"Our ERP packaging software fits strategically within EFI's solutions portfolio, and our clients will gain a supplier with a global footprint and the additional resources of a tier one organization. I look forward to managing the Radius product line within EFI’s world class organization."

EFI intends to integrate a number of its products including Fiery, Jetrion, Digital StoreFront, PrintFlow and Auto-Count, with the Radius Solutions product line. “We are very pleased to add Radius Solutions to our growing portfolio,” said Marc Olin, Sr. VP/GM APPS of EFI. “EFI’s goal is to offer our customers a complete product portfolio that assists them from job creation to production, while allowing them to be more efficient and effective, and ultimately, more profitable. Radius allows us to bring this concept to the packaging market, which is one of the largest segments of the print market, joining our Pace and Monarch MIS systems which are targeted to the display graphics and commercial print markets.”
