Press release submitted on behalf of INX International.
INX International Ink Co., Schaumburg, Illinois, announced it has successfully completed the acquisition of Servicom New Zealand Limited. INX has also entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Galaxy Inks & Coatings Australia Pty Ltd. That transaction is expected to close by the end of this month, subject to customary closing conditions.
Servicom New Zealand, established in 2004 and led by founder Stephen Southon, has built a strong reputation as an innovative provider and the sole distributor of INX products in New Zealand. The company supplies high-performance inks for sheetfed offset, UV, heatset and two-piece and three-piece metal decorating, along with a comprehensive range of aqueous, UV and metal decorating coatings.
Galaxy Inks & Coatings Australia, founded in 1994 by Paul Hidajat and based in Sydney, is the exclusive distributor of INX products in Australia. Galaxy provides premium packaging inks, advanced inkjet solutions for digital printing and a full suite of inks and coatings services, including color matching, supply chain management systems and technical troubleshooting.
“These acquisitions represent a significant milestone in our strategy to enhance INX’s market presence and capabilities in Australia and New Zealand,” said Blair Welch, INX Managing Director for Australia and New Zealand. Welch, a 33-year veteran of the printing industry who joined INX last July, added, “With Servicom now fully integrated and Galaxy soon to follow, INX is positioned to streamline operations, enhance customer support and accelerate growth throughout the region.”
