many visitors included press manufacturers, material manufacturers, package printers and label converters. We recorded several equipment orders at the show and expect our ongoing conversations to result in additional sales.’

One of the orders consummated at the show is for a new MBNT butt splicer for Norway-based converter Skipnes. The new splicer will go on an existing press in their Sweden facility. Brian Sager, regional manager for Scandinavia, credited the involvement of Martin’s Scandinavian representative: ‘Joakim Marcusson was instrumental in working with Skipnes, reviewing specifications and helping determine the best splicer for their needs.’

 ‘We exhibit at Brussels not only because of our strong presence in Europe but also because of the attendees from other regions – like Asia, Africa and the Middle East,’ said Thomson. ‘We also come to support our many relationships with the major press manufacturers who look to Martin splicers and rewinds to complement the performance of their presses.’
