The various companies serve the three major processes of the printing industry: offset, flexography and gravure.

Other products include embossing rolls and machinery, repro, gravure cylinders and photopolymer printing plates. The Solutions Division showcases a comprehensive range of products including CARE cleaners, Rotec sleeve systems, tapes, proofers and CellBase, Pamarco's unique anilox volume measuring system.

Accel Graphic Systems Inc., headquartered in Dallas, TX, manufactures the GATF Award winning Tempest Hot Air Drying System, the Crestline, AccuFlow and Altra Series Continuous Dampeners, the PowderPro Spraying System, and the Sentinel Ink Management System. In addition, Accel distributes PrintWorks quality pressroom

chemistry and supplies.

Chicago Manifold Products, Inc., Wheeling, IL, produces high quality rubber rollers for various OEMs and is well-known for the Syn-Tac brand of replacement rollers, as well as pressroom consumables.

Diamond Holding Corporation, Marietta, GA, specializes in the manufacture and supply of printing rollers, proprietary elastomer formulations, and a line of low VOC roller washes.

The existing management team, led by CEO Terry Ford, will continue to operate the Pamarco Technologies group of companies. According to Ford, this purchase will pave the way for further expansion through the development of new products and the acquisition of other companies as well as greater utilization of the existing synergies of the group.
