Charlotte, NC, September 15, 2010– Global anilox supplier Harper Corporation of America is expanding its international profile again.

In late August, Harper’s printing and coating supplies division, HarperScientific™, signed a formal distribution agreement with Chemisolutions S.A.S. The Colombia, South America-based firm provides sales and support for performance- and quality-improving chemical compounds used within the graphic arts and plastics industries.

The new agreement provides Chemisolutions with exclusive distribution rights throughout its home country for Ceram Clean II™ and CeramClean Solv-it™ -- two of Harper’s most widely used ink cleaning products. Jose Noel Gomez serves as General Manager of Chemisolutions; he can be contacted at [email protected]

“Harper distributors add much to our service commitment by providing technical advice and enhancing the everyday supplier/customer relationship,” said Jim Harper, HarperScientific™ Vice President. “Jose Gomez and staff at Chemisolutions are a valued addition; we look forward to working with them.”

Anilox roll cleaner Ceram Clean II™ effectively removes water-based, UV and solvent dried inks from engravings without damaging the cell structure on ceramic and chrome cylinders. The cleaner also removes roll face stains. Harper’s biodegradable CeramClean Solv-it™ is scientifically designed for deep cleaning of solvent-based inks, adhesives and UV coatings. The cleaner is completely free of petroleum distillates.
