VAUGHAN, ON, Aug. 22, 2013 /CNW/ - Advertek Printing has acquired the assets of Peel Graphics Inc. for expanded services and printing innovations. With Peel Graphics now welcomed into the Advertek family, the joint expertise in vendor solutions will greatly contribute towards expanding the suite of print and communication product offerings and strengthen overall client experience.

Clients will continue to receive the utmost quality and customer experience they have come to know as standard practice at Advertek. Both companies are industry leaders and this merger ensures that Advertek will be poised to offer greater innovation and printing solutions to current clients and to the industry at large.

"Advertek's focus is on quality and the client experience. Our foremost commitment is to our clients and to our staff. Our passion is to ensure that the experience is exemplary. Our customers know that we can help them solve their needs and exceed their targets," says Joe Montalbano, Principal and Director of Sales, who along with Simon Spina, Principal and Director of Finance, were responsible for initiating and securing the acquisition. "Peel Graphics shares this same commitment, making the integration seamless. Clients of both companies can expect it to be business as usual, but with a broader suite of services, skills and solutions to meet the growing demands and complexities of the industry."

Peel Graphics staff, including Andrew Cook, President and Susan Nyilas, General Manager has joined the team at Advertek, and relocated to the Advertek office in Vaughan, at its state of the art facility with print and communication services all under one roof.

The "newly expanded" Advertek now offers branding and creative design services, customized e-stores, litho sheetfed, wide format and digital printing, direct mail and full letter shop services in-house, binding and die cutting services with specialty finishes, fulfillment, warehousing, distribution, and remote access proofing.
