Tuesday 04. September 2012 - Flint Group Print Media Europe's operation in Sweden and Denmark has appointed Heidelberg as its exclusive distributor for industry leading brands: K+E sheetfed offset inks, Varn Press Room Chemicals and dayGraphica blankets.

The appointment of world leading sheetfed press manufacturer, Heidelberg, as an exclusive partner to Flint Group, the world’s only manufacturer of sheetfed offset inks, pressroom chemicals and sheetfed blankets, creates a very attractive proposition to customers of both companies in Sweden and Denmark.
The two companies are associated with high quality products, outstanding service and a commitment to press room excellence. This new partnership is therefore a fusion of similar business standards, which will improve the ease of access to these value propositions for both Heidelberg and Flint Group customers.
“We feel confident that our customers will benefit from this cooperation and recognise the advantages of having Heidelberg as the complete supplier of pressroom consumables from Flint Group,” states Flint Group’s Jonas Svensson, Commercial Director, Sheetfed Print, Nordic Region.
Jonas continues, “Combined with Heidelberg’s printing superiority and experience, Flint Group’s top quality pressroom materials form a strong package of consumables and services for the benefit of the Swedish and Danish printers.”
The Sheetfed offset business is an important element of Flint Group’s portfolio and this appointment reflects their increased customer focus, offering faster and more comprehensive service.
The main advantages of this new partnership to Swedish and Danish printers will be Heidelberg’s renowned dedication to customer press rooms; a superb and balanced portfolio of inks, pressroom chemicals and blankets from one trusted manufacturer; and a distribution network that is second to none.
“Both Heidelberg and Flint Group are recognised for premium quality, high service level and a true engagement with customers. We are convinced that our customers will see great benefits in having the world’s largest press producer supply Flint Group’s well recognised brands of K+E, Varn and Day,” says Heidelberg´s Hans-Henrik Hjorth, Consumables Sales Manager for Sweden and Denmark.
Representatives of both companies will visit customers to explain the roll out of this new partnership in the coming weeks
