Buhrs and Friedheim International sign distributor agreement

<p>Buhrs and Friedheim International are pleased to announce that they have signed a distributor agreement for all sales, service and spare parts for Buhrs Poly and Paper Wrapping Systems for the UK and Ireland. The new agreement is effective immediately and Friedheim has taken on key staff from the UK who have a great loyalty and dedication to the Buhrs product range.</p> <p>The move is another strategic step for Friedheim International as it enables the company to expand its already extensive portfolio of finishing and packaging equipment solutions. Mark Bristow, Managing Director, says: "Although Friedheim has a presence in almost all areas of conventional post-press, digital and packaging activities, Buhrs is a key player in high speed wrapping applications and is a well-known and respected brand, and with the type of high quality products that we are now taking on, this is a very exciting move for Friedheim at the start of a new year.”</p> <p>For Buhrs this is an important step forward after the closure of Buhrs UK. Ruud Oud, Sales and Marketing Manager for Buhrs, says: “We are happy to be able to serve our customers again. In Friedheim International we see an ideal home in a professional organisation for the quality products that Buhrs stands for and we are convinced that we will see a successful future together.”</p> <p><em>Background information:<br /> Buhrs Poly and Paper Wrapping Systems are renowned for their high quality, reliability and high performance, along with easy operation, service and maintenance.
