Gallus Group, a subsidiary of HEIDELBERG, reports that 2024 was a pivotal year for the company – with its latest innovations now equipping label businesses market-wide to unlock critical efficiencies for greater profitability. Reflecting on new technology launches including the System to Compose modularity concept for the Gallus One, as well as Gallus MatteJet technology, poised to unlock digital printing for the wine and spirits market, Gallus has continued to push the industry forward towards a smart, connected and successful print future.
“Our ongoing innovation efforts in this strategic growth segment are continuing to deliver transformative solutions to market and creating a meaningful real-world impact,” comments Dario Urbinati, CEO, Gallus Group.
Beyond the Gallus One and the addition of the System to Compose concept that has stimulated industry-wide interest, Gallus also achieved a research breakthrough in 2024 with the announcement of Gallus MatteJet, which brings the possibilities of digital inkjet to the wine and spirits label market. Unlocking inline, cost-effective matte finishing, MatteJet addresses a key challenge that has historically restricted the growth of digital inkjet technology. The technology paves the way for customers to serve the premium label market, where sophisticated matte labels are crucial to many brands, without the need for external finishing processes or separate conventional machines.
“Alongside our parent company, HEIDELBERG, we had a successful 2024,” continues Urbinati. “Through its unique operational agility and flexibility to tackle evolving challenges, our System to Compose concept has really connected with customers, providing them an all-important confidence in meeting the changing industry dynamics. drupa also saw us showcase important new developments such as the newest evolution of the Gallus One, offering a wider print width of 430 mm and expanded colour gamut for superior colour fidelity.”
According to Urbinati, Gallus’ developments over the past year align perfectly with its ongoing commitment to spearheading market transformation. These efforts are bolstered by its cooperation with parent company HEIDELBERG, a total solution provider for the printing industry, with the full portfolio underpinned by a common Prinect workflow.
“As adoption of our technologies accelerates, we look forward to not only advancing these existing solutions but sharing all-new strategic pipeline developments designed to address important gaps in the market and continue breaking down barriers to customer profitability and growth. We expect 2025 to be another important year in driving our industry forward.”
