EMT International, a leading supplier of finishing equipment to the digital print, label and packaging industries, has announced the appointment of Mike Herold as the new executive vice-president of Sales & Marketing for EMT International/Rotocontrol. 

Jim Driscoll, the outgoing executive VP of Sales & Marketing, after a 29-year career with the company, will transition to a new role as a consultant/advisor.

EMT International is focused on being a market-driven and technology-focused global industry leader and strong customer partner in the digital printing and label industries. It says these strategic leadership changes will strengthen its position and drive innovation and growth for the company.

Herold has over 16 years of experience in the inkjet industry. Throughout his career at previous employers Ricoh and IBM, Mike has demonstrated a track record of delivering strong results in partnership with customers, and a deep understanding of printing and finishing technologies for the digital print/label industries. 

Driscoll has been a member of EMT for 29 years and has played a pivotal role in driving the company’s success. He will continue to contribute his expertise and provide strategic guidance to the executive team, the company said.

His tremendous experience, exceptional track record, and passion for innovation and customer satisfaction will be instrumental in driving the growth of our company in the digital print and label markets. I would also like to express my gratitude to Jim Driscoll for his outstanding contributions to EMT/Rotocontrol specifically, and the industry overall.

With over 80 years of experience, EMT International is known as a world leader in engineering and manufacturing quality finishing equipment, accessories, and web transport solutions, serving OEM and converting customers worldwide in the paper, document processing, packaging, label, and printing industries.

EMT creates highly customized, application-driven solutions in offset, flexo and digital inkjet technologies. It is headquartered in Northeast Wisconsin in the US and Siek, Germany (Rotocontrol). In 2017, EMT completed the buyout of Rotocontrol, headquartered in Linau, Germany.

In 2024, we are looking at full recovery and growth-led investment in Indian printing

Indian Printer and Publisher founded in 1979 is the oldest B2B trade publication in the multi-platform and multi-channel IPPGroup. It created the category of privately owned B2B print magazines in the country. And by its diversification in packaging, (Packaging South Asia), food processing and packaging (IndiFoodBev) and health and medical supply chain and packaging (HealthTekPak), and its community activities in training, research, and conferences (Ipp Services, Training and Research) the organization continues to create platforms that demonstrate the need for quality information, data, technology insights and events.

India is a large and tough terrain and while its book publishing and commercial printing industry have recovered and are increasingly embracing digital print, the Indian newspaper industry continues to recover its credibility and circulation. The signage industry is also recovering and new technologies and audiences such as digital 3D additive printing, digital textiles, and industrial printing are coming onto our pages. Diversification is a fact of life for our readers and like them, we will also have to adapt with agility to keep up with their business and technical information needs.

India is one of the fastest growing economies in nominal and real terms – in a region poised for the highest change in year to year expenditure in printing equipment and consumables. Our 2024 media kit is ready, and it is the right time to take stock – to emphasize your visibility and relevance to your customers and turn potential markets into conversations.
