One of Australia’s most innovative print businesses, Whirlwind Print, and Kodak are expanding their relationship with a new direct plate supply agreement.
Kodak has had a strong relationship with Whirlwind Print over the years with workflow, CtP and plates in use at the high tech Knoxfield site. Under the new agreement, Kodak will continue to supply Whirlwind Print with Kodak Trillian SP thermal plates.
Steve Venn, Kodak managing director, Australia and New Zealand, said: “We are delighted to continue our relationship with Whirlwind Print. Their innovative and solutions-based commitment to print aligns well with the Kodak approach to business. Efficiency and reliability are key requirements in an extremely competitive market. Whirlwind’s use of Kodak’s solution helps them to achieve this, whilst making way for some exciting business opportunities in the future.”
Andrew Cester, Whirlwind Print managing director, said: “We needed a supplier who could offer solutions and products that help us drive our business forward, and Kodak was the perfect partner. Whirlwind prides itself on the quality and efficiencies of our print process and the Kodak plate combined with the benefits of 300lpi screening, or Kodak’s staccato screening, is a winning combination in our minds.
“The strong performance of Kodak plates, after sales service and their solutions approach has been an important factor in our decision. Kodak’s ability to deliver consistent quality for our customers, with ongoing service support and a total solutions approach is extremely important, as we look to continue to offer high quality and efficient products to our customers.
