Apex International, a global provider of anilox, glue set, and print solution technology, has acquired a property next door to its headquarters in Hapert, Netherlands to enhance production capacity and better serve the increasing market demand.
Apex International’s acquisition adds 2,500 square meters of additional space to its existing production facilities. This expansion is anticipated to boost its production output, allowing the company to meet the surging demand for our advanced anilox and embossing technology.
The new building houses expanded areas for office functions, increased research and development spaces, and added manufacturing capacity for rotory screens, rotogravure cylinders, anilox rolls, and glue sets. The company said the expansion is its strategic response to better cater to its customer needs as the global market demand for our industry-leading solutions continues to rise.
Marian Waterschoot, managing director, Embossing, at Apex International, said, “This expansion means we can bring even more tailored and efficient solutions to our customers. With more room for advanced screening and embossing technology, we can meet specific customer needs faster and more effectively than ever before. This is a thrilling period for our customers and us, and we can’t wait to explore what we can achieve together with specialty products in new markets.”
“This expansion comes at a crucial time as we continue to experience remarkable growth in the global market,” says Ruud van Cuijk, CEO of Apex International. “The additional space enhances our production capabilities and provides room for innovative research and development efforts. Our aim isn’t just to expand our physical reach, but to broaden our impact, effectively driving the necessary innovations within our industry. As we continue our growth trajectory, our steadfast commitment to quality and innovation remains unchanged. Our customers can rest assured that while we broaden our horizons, our focus on providing industry-leading solutions stays as sharp as ever.”
The official acquisition took place on June 30, 2023. Renovations and improvements to the newly acquired building have already commenced to align with Apex International’s high standards. The company says it is working to complete these enhancements by the end of 2023.
