TW Graphics and Kiian USA have agreed to strengthen their partnership and merge all digital operations as of May 1, 2014. The acquisition of TW Graphics’ digital business is part of Kiian’s continued global growth strategy. Its aim is to concentrate on optimizing activities to strengthen support for customers, whilst improving product delivery, product development and overall service. With a clear focus on continuity, the TW Graphics team will become part of the joint sales, logistics and customer service for Kiian Digital’s distribution in America.
Kiian President Dennis Wilby explains, “This development marks a very important step in the continued growth of Kiian's global business. Our successful relationship with TW Graphics has already proved to be a close partnership, but now Kiian gains the value of synchronizing our business with a supplier with a strong track record and excellent reputation. For Kiian, already with a global reach in over 90 countries worldwide, this development underlines our commitment to improving our local support and increasing our competitive position."
Earlier this year, Kiian made considerable investments in its operational structure and the set-up of a new production facility for digital ink manufacturing in Europe. Simultaneously, Kiian has invested in a production facility in the USA, new offices in Asia and the recruitment of talented and experienced team members to further extend its expertise and increase value to its customer base.
Kiian USA has officially opened in September 2013 in Hamilton County, Tennessee. Alessandro Ratti, who has experience and success in developing Kiian’s digital textile ink range, leads the regional office of Kiian Digital. Kiian USA produces and delivers its products throughout the Americas.
