Pamarco to open Canadian anilox plant

Pamarco Global Graphics has announced that a new plant located in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada - a suburb of Toronto - will be fully operational in the manufacturing of laser engraved anilox rolls from next January.

Terry Ford, president of Pamarco Technologies stated: ‘Canada has always been an important market for Pamarco’s products and services and we are now making a long term commitment to this area. For our current and future Canadian customers this will greatly ease logistic issues of shipping product across the US border, will reduce reaction time of processing rolls and will greatly increase our overall service.’
This plant will be fully equipped with state-of-the-art plasma coating and laser engraving equipment capable of processing rolls up to 165” in length, and the latest Cellbase Inspection and verification equipment. The plant will be producing Pamarco’s full range of Laserflo and Thermaflo engravings currently being produced in Europe and the United States.
‘The expansion into Canada will serve as a model for future Pamarco ventures into other targeted international markets,’ says Terry Ford. ‘Coupled with the strength of our new sales agents in Canada, Edward Graphic Supplies Ltd, we feel very positive about this move.’
