Graph-Tech USA (GTUS) has been authorised by Trimatt Systems to sell its award-winning CardLine 7000 solution in the Americas, in a major win for the Australian innovator as it seeks to expand its global footprint.

The CardLine 7000 is Trimatt’s versatile system for the production of personalised and packaged SIM-cards, gift cards, and other packaged products.

“Our collaboration with Trimatt Systems is set to revolutionise the card personalisation and packaging industry in the Americas,” said Markus Portmann, president of GTUS.

“It marks a new chapter of innovation aimed at meeting the increasing demand for advanced brand protection and security, while addressing the gap left by legacy suppliers focusing on other sectors.

“The CardLine 7000 is a proven, easy-to-operate, and affordable machine that has become the standard for card personalisation and packaging, from Australasia to the Middle East, and beginning to gain traction in Europe.

“Trimatt has been our OEM partner in Australia for many years, and we are pleased to now offer Trimatt’s CardLine 7000 in the Americas.”

Trimatt has earned a strong reputation for its expertise in developing integrated systems that adapt to the ever-changing demands of the printing, packaging, and card production industries.

Decades ago, Trimatt partnered with Graph-Tech, a Swiss company known for its rich history of producing controllers. Portmann later founded GTUS in 2002, and the partnership with Trimatt continued.

“Our partnership with GTUS, which has spanned over 30 years, has led to successful collaborations across various global markets. We are confident the CardLine 7000 will develop a strong presence in the Americas through GTUS,” said Matt Johnson, founder and managing director of Trimatt.

GTUS has been at the forefront of pioneering next-generation controllers, card personalisation systems, and inkjet printers.

The collaboration with Trimatt Engineering to market the CardLine 7000, complete with the integrated controller and inkjet from GTUS, aims to advance these combined technologies and redefine standards in the global card industry.
