Nipson America has signed a distributor agreement with Pitman Co of Totowa, New Jersey (USA) one of the largest suppliers to the commercial printing, labelling, and packaging industries.

The distribution partnership establishes Nipson as Pitman's digital printer manufacturer of choice for commercial printers, packaging companies and converters.

Joe Demharter, president of Pitman, said: "We see tremendous opportunity for our customer base to add digital capabilities to their existing flexo and narrow web offset presses and Nipson is the ideal technology to fulfill this need.

Nipson's unique integration capabilities allow our customers to add variable data printing in-line with their existing printing equipment at a very attractive price point.

This combination helps meet market demands for variable data while delivering a strong return on investment." Nipson and Pitman plan to target commercial printers, converters, and packaging operations under the terms of the agreement.

Labels, tags, books on demand, security documents, specialty pieces and any application that can benefit from an integrated or stand-alone digital printing are suitable for Nipson's cold-flash fusion technology, it believes.

Robert Stabler, president of Nipson America, commented: "Through this partnership we will be able to work with print professionals to maximise their current equipment along with our flexible digital printing technology to gain business in new markets.

This is a unique offering that can only be achieved with Nipson technology and we are pleased to be working with Pitman, a company that has a hard-earned, excellent reputation in the printing and packaging industry.".
