The deal includes products such as Elixir rolls, which can be used on sheetfed and web press pre-moistened blanket cleaning systems, along with Webril wipes and Nubtex shop cloths.

Steve Brading, Paperlinx business development director, said the deal reinforces the company's reputation as a single source supplier of print consumables throughout the UK. The firm is already a reseller for the likes of Agfa, Trelleborg and Sun Chemical.

However, he added that since its launch in November last year, TPS hadn't rolled out as fast as he would have liked, and the business is still recruiting for a high-quality technical sales manager for the London and Home Counties area.

Paper merchant Paperlinx launched TPS in November last year, and the service is available to customers of PaperCo and Robert Horne Group.
