Flint Group Packaging Inks announced its investment in a newly optimized Regional Service Centre (RSC) in Barcelona, Spain, galvanizing its commitment to customers in the region.
The site opening strengthens Flint Group Packaging Inks’ (Flexible Packaging and Paper & Board) position in the Spanish market.
Importantly, it brings the company closer to its customer base by enabling more localized technical and commercial services, as well as leveraging the benefits of the Group's global manufacturing and warehousing capabilities.
The 1,600-square-meter state-of-the-art RSC will be the regional base for the company's Iberian operations.
Based in Les Franqueses del Vallès, a Barcelona municipality, the center will offer customers a swift turnaround for blending services and local manufacturing alongside robust warehousing, logistical services and direct contact with experienced Flint Group commercial and technical teams.
"We are continually investing in our business to help our customers around the globe reach new heights; therefore, we are delighted to offer an enhanced service level to our new and existing customers in Spain," said Eric Dussaut, commercial director Western Europe for Flint Group Packaging Inks. "The investment reaffirms and strengthens our commitment to being the partner of choice to our Spanish packaging customers. Our customers in the region have been able to receive products from our European Mother Plants, but the opening of the RSC in Spain further solidifies our world-class product and service commitments to the area, helping us nurture even stronger relationships with our Packaging Inks’ customers.
"Along with this strategic investment we are also pleased to announce increased warehouse capacity for our solvent-based range of products. Clearly, we are proud to be investing in the local economy and generating jobs for people in the local area. Spain is an important market for Flint Group, and we are excited about the opportunities that lie ahead to grow the business and deliver the excellence in products and services that our customers have come to expect.”
