Looking Forward to 2019
As we have in the past around this time of year, we take a moment to reflect on the days that we’re leaving behind us and to begin anticipating the future. Our Pamarco family knows that 2018 has been a year of many challenges met by remarkable accomplishments, so it is with great optimism that we look forward to what 2019 will bring.
Focusing our goals on steady growth, we have once again invested our capital dollars on key pieces of equipment to match industry growth. A new laser was installed in Batavia in July and a second new machine was installed in Warrington in October. Atlanta received two very vital new pieces of equipment: a new grinder and a new lathe to be able to maintain the close tolerance demands of both the aftermarket and our OEM customers.
The market we work hard to service is continuing to consolidate, bringing many changes to the industry. Examples of this are WestRock’s addition of Kapstone; TC Groups acquisition of Coveris, a long time Pamarco customer; as well as Berry Global’s acquisition of Clopay, two of our best emboss customers for many years. The impact of these acquisitions provides these groups with increased buying power and more leverage in our marketplace, with increased demands in both product quality and delivery times.
When it comes to our partnerships in 2018, we added Trelleborg to our growing line of products. Trelleborg manufactures a range of sleeves for flexo printing that is complementary to the Inometa line of carbon fiber bridges and adapters. This, coupled with the GAMA International pH and viscosity control equipment, gives us the most superior group of products in the industry and adds to our sales efforts for the Flexible Packaging Industry.
We would like to thank each member of the Pamarco team for your hard work this year, and your families for their support along the way.
