In an initiative created in Germany by Perfecta Schneidmaschinenwerk GmbH, IFS and KBA (UK) have joined together to distribute the Perfecta guillotine range to the UK.
The agreement takes the form of a working partnership with Perfecta’s existing sales channels, which in the United Kingdom and Ireland is Intelligent Finishing Systems (IFS).
Joint managing director for IFS, Bryan Godwyn, said, ‘This is an excellent opportunity to further extend the reach of the Perfecta offering to the larger formats, packaging printers and specialist areas where KBA is the press of choice, as well as increasing our presence in the general commercial sector. Perfecta is a leader in the introduction of intelligent control systems for high speed cutting efficiency and a world record holder for the largest guillotine, so we see this as a perfect fit.’
KBA UK managing director, Andrew Pang, added, ‘Perfecta is a leading guillotine brand with a unique pedigree and IFS has a really professional and experienced support team. For us this is another opportunity to introduce first class production solutions to our customers in a convenient and cost-efficient manner. As with our other recently-announced partnerships, such as with Optimus and Montex-print, our customers will benefit from KBA’s experience with similar installations across Europe in specifying and implementing the best solutions for their needs.’
