Tonejet, the leading manufacturer of advanced electro-static drop-on-demand digital print engines, today announces the appointment of Marvin Foreman as worldwide Sales Manager.

Utilising its unique and groundbreaking digital print technology, Foreman is responsible for Tonejet’s worldwide go-to-market sales strategy. Part of this strategy will include educating the industry as to the business building and profit generating benefits of Tonejet technology. With initial focus on the craft beverage sector and big breweries, Foreman will drive sales of Tonejet’s 2-Piece Can & Tube Digital Decorator, while further developing the company’s worldwide sales and service network. 

“I am delighted to join Tonejet. This business is at the very cutting edge of digital print technology, with customers and their requirements at the heart of everything they do,” comments Marvin Foreman.

“Like digital print for the commerical print market, Tonejet technology now allows short to medium run container and can printing – crucially, at high speed and low cost. Due to these production benfits, as well as the unique marketing and sales opportunities enabled by the personalisation and versioning capabilities, the opportunities for can printers, craft brewers and large breweries are significant. I genuinely believe that Tonejet is on the cusp of delivering another digital print revolution.”

Marvin Foreman joins Tonejet from FujiFilm Graphic Systems in the USA, where he was a Technical Sales Manager. During his 10 years with FujiFilm, Marvin was responsible for selling a range of consumable products to Screen, Digital and Flexo businesses. He was also responsible for sales of digital printing equipment to national and international US print houses. Foreman is based at Tonejet’s UK headquarters in Cambridge.

The Tonejet 2-Piece Can & Tube Digital Decorator utilises electrostatic drop-on-demand deposition technology for high speed, high-quality print on virtually any substrate. Offering 600 dpi through four colours, the Tonejet system is built for true industrial use. Utilising nozzle-less print heads for market leading system reliability, the Tonejet 2-Piece Can & Tube Digital Decorator greatly reduces printer downtime and costly head replacement.
