Alan Naylor, sheetfed general manager at Toyo Ink says, “Toyo Ink will also continue to distribute its range of consumables directly and our agreement with JL Lennard marks a further expansion of the Toyo Ink brand in Australia, where we will enhance our local production and product development capabilities and market presence while extending our service through the considerable reach of JL Lennard.”

Naylor continues, “In addition to their own extensive service network, JL Lennard Graphics has already integrated into its Toyo team the expertise of Toyo Ink trained personnel who will be active supporting the brands.

“They will spearhead an expansion of the Toyo brand through our partnership with JL Lennard, giving customers the benefit of all the advantages they have enjoyed over the years as well as the additional benefit of major new local assets to deliver responsive and reliable service.”

Also commenting, David Boekemann, managing director of JL Lennard says the Toyo brand would be given outstanding service and technical support by the established in-house graphics expertise of a specialist team led by Tony Colella, general manager of JL Lennard Graphics.

Boekemann says, “We’ll be out in the field alongside customers to demonstrate enthusiasm, excellence and competence, particularly in sheetfed products.

“By combining the power of two established market leaders, this arrangement offers twin benefits: Toyo can focus further on expanding the Australian technical and innovative capacities that have been a major advantage for more than 20 years, while JL Lennard can extend and enhance the quality of service for which Toyo have been known for decades.”
