MGX to add new digital coater & plans to double size of company headquarters

Press release from the issuing company

Fenton, MO – Masterpiece Graphix has finalized plans to more than double the size of its Fenton, Missouri facility, and to add a fourth digital coating line. These improvements will give MGX more coating capacity, increased throughput, and the ability to coat materials at higher speeds. This expansion will be complete in September.

The new high-speed coating line is state-of-the-art with the latest coating and curing technology for pristine clean and flawless coatings of all types. Plans for another sheet coating line are underway, as demand for MGX high-performance digital sheets hasincreased dramatically.

Larger office space will accommodate the rapidly-growing staff in the MGX corporate office. Twice the warehouse space will allow ample storage capacity for stocked digital sheet and roll materials. MGX maintains custom stock programs, keeping customers' unique list of materials in stock, ready to ship the same day, and reducing the need for large inventory levels at the customer's facility.

"We are excited about this expansion," said Doug Watson, president and CEO of Masterpiece Graphix. "What makes MGX unique is that we coat and stock hundreds of digital materials, because digital customers demand a huge variety of options. This expansion will allow us to better serve our customers' needs for top-quality digital materials, custom stocking programs, and quick ship service. I'm certain our growth and increased production capacity will facilitate growth and efficiencies in our customers' businesses as well."
