Sumitomo (SHI) Demag – IRISH PLASTIC PROCESSORS TO BENEFIT FROM NEW PARTNERSHIP

Injection moulding specialist Sumitomo (SHI) Demag has teamed up with global material handling and dosing specialist TSM Control Systems, headquartered in Dundalk, appointing the team as their new Northern and Southern Ireland agent.

The natural synergy between the two companies is an exciting development for the hub of plastics processors that manufacturer and export globally from Ireland, says TSM’s sales director Declan Byrne. 

In addition to benefiting from TSM’s large installation base and expertise in plastics blending, the partnership will provide customers with the assurance of working with a single supplier rather than numerous stakeholders. TSM’s sales manager John Ross MacMahonwill oversee all future turnkey plastic moulding and system integrations, providing on-the-ground customer support. 

Nigel Flowers, managing director of Sumitomo (SHI) Demag UK describes this as a real opportunity for the company to further strengthen its presence throughout Ireland. “We are very excited to be working in partnership with the team at TSM and regard their appetite for innovation and insight of the plastics sector in Ireland as a way to add more value to the relationships we share with existing and prospective customers.”
