Print & Pack Australia Pty Ltd

What Print & Pack Australia Pty Ltd does

Print & Pack Australia Pty Ltd is a privately-held, technology-independent distributor of printing and packaging capital equipment and consumables, headquartered in Macquarie Park, Sydney, with offices in Melbourne and Auckland. Founded in 1980 (originally as Craven Engineering, later operating under the Ferrostaal group before rebranding in 2016), the company serves printing and packaging manufacturers across Australia and New Zealand through a direct enterprise field-sales motion, distributing premium European and Japanese OEM brands including Bobst, Komori, Q.I. Press Controls, Baumer hhs, Rodicut, Apex International, Mouvent, Lamina, and others.

The product portfolio spans six equipment categories — Fibreboard Printing & Converting, Web Printing & Converting, Digital Printing, Offset Sheetfed Print, Packaging Systems, and Print Finishing — plus a consumables line (anilox rolls, sleeves, doctor blades, adhesives, glue systems) and three service offerings (Technical Assistance with PMAs and emergency support, OEM Spare Parts, and Wear-and-Tear Parts). The company does not manufacture equipment; instead it acts as the ANZ sales, installation, training, and aftermarket channel for its OEM partners, with 19 employees executing pre-installation consultancy, commissioning, operator training, and after-hours service.

Revenue is generated through one-time capital-equipment sales of high-end presses and packaging machinery, transaction-fee revenue from consumables and OEM spare parts, and professional-services revenue from technical-assistance contracts and preventive maintenance agreements. Pricing is quote-based and individually negotiated, with credit terms available to qualified buyers. Customer segments include folding-carton producers, corrugated manufacturers, flexible-materials converters, point-of-sale material producers, and industrial automation customers requiring end-of-line packaging solutions.
