ECRM to acquire
Esko Graphics’ polyester CTP product line This includes the manufacture and sale of DPX 4, DPX System, DPX Lite, WorkMates, and all associated software products, consumables, spare parts, and related products. “Over the last four years ECRM has designed, developed, and introduced a complete line of violet CTP machines for both commercial printers and newspapers world-wide, and we recently announced that we have now shipped our 1,000th CTP unit,” said Rick Black, ECRM’s president and chief executive officer. “This acquisition of the Esko Production CTP product line allows us to better serve our customers with an even wider portfolio of products covering additional segments of the printing and publishing markets. We are impressed with the sales and service organization in place and we plan to continue working with the current Esko Production channel partners under the ECRM brand. Our vision for ECRM is to be the value leader in the industry by delivering high-quality, reliable equipment that not only meets our customers’ production requirements, but ensures an attractive return on investment. We believe this acquisition is another step forward in establishing our leadership role in the industry.” Esko Production is confident that this agreement secures a strong home for the future of the polyester technology, which has been developed during the last 10 years. “The fit between the ECRM CTP business and the Polyester CTP business from Esko Production is excellent,” said Torben Rysgaard, who will continue to be responsible for the polyester business, “and we look forward to serving our current customer base of many thousands of users even better.” About ECRM |
