July, 2024 : Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems (Kongsberg PCS) is pleased to announce a new agreement with Convertec Graphic Technics AB (Convertec) to expand its distribution reach across the Nordic region.
This strategic partnership will enable Convertec – a premier distributor of large-format post-press cutting systems and precision gluers, label printing, and converting machinery – to sell and service the full range of Kongsberg digital finishing solutions and tools in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland.
"This new agreement is a part of our continuous process to deliver leading expertise and services to our customers," said David Preskett, Vice President of EMEA and APAC at Kongsberg PCS. "The team from Convertec joined us at our Customer Experience Center in Gent and were so impressed with the award-winning Kongsberg Ultimate and our automation solutions that they immediately wanted to add it to their offering. The combination of our leading technologies, such as the Ultimate, and the expertise of Convertec will be a key enabler for Kongsberg customers to change and grow their businesses."
Preskett continued, "The Nordic region is thriving, with many incredible businesses enjoying significant success across packaging, wide format, sign, and display manufacture. We are delighted to further expand our reach in the Nordic region with this partnership, as we continue to live up to our ethos of 'global presence, local service.'"
Founded in 1987 in Gothenburg, Sweden, Convertec Graphic Technics AB has over 35 years of experience in distributing and servicing machinery and equipment to the Nordic packaging industry.
"This collaboration marks a natural expansion of Convertec’s existing product portfolio," said Managing Director Carsten Vilain Jensen. "It positions Convertec as a highly specialized distributor and service partner of Kongsberg PCS for the graphic arts, signage, PoS/PoP, and packaging industry in the Nordic countries, which is precisely the geographical area and highly specialized field in which we have operated since our business began in 1988.
“The increasing success of Convertec has been the result of years of dedicated work and is a testament to our commitment to our customers in terms of service, support, and partnership,” he added. “We will now have the privilege to offer the absolute latest technology from the renowned Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems to both our existing and new customers.”
This new partnership ensures customers across the Nordic region can benefit from the game-changing Kongsberg Ultimate, the market-leading Kongsberg C-Series, and the versatile Kongsberg X-Series.
