After a series of in-depth strategic discussions, the partnership between the Netherlands-based company PolyMX bv and the German company CITO-System GmbH has now been sealed. Both companies have been liaising for several years and as a result of CITO’s heightened focus on materials used for cutting die manufacture and its international distribution network, the common goals on both sides have become increasingly evident – which makes this new partnership a logical move. Over the past few years, PolyMX has grown to become a quality leader in ejection material for both rotary and flatbed die-cutting.
This collaboration will open up new opportunities for further optimisation of the processes involved within packaging production. Both companies will remain independent.
Jürgen Mariën, CEO of the CITO Group, said, “We have so many ideas on ways to optimise the die-cutting process – and ejection material is a key factor here. I am delighted that we have been successful in forming a partnership with PolyMX because it gives us the opportunity to put our joint ideas into practice by working together with a manufacturer.”
Cees van Golverdingen, Managing Director of PolyMX added, “Thanks to CITO’s worldwide sales network, PolyMX is able to focus again on the production of high quality polyurethane products. In the future we will concentrate on improvements to our existing products, innovations that provide added value to the die-cutting industry and other synergy effects resulting from this cooperation.”
