Matthews Australasia is celebrating a significant milestone, having sold its 1000th FOX IV Label Printer Applicator (LPA). The 1000th unit was displayed at Matthews’ AUSPACK PLUS stand and will be part of a solution that Matthews designed to fit a well-known snack line.

“Matthews Australasia is without question our best distributor - worldwide,” said Rick Fox, President and CEO of FOX IV Technologies. “They have achieved this milestone primarily because of their ability to design solutions that work in demanding production environments and provide value-add to customers by understanding their labelling requirements, as well as business requirements, and their people.

“We could manufacture the best products in the world but we would not be successful if we didn’t have distributors with the technical skills and the customer focus that Matthews provides in Australia.”

Having been a manager with Matthews International for 20 years, Fox bought the company’s symbol and labelling division in 1996, creating FOX IV Technologies.
