Established in 1969 as K-Lite Pty Ltd, YPP today is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the privately-owned company. With headquarters in Riverwood, Sydney and sales offices throughout the ANZ region, the distribution agreement extends to YPP’s East Tamaki, Auckland operation for supply throughout the North and South islands.
Starleaton’s General Manager Ben Eaton comments: “YPP is a perfect partner for us in the New Zealand market as they are already dealing with most of the major signage and display companies using flat panels. By adding our broad range of flexible media such as vinyls, polyesters, textiles, poster papers, photographic media, self-adhesives and laminates; both YPP and Starleaton will be able to expand their businesses while delivering a much improved supply and support chain to New Zealand customers.”
The digital wide-format graphics market continues to out-perform the rest of the printing industry, posting annual growth rates in excess of 6%. With brand names such as Neschen, SEAL, Contra Vision®, HELIXx, and others, Starleaton offers the broadest range of roll media available to cater for all machine sizes up to 5 metres.
YPP’s General Manager, NZ, Doug Rencher says: “The addition of Starleaton’s flexible roll media range is a natural progression of YPP’s product range and services to our New Zealand customers. It gives us a wider product base to establish relationships with our customers. The benefit of the association with Starleaton is the close proximity of the backup support and also the availability of product without long delays from overseas suppliers. We are excited about this new venture and see it as a long term partnership.”
