Per the 9th of May 2014, Chrysal International will take over all activities of MAC Technologies.
From that date on Chrysal International will be the owner of the Arrive Alive and Transporter 10 brands (which have been developed by MAC Technologies). Arrive Alive is a patented horticultural foam-wrap which hydrates flowers during transport, and is a perfect solution for florists and online flower sales. Joep Wiegel (CEO of Chrysal International) and Wayne Castleberry (CEO of MAC Technologies Develop. Corp): ‘We are happy to announce this transaction between Chrysal and Arrive Alive. It will bring us more opportunities to grow the sales of Arrive Alive in the USA and Europe and makes us more flexible to anticipate on customer needs.’ Wayne will continue working for Arrive Alive and will help Chrysal with product development.
Arrive Alive by Chrysal
Arrive Alive by Chrysal applied to the stems will hydrate flowers during transport. It keeps flowers beautiful without the need for a bucket or vase with water and is therefore extremely user friendly. With the acquisition of MAC Technologies, Chrysal plans to introduce the larger Arrive Alive S-Block for ‘European’ hand tied bouquets in the third quarter of 2014. In the USA Chrysal will continue to carry both Arrive Alive and the Transporter 10 in the assortment. Arrive Alive will be positioned as a transport solution to enable online flower sales. The Transporter 10 is a patented delivery system which prevents transport damage to flower arrangements. No more broken stems, cracked containers and spilled water. An ideal solution for florists and flower delivery services.
