Sharp and Formax have announced a strategic alliance designed to expand office productivity, production print, and document workflow automation solutions for businesses and dealers across the U.S. The partnership combines Sharp’s multifunction printers, production print systems, and office technology platform with Formax’s finishing equipment, including folders, cutters, pressure sealers, shredders, and mailing systems. By integrating print and finishing technologies into a single workflow solution, the companies aim to help businesses improve efficiency, reduce labor costs, and streamline document processing operations. The alliance also gives Sharp dealers new opportunities to grow revenue through higher-margin production print and finishing services as the office printing industry continues shifting toward automation and managed workflow solutions in 2026.
