ROGERS, MN - Eston Chimica, a leading supplier of inks and coatings to package printers in Italy and Southern Europe, announced a change to its company name and logo. Effective Feb. 1, 2018, the new company name is Eston Chimica, a Flint Group Company.

In December 2017, Flint Group, a global supplier of inks and coatings to the printing and packaging industry, announced the acquisition of Eston Chimica, which manufactures and sells water-based inks for flexo and gravure applications. The company supports key paper and board applications, such as corrugated, shopping bags, paper bags and various other water-based print jobs.

Doug Aldred, President Packaging Inks for Flint Group, commented, “Flint Group is extremely pleased and proud to add Eston Chimica to their family and understands the importance of the Eston Chimica brand. The respect, customer loyalty and name recognition of Eston Chimica weighed heavily on the company’s decision to retain the Eston Chimica brand alongside the Flint Group name. The identities, presented together, highlight the new and combined strength of the companies.”

Starting from early February, customers and industry partners will see the new look of the Eston Chimica brand.
