GMerix, a supplier of industrial coatings and converting solutions, is now the exclusive distributor of Polyplex’s Saraprint digital media films in Canada. This partnership provides Canadian businesses with direct access to high-performance polyester films designed for digital printing, labels, and flexible packaging applications.

In addition to distributing Saraprint films, GMerix will offer custom coating and converting services, allowing customers to enhance Saraprint’s performance by combining it with GMerix’s advanced adhesives and coating technologies and making it locally available.

Saraprint is an innovative, non-tearable polyester film designed specifically for the digital print media segment. It is ideal for applications such as photo albums, general commercial printing, promotional and customized digital printing, mini-offset printing, labels, and flexible packaging. The film exhibits excellent thermal and dimensional stability, enhanced ink adhesion, and durability, ensuring compatibility with leading HP Indigo and dry toner digital printing equipment, with many grades certified by HP Indigo.

With GMerix as the exclusive distributor of Saraprint films in Canada, businesses will no longer need to source Saraprint from international markets – instead, they can leverage local access, faster lead times, and expert support.

Through this partnership, GMerix customers can customize Saraprint films using its advanced manufacturing capabilities, including:

• Custom Adhesives & Coatings – GMerix can apply hot-melt and water-based pressure sensitive adhesives, transforming Saraprint films into ready-to-print and diecut labelstock.

• Product Development – GMerix’s R&D team collaborates closely with clients to develop custom-made adhesive and non-adhesive materials and digital media tailored to application-specific needs.
• Responsive Logistics & Lead Times – With domestic inventory and fulfillment, GMerix enables shorter lead times and dependable delivery for North American customers.
