Brother Industries has completed the acquisition of Domino Printing Sciences plc, having met all the conditions of the offer announced on March 11, 2015.
Domino has established a global reputation for the development and manufacture of high-quality coding, marking and printing equipment, as well as the supply of aftermarket products and customer services. Brother cited the strength of Domino’s customer base across its coding and marking business, and its desire to develop the scope and coverage of the digital printing sector as key reasons for the acquisition.
The Domino brand and management structure will remain unaltered, with Domino Printing Sciences operating as an autonomous division within Brother Industries.
“Brother respects and values Domino’s brand equity, technologies and strategic vision for the business and the markets it serves,” said Nigel Bond, CEO of Domino Printing Sciences. “As such, the companies will be working closely together on natural growth opportunities, as well as explore collaborative possibilities to develop new products. Domino will be able to leverage Brother’s size, manufacturing and R&D facilities, and sales networks to expand its global reach. For Brother, Domino will bring opportunities in new market sectors, as well as a strong customer base built on long term relationships.”
Domino employs 2,600 people worldwide and sells to more than 120 countries through a global network of 25 subsidiary offices and more than 200 distributors. Domino’s manufacturing facilities are situated in China, Germany, India, Sweden, Switzerland, U.K. and U.S.
