Muller Martini USA
Celebrates 50th Year
Muller Martini sold its fi rst machine in the United States in 1955.
In 1967, Th e Hans Muller Corporation was launched in the United
States and was later renamed Muller Martini USA. At the time,
the American market was actively seeking fi nishing solutions and
needed greater access to Muller Martini’s sales and support teams
that had resided in the company’s Switzerland headquarters since
1946. Fift y years later, the demand continues despite challenging
economic conditions triggered by print’s steady migration to digitally
based information. Now headquartered in Hauppauge, New
York, Muller Martini USA has consistently been at the forefront of
recognizing market trends and helping to engineer solutions that
take advantage of the opportunities that change presents.
