Day International, a division of Flint Group, is a leading global supplier of transfer media printing blankets, to the heatset, coldset and packaging industry.

Given the continued challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic, Day International continues to face cost increases across the global supply chain, from logistics to raw materials as well as the additional cost impact arising from staffing shortages at its global manufacturing location in the United States.

“We are seeing a significant increase in demand for our packaging related products and are running our production facilities at peak levels, while adhering to practices recommended by the World Health Organization and local government agencies designed to keep our employees safe and healthy,” said Chad Holzer, business president Image Transfer Technologies. “However, we are facing unprecedented challenges with employee absenteeism due to COVID-19, delays in global supply chains, and critical raw material shortages.”

Due to these challenges, Day International is announcing the need to increase prices on printing blanket used in the heatset, coldset and commercial sheetfed market segments.
