“Their strength in textiles and reputation in wide-format are a good fit for Durst as we look to expand our reach in the market,” says Larry D’Amico, the North American director of sales for the industrial inkjet printer manufacturer. “This partnership will allow us to double the size of our sales team and create incremental business.”

D’Amico adds that his company also shares Global Imaging’s “customer first” philosophy.

Our customers will know that when they work with Global Imaging, they will invest in only the best products on the market.”
