Press Controls Producer Opens UK Sales Office

Q I Press Controls has opened a new UK sales and service office that the company said will serve the Anglo-Saxon markets.

The office is Q I Press Controls' ninth sales and service centre in the world.

Q I Press Controls board members, Menno Jansen and Erik van Holten, commented: "Driven by the growth developments in the Anglo-Saxon market, which is one of the largest unilingual communication markets in the world, we had been looking for adequate reinforcement in this enormous area.

We estimate that this market, excluding Australasia, amounts to 2,500 web-offset presses." They continued: "Our structure, which consists of several of our own branches and dealers, had to be reinforced in other comparable markets.

Our growing portfolio for innovative press control also required expansion of our sales network.

The web offset market is still growing autonomously and we are keeping up with this growth." The company explained that the demand for efficiency-improving equipment in printing companies is greater than ever.

The use of colour continues to increase and quality requirements are becoming stricter.

Jansen and Holten said: "We are glad that Simon Bermingham was able to join our company as the managing director of our new branch in the UK on the day it opened.

Simon will be working on the markets in the UK and their periphery.

He will also be supporting the expanding northern American markets from this location." They added that Simon Bermingham gained some of this experience in operational positions but mainly through his service and sales responsibilities for manufacturers of web-offset presses and auxiliary equipment.

And the two directors explained: "As Q I Press Controls used to be in Simon's portfolio, the web-offset press control equipment automation market holds few secrets for him.".
