David Meacham director sales & marketing, Asia Pacific for Alcan Composite signed the agreement with Ben Eaton general manager of Starleaton in Shanghai last week in the presence of Campbell Hughes Australasian Sales Manager for Alcan.

Hughes says, “There were several key reasons that contributed significantly towards the appointment of Starleaton as one of only two national distributors for Alcan Composites in the sign and display industry.

He adds, “Starleaton’s successful track record in managing premium brands, market focus and deep inventory commitment will both strengthen Alcan Composites’ position in the manufacture of high-performance substrates, and reinforce Starleaton’s position as a national supplier to the sign, display and design industry.”

According to Starleaton’s Ben Eaton, Alcan’s High Performance Substrates will cement SDS as the one-stop shop for businesses looking for fully-supported premium brands in the sign, display and architectural design industry. Alcan Composites include Fome-Cor, Sintra, Gatorfoam, ForeX and Kapa.

Eaton says, “Flatbed UV digital printers are proliferating all over the country and we aim to service them with readily-available printable sheets at all price-points from the low-cost Foam-Core to the durable Forex and Kapa product lines.

He concludes, “Screen printers, fabricators, modelers, designers and framers will also appreciate our pricing and supply chain efficiency.”
