Kemtek Print Solutions signed an exclusive distributor agreement with Durst Phototechnik AG on February 22, 2012, to supply its wide range of Durst Rho Inkjet printing systems in South Africa, with immediate effect.

Marketed under the trade name Durst Rho, the Durst range of flat-bed UV inkjet printers includes the latest RHO 750 modular inkjet system, the RHO 1000 and 1000L continuous high-speed production machines as well as the RHO 900, 800HS and 800 Presto.

Since 1936, Durst Phototechnik AG has offered the most innovative system solutions for image reproduction worldwide and is considered a leading manufacturer of premium quality digital large format inkjet equipment and software, designed for a variety of materials and market segments.  

At its headquarters in Brixen, South Tyrol, Italy, Durst’s research and development professionals work for and with international users to create highly specialised individual solutions for future market needs. Its know-how in ink technology, inkjet printing with piezoelectrical printheads – developed since 1998 for a range of inkjet printers for various application fields in the manufacturing sector – and its scientific research conditions have earned Durst a reputation as a pioneer in inkjet printing solutions.

‘Digital print is the heart of Kemtek’, said Gavin van Rensburg, CE Kemtek Print Solutions. ‘Our company has been at the forefront of digital technology introductions to Southern Africa over the past two decades and when Durst indicated its intention to increase its footprint in the region, we immediately recognised the opportunity. ‘Kemtek’s five branches and 26 technicians, positioned throughout South Africa, make it the perfect partner for the further expansion of our sales activity into the Southern African region,’ said Gerhard Gamper, sales manager for Durst.

Heading up Kemtek sales for Durst RHO systems will be Nigel Tretheway, ably assisted by representatives in each of Kemtek’s five branches nationwide.
