nilpeter.com People-to-People By Peter Eriksen Executive Assistant

Since its humble beginnings in 1919, Nilpeter has always been a family-owned company. By 'family-owned', I don’t mean somebody’s surname. To us, 'family' means people working together toward a common goal. And in order to succeed, teamwork and strong partnerships are essential. It is those strengths that will ensure continued success, both for us and our partners.

What does a partnership with Nilpeter give you?
Choosing your equipment supplier today is more important than ever before. Is it going to be around to support you tomorrow, or when you really need the support and back-up? Are you getting the latest technologies? That could mean servo, sleeves, or something else entirely. But whatever it is, it must deliver the cuttingedge your business is looking for. At Nilpeter,we see ourselves as a global player operating at the cutting edge of the printing industry, and leading the development of new technology.

Here are just a few of our 'firsts':
• The first to develop UV-flexo (1988)
• Inventors of true platform technology (MO-3300 in 1994)
• The first to bring UV-offset to the market (over 1.800 printing units in operation)
• Inventors of solvent-based gravure (now over 50 installations)

So, why should you choose Nilpeter?
Today more than ever, a close relationship with your preferred suppliers is essential if you are to meet your goals. We should not forget that our most innovative work at Nilpeter is often driven by our customers and partners. We continue to work with a large network of label printers, from glue suppliers to ink producers to material suppliers, all constantly improving printing techniques. Last but not least, we believe in 'People-to-People' business. Business is business; but the most successful are those built on strong relationships. The global market is developing more rapidly than ever. This constant upheaval makes it even more challenging to ensure Nilpeter as an industry leader. But it also makes it more exciting! As the world is getting smarter, we like to think 'so are we'. We are experiencing rapid globalisation, and the need for local presence is getting stronger. Not only for Nilpeter, but also for those of our partners who are active in markets far from their country of origin. We understand that business opening hours and the need to run at full capacity around the clock requires an extra effort from our side as a press supplier. That is why all our representatives around the world are offering excellent after-sales support.

Staying true to ourselves
The key to our future success lies in continuity and the ability to live up to our motto of 20 years '…your printing partner'.Over the years, we have sought to honour, and where possible, reinforce this motto. It is based on our values of continuous innovation and dedication to customer service and support. This is the true foundation of our company. As trends within the narrow web business vary radically around the globe, press suppliers must be able to respond quickly and efficiently. Some markets are more technology-led than others, while some are more price-driven. We are striving to be able to meet the needs of all our customers, no matter where they are in the world. It is a challenge we will not miss.

We invite you to be a part of Nilpeter to get InSight, and to enjoy the benefits of a long-term partnership with us.
