Foster Keencut Changes Corporate Name to Foster to Better Reflect Its Expanded Product Line

MONTGOMERYVILLE, Pa.—December 4, 2015—Foster Keencut—a major name in cutting devices and other postpress equipment for more than 65 years—has reduced its corporate name to simply Foster.

Announcing the change, Foster CEO Ted Borowsky said, "In recent years, Foster offerings grew beyond the popular Keencut products to include lifters and other equipment used by the same customers that have long valued the Foster Keencut cutting products. Foster remains the exclusive North and South American distributor for the popular Keencut brand. Our new name reflects our expanded product line."

For more than 65 years, Foster has provided finishing solutions for corporate users and businesses in the graphic arts industries. Founded as Foster Manufacturing, the company simplified the name to Foster in 2015 in recognition of a product line that has expanded well beyond cutters.

Throughout the Americas, Foster offers a complete selection of quality, precision cutters and trimmers for wide-format, sign-making and display graphics production. As a worldwide HP partner, Foster provides a complete line of lifters for handling the large media rolls used in grand- and large-format printing. Foster products are distributed through an extensive network of qualified graphic arts equipment dealers, and are also available from selected OEMs.
