Interprint GmbH from Arnsberg, Germany, and a member of the Toppan Group since October 2019, is continuing its successful strategy of investing in digital print. The company recently ordered another RotaJET digital web press from Koenig & Bauer.

The new press is scheduled to start production in the first half of 2021. The RotaJET 225 will allow Interprint to process web widths up to 225cm (7.4ft). “We are convinced that the future is digital. And with the digital printing technology offered by Koenig & Bauer, we can both accelerate product development and extend our design flexibility. For our customers, variable job volumes, longer repeat lengths and colour combinations that were previously impossible are becoming ever more important,” says Robert Bierfreund, managing director of Interprint GmbH. Barely half a year has passed since Interprint last decided to expand its digital printing capacities by installing a second RotaJET, and the company is now back again, having placed an order for its third industrial digital printing press from Koenig & Bauer. Koenig & Bauer supervisory board member Christoph Müller: “We view it as a sign of particular appreciation for our work when Koenig & Bauer is not only successful with new customers for its digital presses, but also convinces companies like Interprint, which pioneered industrial single-pass inkjet printing in the decor industry, to return to invest in another RotaJET.” More than 15 industrial single-pass digital presses from Koenig & Bauer (including HP PageWide T1190 and T1100 models), with web widths of up to 2.8m (9.2ft) and production speeds of up to 305m/min (1,000ft/min), are currently already in use or have been sold and are awaiting installation.
