hubergroup and GFI Innovations Expand Dealer Agreement

The hubergroup USA Inc. and GFI Innovations, after an existing 10-year business relationship, have entered into a dealer agreement aimed at hubergroup’s offset- and flexographic-ink customers in the U.S. and Canada.

hubergroup provides a range of products, including ink-mixing systems, for commercial, news and package printing applications. The company has a global sales network of over 150 offices and 40 regionally operated ink-manufacturing companies.

“Our relationship with GFI Innovations extends more than 10 years. Recently we have been very successful in the packaging inks market in the USA and Canada,” said Martin Weber, Group Managing Director for hubergroup USA Inc. “Especially in this market segment, we see strong potential for our cooperative efforts with GFI by offering printers integrated solutions for in-house colour mixing. Our business has also been more active on the flexo ink side and the market is growing.”

hubergroup uses GFI’s AccuBlend-HV for offset litho inks and the new AccuBlend-LV for flexo applications. Both systems provide hardware and software designed to improve control over the ink mixing process, schedules and workflow.
