Karl Knauer has been part of the PSI network for 40 years

Karl Knauer KG was honoured for 40 years of membership in the PSI network at this year's PSI Night in Düsseldorf. This long-standing membership represents much more than just a number: it is an expression of loyalty, trust and a strong partnership within the promotional products industry.

The promotional products division has a long tradition at Karl Knauer. The production of promotional products began back in 1972 with the first order for notepads with printed sides – an early example of the company's flexibility and innovative spirit.

A defining highlight of PSI membership was the much-acclaimed ‘Stick it War’ at PSI 2012, where the PSI logo at the entrance to the trade fair was created entirely from sticky notes, impressively demonstrating how classic promotional products can be creatively staged.

Karl Knauer has also been setting trends in the area of sustainability for years: Multiple awards at the PSI Sustainability Awards underline the company's commitment to consistently combining ecological, social and economic responsibility.

For Karl Knauer, the PSI network is much more than just a platform for product presentation. Continuous dialogue with industry partners, current developments and the joint advancement of sustainable solutions make PSI a central framework for networking and industry development to this day.

“40 years of PSI membership stand for active partnership and intensive dialogue within the industry,” says Heinz-Josef Klein, Director Sales at Karl Knauer. “The network has been with us for decades – and is still an important source of inspiration for us today, actively promoting innovation and sustainability in the promotional products sector.”
