Garry Colyer will become the new Managing Director of Arctic Paper in UK as from the 1st of January 2007. He has great experience from the paper and publishing industry. Arctic Paper UK has gone through significant changes and continuous improvement during the last year. Garry Colyer´s assignment will now be to continue to develop the demand for the product brands Munken, Arctic and Amber and to expand the Arctic Paper business during 2007 and onwards.
I am really looking forward to my new challenge. We will focus on strengthening the cooperation with our strategic partners and with our direct customers and will continue to expand the Arctic Paper business. I look forward to working with the great brands in the Arctic Paper range, says Garry Colyer.
Arctic Paper UK has seen a continuous improvement over the past year. During 2007 and 2008 Arctic Paper will focus on developing the business, specifically within the design and publishing segments. But the company will also strengthen the three product brands of Munken, Amber and Arctic.
The Arctic Paper assortment is stronger than ever. We have just launched several new Munken products. The entire Munken range is now FSC certified, including all Munken Design and Munken Book papers. We believe that all our new qualities will be of great interest to our design aware customers. With an improved product portfolio and Garry’s long experience in the paper industry I am confident that we can foresee a good development for Arctic Paper in the UK, says Hans Karlander, Sales and Marketing Director, Arctic Paper AB.
