(PRWEB) July 3, 2008 -- Colter & Peterson announced that it has formed a strategic partnership with Knorr Systeme to provide C&P Peripheral paper handling equipment for its network of dealers around the world.      

Colter and Peterson sought a new partner to supply its peripheral equipment on a global scale because this equipment was no longer available from its former supplier. Since Colter and Peterson was already familiar with the full range of equipment available from Knorr Systeme, this partnership was a natural fit for both companies.

"In working together with Knorr Systeme we can now offer our mutual customers packages of equipment that include our new Saber and Prism-HPM cutting machines together with new Knorr Systeme peripheral equipment," says Bruce Peterson, President of Colter and Peterson. "Knorr products have outstanding quality. C&P will continue to be able to offer its customers complete paper handling systems including air tables, stacklifts, joggers, grippers and unloaders from Knorr Systeme."
