The PFI Group has acquired Novum Graphics, which it has relocated from Stratford in London and merged with Maidstone-based Speedscreen, which it acquired in June 2022.
Tim Hill will head up the new Novum Speedscreen operation, with Emile Melki, the MD of Novum Graphics also on board.
Novum – which has a range of wide-format kit in its production arsenal – has been in business for over 20 years working for both the public and private sector across retail, exhibition/events, interiors, sports, showrooms and corporate sectors. Clients have included the likes of the BBC, Samsung, Nike, Burberry.
PFI Group CEO Darren McMurray said of the group’s latest acquisition: “We are thrilled with this – it’s another demonstration of our growth ambitions. Novum Speedscreen is one of the few UK companies offering wide-format screen printing up to 3m x 1.5m alongside digital print capabilities.”
Hill added: “We are all really pleased with the seamless integration of Novum with Speedscreen – up and running all kit within two days. The combination is a powerful one and I certainly am excited with this next chapter in my 38 years of being part of Speedscreen. PFI is becoming a real powerhouse in the industry.”
