Media Services Group and technotrans jointly announce a cooperative agreement whereby Media Services will represent technotrans in the North American optical medium market. Media Services will add technotrans galvanic and related equipment to the already impressive array of equipment and service they offer to optical disc replicators. Media Services Group has been serving the Optical Disc Industry since 2001. They offer a broad product range, including a wide variety of new and used equipment sales and services, spare parts sales, and CD/DVD replication services. With the addition of the technotrans line of galvanic and related products, they are now truly a one-stop shop for post-mastering optical disc replication equipment and service. "Media Services Group will be augmenting, rather than replacing, technotrans' sales efforts in North America", according to Robert Szokolay, Vice President of technotrans america, inc., technotrans AG's American subsidiary. "We'll continue to provide service and spare parts for technotrans equipment, as well as installing our equipment sold by Media Services", said Szokolay. "But we're very impressed with Media Services' established customer base and solid commitment to providing quality equipment and services. Therefore, we think MSG will be a key asset in furthering our efforts to penetrate the North American market. It's a good fit." technotrans AG manufactures high precision electroforming equipment. Together with its subsidiaries and agents around the globe, it is the worldwide leader in providing electroforming equipment to the optical disc industry. President of Media Services, Ed Virgie, stated that technotrans is one of the few companies willing to invest in research and development in order to constantly improve the speed and quality of their equipment. They are also positioned to be the industry leader in electroplating of HD DVD and Blu-ray formats.
This is collaboration between a world market leader manufacturer and a domestic service provider leader. The synergy between technotrans and Media Services Group should bring better products and service to more of the American optical media market.
