FiberMark, a fully integrated manufacturer and global distributor crafting its fiber based specialty materials in the U.S. and the U.K., announces that ConVerd has agreed to a merger with FiberMark North America, Inc.
Converd is recognized around the world for being the leader in providing sustainable paper based print media solutions to the wide and grand format print markets. Converd’s philosophy is to create and market products that exhibit superior print performance and fitness-for-use with an eco-friendly conscience.
ConVerd will become a part of FiberMark’s wide and grand format ink jet business in which FiberMark’s wide format print product line will adopt the conVerd brand name. Paul Paulette, the current owner and President of ConVerd, will join FiberMark as Vice President and General Manager of the new conVerd/FiberMark business unit.
“This is a very exciting acquisition for FiberMark and it is a perfect fit with our existing wide format ink jet business” said Chris McInerney, FiberMark’s Senior Vice President of Sales.
