International Company ABC Imaging Strikes Deal to Purchase Philadelphia-based Imaging Company
Washington, D.C.—When the economy took a dive, many businesses felt the crunch. Some businesses, unable to recover after months of tight spending from consumers and business owners and executives alike, were forced to close their doors.
ABC Imaging—an international document services and reprographic company—seized the opportunity to expand upon the market of large format printing acquiring the Pennsylvania-based Burton Imaging rather than let it become another victim of the economy’s downward turn. The deal with Burton Imaging’s owners to purchase the assets and accounts, not only saved jobs that would have been lost, but provided the assets needed to offer products and services to ABC Imaging’s existing and expanding client base.
Burton Imaging, now ABC Imaging, is located in Bensalem, Pennsylvania (near Philadelphia) and adds to the growing chain of locations across the U.S., Europe, China, and the U.A.E. The facility resides in a 60,000-square foot building and has the capacity to produce massive flexible media for the outdoor advertising industry, interior decor graphics and signs for regional/national multi-store chains, transit authorities’ promotional and directional needs and can warehouse and ship custom products as needed.
The facility’s departments are maintained by top industry professionals that understand the client’s needs and produce products of the highest quality to supply the demands in an efficient manner. Going green is part of ABC Imaging’s strategy. General Manager, Wayne Schur says, “Printing with the HP FB6700 flatbed water based ink technology not only is environmentally safe but provides years of outdoor life. It is another way we can be responsible towards our environment.”
ABC Imaging houses seven outdoor/indoor large format and grand format color printers that range from sixty inches to sixteen feet across relying on the quality Hewlett Packard brings to the table. Schur says, “The HP Scitex Vision Turbojet 8300 printer’s speed is phenomenal. It prints with speeds of over 4300 square feet per hour. With two in operation, we keep up with the demands of our large accounts with no problem.”
Wayne goes on to say, “With additional printers such as three HP Scitex16 foot XL1500s, one HP FB6700 Flatbed printer, and an HP 9000 Designjet printer, we can easily provide speedy production providing the capacity to handle any print and sign job handed to us.”
ABC Imaging plans to expand the operations of this facility and has added reprographic/blueprint services, printing store display/advertising and décor products for regional/national accounts. ABC Imaging is one of the largest providers of comprehensive print and reprographic services in the world today with annual sales exceeding $80 million from its combined stores.
Once in a while, there really is good that can come from a bad situation and this is one of those times. Jobs were saved and the future looks bright for ABC Imaging’s newest acquisition.
