Flint Group expands Canadian label and narrow web operations

Flint Group, an inks and coatings specialist for the printing and packaging sectors, has opened a new distribution facility in Montreal, Quebec, to expand its support for label and narrow web customers in Canada.

The facility will warehouse and distribute Flint Group’s water-based, UV curable, and UV LED dual-curing inks, as well as coatings for narrow web applications. Previously, customers in the Quebec region had relied on Flint Group’s Toronto facility for their ink supply requirements.

This expansion doubles the company’s distribution presence in Eastern Canada. The new location will provide faster delivery times and improved product access for regional customers.

Additionally, Flint Group’s regional commercial team has recently expanded with an experienced field technical service representative to provide dedicated support to customers in Quebec.

Nicki Kerrigan, vice president of sales and service for North America at Flint Group, said: ‘This expansion underscores Flint Group’s commitment to providing enhanced local service and support for customers in the Montreal and Quebec region. The new facility will ensure customers benefit from reduced delivery times and easier access to high quality inks and coatings – reinforcing our vision of bringing color to the world by positioning our products closer to the printers and converters who use them.

‘With the expanded support of our Montreal branch, we are well-poised to strengthen partnerships with both new and existing customers in this dynamic market, ensuring they can access the industry-leading products and support they deserve.’
