Intelligent Finishing Systems (IFS) Technical Sales Director of Jason Seaber this month marked 30 years working in the British printing industry by investing in his, and the company’s, future.

He has become a shareholder with an agreement to buy more shares over the coming five years.

Seaber says: “I am very proud to become a shareholder in Intelligent Finishing Systems and very much look forward to continuing to help grow and develop the business with Co-Directors’ Bryan Godwyn, Alan Harrison and all the fantastic staff without whom we would not have such a successful company.

“I would like to thank everyone that I have worked with at IFS (and Graphic Arts Equipment previously) and all our customers and principal manufacturers, particularly Horizon, for their long term support.

“The British printing industry is very much alive and kicking and I look forward to continuing to make a contribution by providing best in class finishing and binding solutions.”

IFS Managing Director and majority shareholder, Bryan Godwyn adds: “I’m equally delighted that Jason has now joined me as an equity holder and together we are committed to continuing to improve and serve our growing customer base. 

“Print and print finishing especially has an exciting future and we are fortunate to be at the forefront of it with incredible partners like Horizon, Foliant, Perfecta, Tecnau, SCS, Durselen and of course Petratto.

“Add to this the energy from our customers to improve and make things better using new technology, we are well placed to drive forward here in the UK and Ireland.”
