The UEI Group companies recently unveiled their new World Headquarters, located at 9000 Nieman Road, Overland Park, Kansas.
To commemorate, the UEI Group held an opening ceremony for their employees and local officials which concluded with a ribbon-cutting by Glenn and Sue Hutchison, the Chairman of the Board and his wife.
The new facility, which is in a former Sears building, contains a premier Research and Development program focused on developing new products and processes for the foil stamping and embossing industries. It is conveniently located to several other UEI Group facilities and adjacent to Universal Engraving, Inc’s headquarters facility.
With the continued growth and expansion of the UEI Group companies (Universal Engraving, Inc., UEI Systems, UEI Falcontec, and Infinity Foils, Inc.), it became important to have a separate UEI Group facility dedicated to the advancement and betterment of all UEI Group companies. Under the guidance of an executive team, the new headquarters staff can better coordinate the global needs of all UEI businesses, their market developers and customers.
Heading the executive team is Larry R. Hutchison, the President and CEO of Universal Engraving, Inc. “Helping each UEI Group company to better meet customer expectations, product needs and experiences is paramount with the Hutchison family and it’s an integral part of the core foundation that built each UEI Group company,” Hutchison says. “We are thrilled with our new UEI Group World Headquarters and the symbolism for which it stands and unites a unique group of companies for the betterment of the industries that they serve. You couldn’t ask for a better committed supplier than a UEI Group company,” he adds.
UEI Group’s product offering includes engraved flat dies; rotary dies and tools; lock-up systems; hot, cold and digital stamping foils; makeready materials; and decorative glitter. The supplier's products are highly sought-after for their reliability, precision, artistic execution and innovative efficiencies.
