SUN PRAIRIE, WI—Ownership of the print division at Royle Communications Group has switched hands. Chris Carpenter, COO, has structured a transaction to purchase the printing company from Richard Royle, president and CEO. The switch in ownership is one of many changes for the company, which specializes in high-quality web printing of catalogs, magazines and corporate collateral. It recently opened a new corporate headquarters in this Madison suburb. A 20,000-square-foot expansion was completed there in April. Additionally, the company has added new equipment in the form of a Muller Martini Norm perfect binder and a Muller Martini Prima SB saddle stitcher with inside/outside ink-jetting and personalization.
