Medea International Limited, makers of the Inkrite PhotoPlus ink and Toners, has acquired the trade and assets of JR Max Limited, owners of the technology and patents for the world-renowned JR Inkjet (Just Refill) brand of inkjet cartridge refill products. The JR Max operation will relocate to the 110,000 square ft headquarters in Dundee. Existing orders will be fulfilled from the current Essex base with a full switch to Dundee within two months.

The Just Refill product range reinforces Medea International as the UK's leading provider of printer consumables, as well as allowing further penetration of the European market where the products remain in huge demand.

The JR refill kits join a range already boasting the award winning Inkrite Photoplus ink cartridges (Added Value Product of the Year (Runner Up), Channel Expo Awards 2007), Inkrite Laser Toner cartridges, Infiniti DVD/CD/Bluray/HD-DVD optical media and PressIt disc labelling systems.

Yusuf Okhai, Managing Director of Medea International added, "JR is a world class brand and this acquisition further improves the range of unique world-beating products we are able to offer our partners. Medea has a class-leading range of products and industry-leading service levels. At a time where we are already experiencing exciting growth in the business, this will allow the company to reinforce its position as the supplier of choice within the industry. The recognition from the Channel Expo Awards that we deliver real added value as well as product and service excellence will really let resellers see that we are here to stay, we are here to succeed, and that their customers are the real winners here.
