Flint Group and Continental Printing Inks and Eagle Ink Systems will create a combined business, Flint Group Africa.
“Geographical expansion is a key pillar of our strategy and Africa is an important growth region for the packaging industry,” says Doug Aldred, president packaging and narrow web for Flint Group.
“The significance of Africa is evident by the recent entry of the large multinational converters; this aligns perfectly with Flint Group’s global value proposition.”
This new entity combines two of the leading ink and coatings suppliers to the packaging and print media markets in Sub-Saharan Africa – positioning Flint Group Africa as the largest ink supplier in this growing market.
