SATO AT A
GLANCE

|
| SATO Corporation, Japan, was
established in 1940 to manufacture and sell packaging machinery. In 1962, SATO invented
the world's first hand-held labeler and operations as an international supplier of
labeling machinery were begun. The US subsidiary was established in 1977 and eventually
became SATO America, Inc. in 1987. During that period, SATO developed the world's first
thermal transfer bar code printers and became the leader in applying the technology to the
market. |
Since SATO's 1979 introduction of the world's first thermal transfer bar code printer,
Model 2311, SATO has continued to be in the forefront of thermal printing technologies. SATO
America, Inc. based in Sunnyvale, California currently has regional offices in New Jersey,
Massachusetts, California, Georgia and Illinois, with subsidiaries in six countries. Our
product line includes direct thermal and thermal transfer printers, OEM print engines,
printer accessories, label design software, labels and thermal transfer ribbons.
Today, SATO continues its tradition of designing and manufacturing high quality
industrial printers that deliver reliable performance with each print job. |
