WOLSTENHOLME International is venturing behind the 'iron curtain'.
The Darwen firm has appointed GKS International as agent/distributor in Russia to supply the firm's metallic pigments and inks.
"The prospects for the Russian market are good and we are confident that GKS International's connections will help us to quickly establish a strong presence there," said Keith Carter, Wolstenholme International's metallic pigments division sales director.
"Already we have identified an active wallpaper industry as a significant market for our products."
