Infinity Foils has been named the exclusive North American distributor for Nakai. The appointment is effective immediately, according to Naoyuki Shigeta, senior executive vice president of Nakai International Corp.

“Infinity Foils is pleased to be able to provide the Nakai foil products to the foil stamping and embossing customers throughout North America," said Jim Hutchinson, president of Infinity Foils Inc. "Nakai has built an excellent reputation for high-quality foil products and their products will fit perfectly within the Infinity Foils’ line of premier foils."

Infinity Foils will distribute the Nakai foil products under the Infinity Foils brand of products. Through Infinity Foils, Nakai foil grades and shade range will continue to be available to the North American customers that have come to rely upon them for their applications. The announcement comes off the heels of Nakai International’s early 2012 announcement that they were closing their North American facility. Nakai foil products will continue to be manufactured in Japan, to the same quality level and integrity.

“We believe that the customers who have long enjoyed the Nakai family of foil products will be extremely satisfied with the new distribution arrangement,” Hutchison added.  Infinity will now offer the foil stamping and embossing industry one of the largest ranges of foil shades and releases, while still holding true to Infinity’s core principals of in-stock products, available 24/7, without minimums.
