Duplo said the deal would complement its range of products and systems, which include trimmers, binders, collators and guillotines.
"Our agreement with GMP enables us to offer customers the very best in laminating technology, which is an integral part of the finishing process," said Duplo's UK general manager Jan Jefferies (pictured left).
The GMP laminator range will be sold via Duplo's direct sales force. The deal has seen the sale of the first machine, with Marston Books buying a Protopic-520 laminator.
SG Ra (pictured right), European managing director of GMP, said: "The agreement is a significant venture for us as it will present our range to a wider audience through Duplo's extensive sales network."
