Following several acquisitions and continued growth, the label manufacturing companies known as Western Shield, All-American Label and Packaging, Lotus Labels, DAC Labels, Label Print Technologies (LPT) and The Label Smith will now operate under one brand: Imprimus Labels & Packaging.
This brand overhaul is part of a series of strategic advancements made during the nine years since Nizar Elias became the company’s CEO. This includes opening five additional manufacturing sites, upgrading and overhauling equipment across all six locations, and incorporating labels for digital printing, folding cartons and booklets into the company’s product portfolio, resulting in 10 times revenue growth.
With production facilities in Brea, CA; Dublin, CA; Mogadore, OH; Dallas, TX; Houston, TX; and Memphis, TN, Imprimus specializes in the consumer packaged goods industry, including top performers in the food and beverage markets. Its capabilities extend to wine, snack foods, frozen foods, beer, and cannabis. With flexographic and digital presses, Imprimus produces pressure sensitive labels, shrink sleeves, flexible packaging, folding cartons, expanded content labels, and instant redeemable coupons.
The new name emphasizes the company’s commitment to quality products and quality experiences – a name selected because it relates to both “imprint” and “imprimatur,” meaning “a person’s acceptance or guarantee that something is of a good standard.”
Plus, Felix Schoeller has announced that Kevin Clunie has been appointed to the newly created position of vice president of sales – Release. Clunie is an industry veteran who brings with him a strong track record of both business development and leadership of sales teams.
According to Felix Schoeller, Clunie, who boasts more than a decade of pressure sensitive adhesive experience with both Mactac and Avery Dennison, is ideally suited for the new role with the Felix Schoeller team.
"Strengthening the Release sales team in North America is part of the Felix Schoeller Group’s strategic plan for this key market segment," notes Michael Szidat, CEO, Americas. "The company has ambitious growth plans for this business, with a strong focus on high performance release liners, especially custom siliconized products."
