“We are excited to collaborate with ARC International. They are well-known and have a strong presence in every state, consistently participating in major events across the country,” says Simone Bonaria, COO of BFT Group.

In line with its global strategy to form partnerships with leading anilox roller manufacturers across various regions, BFT Group announces a significant partnership for the United States market with ARC International, founded by Mike Foran.
This collaboration in the American market will be led by Technoflex Inc., BFT Carbon’s pivotal distributor, under the leadership of Neil Livesey. With over 25 years of expertise in carbon fiber chambers, Neil is a central figure in the American flexographic printing industry, making Technoflex the cornerstone of this partnership.
ARC International, celebrating its 40th year of operation, has manufacturing facilities in Charlotte, NC, and Las Vegas, NV. The company supplies a comprehensive range of newly fabricated and reconditioned flexographic printing and corrugating rollers and roller cleaning products. ARC International has technical representatives strategically located across the Southeast, Northeast, Midwest, Southwest, Northwest, and Mexico, making it a full-service supplier to the corrugated, wide web, and narrow web industries.

“The American market is highly significant for BFT Group, prompting the development of the new single blade ON300, featuring an innovative design focused on minimizing consumable parts,“ Simone Bonaria continues.
“BFT Group’s product portfolio includes open and closed carbon fiber doctor blade chambers from BFT Carbon, comprehensive inking and wash-up systems, automatic viscometers, and the brand new INK600 instant ink consumption system. All these products will be presented to customers by the ARC Sales Team.“
Both BFT Group and ARC International will showcase their innovative solutions at North America’s largest corrugated event, SuperCorrExpo, in Orlando, FL, from September 8th to 12th, 2024. Industry professionals are invited to visit their booths and explore how this partnership can benefit their operations.
