Inkmaker Group, manufacturer of automated dispensing systems for mainly ink, paint and packaging applications, has recently appointed Bart Wentges as the new Managing Director of its recently acquired dispensing company, SWESA Dosiersysteme GmbH (Eltville, Germany).
In addition to expanding Swesa to become Inkmaker Group’s premium dispensing brand, Wentges will continue to manage sales of Rexson Systems and Vale-Tech, as well as all of the Group’s brands, from the German-based office.
“On behalf of the board, we are pleased to appoint Bart Wentges as our choice of General Manager for Swesa. Bart has over twenty-five years of experience in the dispensing field; we are confident that, with his knowledge of the region and track record of past achievements, our Group will benefit substantially,” said Christophe Rizzo, CEO EMEA/Americas, Inkmaker Group, according to press release.
“In recent years, Inkmaker Group has been able to successfully grow its business in Germany” emphasized Rizzo.
“Now with Swesa, a specialist German company, whose customised automated dosing systems offer great potential for expansion into new sectors and, with Bart’s involvement, our Group will be looking to expand that market share within Germany, Benelux and Eastern European countries.
And with the support of Inkmaker Group’s network and resources, we will be able to offer our premium Made-in-Germany brand, Swesa, to customers all over the world”.
Swesa’s production facilities, located in Eltville, near Frankfurt am Main, will allow Inkmaker Group to produce, sell, distribute and service all its brands directly from Germany.
