Day International, a global manufacturer and distributor of highly
engineered consumable products used in offset, flexographic and
digital printing, has announced the completion of its acquisition of
Duco International.
Duco International, headquartered in the UK, is a printing blanket
manufacturer with facilities in Slough and Swindon, England. The
company's global distribution covers five continents with its most
significant presence in Europe, Asia Pacific and India.
Dennis Wolters, president and CEO of Day International said, "We
are pleased to add the Duco product line, its technologies,
manufacturing capabilities and associates to Day's extensive
resources. The combination of Day and Duco will enhance Day's ability
to continue to provide customers with more choices and greater value."
In addition to the Duco brand of offset printing blankets, Duco
also distributes and services Cow and Dunlop brands of printing
blankets. Duco's complete product range offers choices for virtually
every printing application: sheetfed, web, newsprint and specialty
printing.
Wolters added, "Day continues to be committed to creating more
customer value; and part of that commitment involves providing more
services, more support and more product choices. The acquisition of
Duco, with its product portfolio and services, supports this goal."
