Proud Winner of the Pinnacle Award

We are honored to receive the Pinnacle Award, recognizing our commitment to excellence, innovation, and outstanding performance. This achievement reflects the dedication of our team and the trust of our partners and customers.

High-Speed Inkjet raised the bar for performance.

Faster production.
Greater efficiency.
Industrial-level photo production.

Now it’s time to raise the bar for quality.

Because speed alone does not create differentiation.

Visible, tangible photo quality does.

What if High-Speed Inkjet could 
deliver both?

Industrial performance.
And real photographic depth.

Full press speed.
And authentic photo feel.

A streamlined workflow.
And premium differentiation.

That is the next step for High-Speed Inkjet.

Why High-Speed Inkjet needs real photo quality

High-Speed Inkjet has transformed industrial photo production. It enables speed, flexibility and scalable output for personalized print products. But for premium photo applications, productivity alone is not enough.

Customers expect images that feel valuable, surfaces that feel familiar and results that create emotional impact. Until now, this often meant accepting additional process steps such as lamination or varnishing to create a photo-like appearance.

The question is no longer whether High-Speed Inkjet can be fast. The real question is: can it deliver the speed of industrial production and the emotional quality of real photography at the same time?
