Sawgrass Expands Focus into Industrial/Production Markets; Trimble, Knudsen to Lead Sales Efforts in Americas, Europe

CHARLESTON, SC, USA - Sawgrass Technologies, Inc., a leading global innovator of digital ink technologies, announced today that the company is increasing its focus into the industrial and production market and appointed two experienced graphics market professionals to lead industrial/production sales in the Americas and Europe.

“From our Sawgrass Europe platform, and with the launch of our Basel, Switzerland manufacturing operations in late 2006, we have been able to speed development of several new inks designed especially for the high-volume and high-speed graphics environment,” said Nathan Hale, Sawgrass founder and CEO. “We are again raising the performance standard for sublimation inks while we also finish testing a major new class of digital inks.”

Two graphics industry veterans, each with more than 20 years experience, have been appointed to lead sales efforts in the industrial/production market. Mark Trimble has been named Sales Director ­ Americas, and Niels Knudsen has been named Sales Director ­ Europe, each with the mission to develop solutions targeted to high-volume and high-speed customers. Trimble comes to Sawgrass after founding Inkjet MD, an Atlanta-based consulting firm focused on effective workflows. Knudsen has been part of Sawgrass Europe since it acquired Denmark-based Rotech Digital in 2005. Both Trimble and Knudsen will be part of the Sawgrass Technologies booth at the International Sign Association tradeshow in Las Vegas, April 12-14. Knudsen will report to Dr. Mickael Mheidle, Sawgrass Europe CEO.

Hale noted, “Mark and Niels have each distinguished themselves as savvy and results-focused graphics professionals. We are delighted to welcome Mark to Sawgrass, and congratulate Niels on his broadened responsibilities.”

“I am pleased to join Sawgrass and be part of this exciting new chapter in digital decorating and imaging solutions,” said Mark Trimble. “I can’t wait until Sawgrass customers get to see our next-generation high performance inks in operation at ISA.”

Added Knudsen, “Sawgrass is known around the world for its innovative digital ink solutions. With the new inks coming out of our European headquarters in Basel, we will be well-positioned to meet the needs of companies with the most demanding of workflows.”
