Supporting a 2016 roll-out of the world's largest UV curing systems portfolio, solutions developers Integration Technology Ltd (ITL) and partner IST Metz have relocated their US sales and support operations to a wholly-owned, purpose-designed facility in Illinois.

The new ITL/IST America headquarters (above) near Chicago's O'Hare International Airport provide 60% more space than their former premises at Bolingbrook and offer ample scope for development as the companies continue to grow their US market share.

The location at Shorewood benefits from a newly refitted reception, offices, meeting, catering and break-out areas, as well as a large warehouse and technical support workspace.

ITL/IST America currently employ some 14 staff engaged in sales, administration and technical support, some of whom are regionally based. Both companies expect to grow their North American market teams during 2016.

Says ITL Business Development Manager, David Bohn:

"This group investment underscores our continued believe in commitment to a strong market here in which our joint sales have remained ahead of organic market growth. Relocation brings us twice as much administration, support and warehouse space than previously with plenty more available to accommodate projected business growth. Most importantly, the new facility allows us to better deliver on our one-stop-shop offer of the broadest portfolio of UV arc and LED curing products available from any single source."
