As label converters continue to turn to integrated digital printing, flexo finishing and workflow systems, Durst Group has announced a threefold increase in sales of its hybrid solutions over the last 12 months, which the company claims is ‘driven by strong market demand for fully integrated, one-stop solutions for the modern digital label factory’.

Thomas Macina, Director Global Sales Labels and Flexible Packaging for Durst, says: “Our customers are not just investing in a press, they are investing in a complete production ecosystem. This sales growth reflects the market’s recognition of the integrated capabilities and scalability of our Digital Label Factory approach.”

As label converters face increasing pressure for shorter runs, faster turnaround times, greater SKU complexity, and more efficient use of production resources, Durst claims that its end-to-end ecosystem offers an integrated approach to these evolving requirements. By combining high-performance digital printing systems such as the new Durst Tau G3 digital print unit with hybrid configurations, advanced workflow software, finishing integration, and service support, Durst says that it can help customers develop an integrated digital label production environment designed to adapt to changing business needs.

The integrated approach includes High-speed, high-resolution digital inkjet printing Hybrid inline flexo and finishing capabilities Intelligent workflow and automation software Colour management and quality control systems Scalable configurations tailored to business growth

Macina adds: “By bringing these elements together in an integrated platform, Durst reduces the complexity of coordinating multiple vendors and disconnected systems. Customers can benefit from more streamlined implementation, production processes, and day-to-day operations.”

Beyond printing performance, Durst’s Digital Label Factory concept also brings together production workflows, ink management, and process automation within an integrated ecosystem. Centralised production management provides greater operational visibility and supports data-driven decision-making.

With continued innovation in hybrid technology, automation, and smart factory integration, any production platform that helps label converters simplify their production processes and respond to changing operational requirements, is likely to be embraced by the market. In this context, Durst’s ‘one-stop Digital Label Factory’ approach is clearly well-placed to support label producers as their businesses grow.
