ALTKIN (formerly ARMOR Print Solutions) announced the expansion of its range of compatible consumables and spare parts for A3 and A4 multifunction devices.
This follows last autumn’s strategic acquisition of the THS Group, a recognised European expert in the manufacture of compatible print cartridges for A3 copiers. With the integration of the THS Group’s product ranges, ALTKIN has added 400 new references to its catalogue, mainly comprising compatible consumables for A3 and A4 printing systems, but also spare parts, bringing its product catalogue to a total of more than 3,000 references.
The range covers the best-known brands on the market, including Canon, Konica Minolta, Kyocera and Ricoh. It now also includes more specialist brands such as Utax, Triumph Adler and Olivetti.
“With products that are compatible with 95% of the manufacturer brands on the market, ALTKIN stands out as the sole supplier of such a wide range, establishing its position as a one-stop shop for all printing solutions,” said Céline Berson, Category Product Manager at ALTKIN.
THS is adding new compatible cartridges to ALTKIN’s range, as well as a range of spare parts such as drums, developers, ovens and used toner recovery systems.
“The collaboration between ALTKIN and THS is not just an addition of products, but a fusion of technical expertise and innovation,” said Gerwald van der Gijp, Managing Director of ALTKIN.
ALTKIN’s flagship range of alternative, reusable and quality-certified printing consumables for copiers under the OWA brand is complemented by these new compatible cartridges from THS. This complementary approach enables the company to meet the market’s immediate needs for alternative products in the A3 copier market only, while preparing for the future with a remanufactured offer in the following months, once enough used cartridges have been collected and remanufactured.
“This strategy underlines ALTKIN’s commitment to providing a fair solution in terms of value for money, while promoting an ecological and sustainable approach to office automation,” concluded Gerwald van der Gijp.
