President of Diamond, has plans to expand the company, tak- ing it into new markets and opening up new revenue streams. In order to accommodate the growth, the company needed to focus on two areas. First, the move to a new larger facility, currently underway. Second, the installation of a new state-of- the-art 10-color printing press that could meet the growing — and changing — demands of the converter. In order to meet that challenge, Diamond turned to press manufacturer Uteco. Charlie Guida, Diamond Flexible Packaging, ( right ), welcomes the addition of a new Uteco Onyx press to help the company expand into new markets. Guida credits the personnel of Diamond with helping guide the company’s continued growth. Guida points in particular to Chad Stonecipher, VP Operations ( left ), who has lead the Diamond team in its expansion efforts. “A great deal of what we’ve accomplished is a testament to Chad and the way in which Diamond’s employees take such pride and care in their work.”
