Additionally, Heidelberg and Fujifilm have started a joint project to develop a new industrialised inkjet-based digital printing system for use in the commercial and packaging printing sector.
Heidelberg CEO Gerold Linzbach said: "Our ability to offer integrated offset and digital solutions for a range of market segments is unique in the industry. This reflects our drive to remain the partner of choice in this sector moving into the future."
