Directors appointed at Linx Printing Technologies

Linx Printing Technologies has announced the appointment of Henk van Duijnhoven as Managing Director and Tony Stafford as Group Finance Director.

In January Linx came under new ownership following its acquisition by Danaher Corporation, an American Fortune 500 company, which manufactures and markets industrial and consumer products based on selected strategic platforms including Product Identification.

Appointed as Linx Managing Director with a view to leading the company through its next exciting period of development and growth, Henk van Duijnhoven joins Linx from the Danaher Product Identification Group where he held a number of senior roles.

Prior to Danaher, Henk served as Consultant with the Boston Consulting Group and holds a Masters of Business Administration from the Sloan School of Management, MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.

Also appointed is Tony Stafford, who joins Linx as Group Finance Director.

Most recently, Tony has served as Financial Controller of Zipher , a company owned by Danaher.

With its renowned range of continuous ink jet printers, impulse jet printers and Xymark laser coders, as well as its unrivalled reputation for reliable machines and excellent customer service, Linx is strengthening Danaher's Product Identification platform, complementing other well-known brands such as Videojet.

Under Danaher ownership, Linx retains its own identity, operating as a separate company.

Henk van Duijnhoven comments, "This is an exciting time for Linx and its customers".

"Whilst we will continue to promote Linx products through our existing worldwide distribution partners and subsidiaries, we will also be bringing on board other complementary products from the Danaher Product Identification Platform".

"Ongoing investment will enable us to offer our customers a broader range of coding solutions whilst continuing to offer products with the well-known Linx characteristics of unbeaten reliability, robustness and ease of use.
