Inkmaker Announces Acquisition of Swesa Dosıersysteme GmbH

Inkmaker srl announced that its acquisition of SWESA, a German company specializing in customized dosing systems, would be completed by the third quarter of 2020. The addition of SWESA Dosiersysteme GmbH to Inkmaker Group, an Italy-based global technology firm, represents another milestone in reaching its global objective of providing customers with complete process engineering solutions.

This acquisition marks Inkmaker's third purchase since 2019

Inkmaker srl continues to strengthen its global position through the acquisition of Rexson Systems Limited and Vale-Tech Limited in the United Kingdom, which took place in October last year, as well as the acquisition of Tecnopails S.n.c in Italy earlier this year. SWESA, which places great emphasis on environmental technology, realizes ecological and economic concepts through innovative dosing systems such as FLEXO and SMARTMaster. These machines, respected in the market for their robustness and durability, are known for requiring minimal maintenance. Additionally, SWESA's unique needle-free valves, which provide 100 percent ink circulation capability, have served a significant global customer base from the food packaging, office furniture, paper tissue, and heavy-duty corrugated packaging industries. Christophe Rizzo, CEO EMEA and AMERICAS at Inkmaker Group, stated: "Over the past few years, Inkmaker has successfully grown its operations in Germany. The growth achieved made the next step necessary, and the acquisition of SWESA materialized as the logical consequence of this requirement. SWESA's knowledge and technology represent an excellent fit for Inkmaker Group. We will continue production of SWESA units in Germany. On behalf of the board, we are pleased to welcome SWESA Dosiersysteme GmbH to our growing family of brands." Roland Steinberg, General Manager and owner of SWESA, added: "I am very satisfied with the outcome. Inkmaker is a world leader with global sales force and service infrastructure supported by Industry 4.0 technology. This is an important moment in strategic global terms. Through Inkmaker's leadership and by joining the Inkmaker family of brands, I am confident that SWESA's business continuity is assured and that we are committed to both strengthening and expanding its market position." As SWESA takes on a larger role within the Inkmaker group of companies, Roland Steinberg will continue to play an active role in sales.
