We have used them for both end-of-board and on-face printing applications. The equipment is durable and the pricing is reasonable. All-in-all, a good choice for this industry.”

John Murray - Director, Business Development

“I chose Matthews because I was able to talk with someone live on the phone when first calling them, and a Matthews Sales Rep followed up with an email. One of the greatest benefits of being a customer is to be personally trained in our building, and demo the systems before buying.”

Clifford Potters - Operations Manager

“I would recommend Matthews to anyone that is interested in looking for printing solutions, as they have been a pleasure to work with in person or on the telephone. Their team has made me very happy that we chose Matthews for our printing solutions. Also, the install was amazing.”

Allan Ritchie - Maintenance Supervisor

We were given the most outstanding after-sales support and (Matthews has) continued to solve any issues we faced during the past five years.

(Matthews) helped us to upgrade our system and we achieved high quality printing with substantial savings.

The outstanding performance of Matthews, and our Sales Rep in particular, motivated us to make another investment with confidence. We shared our success story with our sister companies and several plants are currently purchasing or planning to acquire Matthews systems.
