Karl Salter • Mar 26, 2021

G-TEC ANNOUNCE PARTNERSHIP FOR FRENCH DISTRIBUTION OF TOUCHSHIELD™ WITH LONG-TERM ALLY GRAPHIC SYSTEMS FRANCE.

“Having worked with Diana and the team at Graphic Systems France for over 10 years, we are elated to have them on board as an official distribution partner for Touchshield™ within the French market”, commented Will Duggins G-Tec Managing Director. 

Touchshield™ is a unique range of clear, watermarked anti-microbial protective films for surfaces, designed to slow the spread of harmful microbes within publicly shared spaces. 

"GSF is delighted to have been chosen as the entry point into France for this revolutionary product. Touchshield™ will definitely enable us to get back to normal in all public places , enthused Diana Rimer, Managing Director. 

Diana continued "we have been working with the Gardiner Group for many years and the opportunity to represent them in France with this excellent product is very important for us. The unique watermark of this antimicrobial protective solution makes it very easy for anyone to see which surfaces are protected or not. We are now living with COVID for over a year and the use of aggressive cleaning products and gels is not so popular in France. Touchshield™ will help enormously to get back to a normal way of life safely".

The French firm are hitting the ground running with their first stock order landing this month. "We are already about to equip the first French supermarket with Touchshield™ antimicrobial protection on all trolley handles, cash registers at checkouts and on the touch screens of the petrol pumps as well as in their offices. Watch this space to see Touchshield™ in action!."

GSF are fully stocked with both PVC and PET versions in a selection of consumable sizes as well as clear un-watermarked options for kiosk screens, ready to service the French market in all sectors.
