Wedding at Markem-Imaje
Tuesday, June 29th, 2010Markem-Imaje Australia would like to send their warmest wedding wishes to our Services Technician, Richard Cetinic and his lovely wife Sharyn, who were married on the 16 April, 2010. Both of them were high school sweethearts and it took Richard only fifteen years to pop the most important question of his life. They will not just be having any old honey-moon, but a World Tour! Their first stop will be France, then on to Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Croatia and then, Greece, before stopping off at Dubai on their way home.
From all of us here at Markem-Imaje, enjoy your exciting honey-moon, and, may it be the beginning of a wonderful life together.
On behalf of us all.
At Markem-Imaje, we believe that green business is good business.

Inks designed to reduce our ecological footprint
Having already developed methanol-free inks and ensured its products comply with the European RoHS directive, Markem-Imaje continues to focus on reducing the environmental impact of its inks. Equally important, Markem- Imaje values impeccable print quality, and with this in mind, has recently launched new consumable references that meet IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) standards.
The new inks, which comply with maximum halogen limits, avoid the release of toxic fumes, thereby improving operator safety and end-of-life product recycling. These more eco-friendly inks, designed for use in 9000 Series inkjet printers, also offer levels of quality and user convenience that make them ideal for use in the electronics and cabling industries: they are quickdrying, resistant to friction and cleaning with alcohol, available in black and white, etc.
