NOVA PRESSROOM PRODUCTS, "LLC"
JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA

Nova Pressroom Products, LLC, established in February 2007, is an independently owned manufacturer known for its line of blanket and roller washes within the Graphic Arts Industry. The company originated with the consolidation of experienced technical and business professionals from Anchor LithKemKo when this prominent pressroom chemical supplier closed its manufacturing site in Florida. Nova Pressroom Products prioritizes producing safe, effective, and environmentally compliant products while maintaining prompt delivery at reasonable prices. The company expanded shortly after its inception with the inauguration of a 23,500 square foot Manufacturing and Research Center in North Jacksonville, Florida, in early 2008. In April 2009, Nova further solidified its operations with a separate 2,200 square-foot Corporate Headquarters and Customer Call Center. As a production site for Nova's fountain solutions, water-based coatings, UV coatings, and specialty products, the facility plays a crucial role in meeting diverse market demands. With over 160 distinct product offerings, Nova serves both sheetfed and web printers across the United States, Canada, Latin America, and Asia through an extensive dealer network. The company benefits from the expertise of its highly experienced technical staff, fostering robust partnerships within the industry. Nova's business model emphasizes core competencies in printing chemical technology while offering hands-on problem-solving support that appeals to both small businesses with their flexible approaches and larger printers seeking superior service. Leadership at Nova includes seasoned professionals like Dan Roll, who leads fountain solution product development with significant background in alcohol-free ink formulation. Don Tartt, Vice President of Operations, ensures cost-effectiveness while overseeing manufacturing and customer interactions, backed by 21 years' experience with Anchor. Ray Brady, as Vice President of Technical Services, focuses on sustainable press wash solutions for environmentally stringent markets. President Ronald J. Rose brings over three decades of industry knowledge in channel operations across major global regions. The company's aqueous and UV coatings stand on the legacy left by Chuck Malspies, an innovator whose formulations set foundational standards for Nova’s product line. After his passing in 2011, the commitment to maintaining rigorous quality and customer-centric innovations remains integral to their success. Nova engages its customers through direct communication technologies allowing access to specialized formulators and a website offering comprehensive resources and interactive platforms. The company embraces strong word-of-mouth advocacy bolstered by early adopters within the printing community. Moreover, industry trends towards digital printing do not deter Nova’s focus, given offset printing's sustained need amid evolving press technologies. Headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, at 1663 N. McDuff Ave., Nova operates under a business classification as FLAL and adheres to meticulous regulatory practices, with its status publicly accessible through [novapressroomproducts.com](http://novapressroomproducts.com).

Gregory Rose serves as one of the key managers, reinforcing Nova's legacy within the Graphic Arts sector.
