Matik president Steve Leibin commented: ‘For over 40 years, Matik has been distributing and installing cutting edge technologies from Europe. Matik technologies deliver innovative capabilities and extensive production efficiencies that enable label printers to differentiate themselves in the market, effectively allowing them to, as we say, “Move your business forward!”.’

However, just as important, we believe our personalized support services – including prompt parts delivery and 24/7 technical support – have been valuable to our customers. Our factory-trained technicians deliver preventive maintenance and integrated solutions, offering quality inspection, diagnosis, repair and aftercare.’
