RIECKERMANN EXPANDS MACHINERY PORTFOLIO THROUGH NEW PARTNERSHIP

Rieckermann is pleased to announce a new partnership with Koenig & Bauer Flexotecnica, the second-largest printing press manufacturer in the world with the broadest product range in the industry. The partnership will see Rieckermann representing the manufacturer in Southeast Asian markets: Thailand, Indonesia, and the Philippines.

The cooperation agreement, signed at this year’s Chinaplas trade fair in Guangzhou, China, complements the strategy of Koenig & Bauer Flexotecnica to expand its sales network in Southeast Asia in response to the ever-increasing demand for flexible packaging in Asia. Flexible packaging is the fastest growing sector of the consumer and industrial packaging market.

“Koenig & Bauer Flexotecnica offers precisely what more and more Asian customers are demanding – high quality, a broad product portfolio and environment-friendly technologies,” says Kristian Rieck, Rieckermann’s Director of Plastic & Converting.

“Through the cooperation with Rieckermann, we now have an experienced partner at our side on the Asian market,” says Dr. Peter Lechner, managing director of Koenig & Bauer Flexotecnica. “I am certain that the very good local network will help us to be even more successful in Southeast Asia.”
