Comexi Group Finalizes Acquisition of ACOM Business Unit

Published: December 31, 2010

Back in June 2010, Comexi Group and ACOM agreed to allow Comexi Converting Solutions, an Italian subs. of Comexi Group, to offer its range of gravure presses together with the know-how and technology of ACOM. This arrangement also included the provision of technical assistance for installed machines.

“We now have the pleasure to announce that Comexi Converting Solutions, as of December 15, 2010, completed the final acquisition of tangible and intangible assets of ACOM, Srl, "which has a technological line entirely synergistic with the Group's activity,” according to Manel Xifra, president of Comexi Group, who adds, “We strongly value the sales development of this line."

This business area of Comexi Group, led by Gian Vito Schiavi, will be based in Podenzano (Piacenza, Italy) and will rely on its 50+ years of experience and knowledge in manufacturing, rotogravure presses, and customer service.

In the context of this new activity in the supply of gravure presses, the Acom brand will be initially maintained, although eventually it will be fully integrated in the broader offer of Comexi Group.
