Gallus Invests in the Future with a Stronger Digital Team

ST. GALLEN, SWITZERLAND—December 11, 2014—Gallus has a positive view of the future. The Gallus DCS 340 digital label printing machine introduced at the Gallus Innovation Days is set to become a sales hit. Company management has decided to reinforce the team responsible for this digital converting system, recruiting specialist and management staff with expertise in digital printing.

The management team at Gallus is aware that there is much more to market success than an outstanding printing press system. The Swiss company is showing how seriously it is taking its entry into digital printing technology by recruiting new marketing, sales and service staff. What started with a truly amazing achievement in the Gallus and Heidelberg development departments—developing a fully functional digital printing system in the space of just twelve months—is now to be continued with the same intensity. “The digital world moves much faster than the conventional one. To ensure that we live up to our goal of ‘success and security for the label printer’ in digital label printing, too, we are going to boost both our staff and our expertise in this area,” explains Stefan Heiniger, COO of the Labels Division at Gallus. “We will ensure that our customers can operate the Gallus DCS 340 profitably and can open up new business potential using this press."

Gallus already maintains a virtually global service network for conventional label printing. A joint service network for digital printing is also being built up with Heidelberger Druckmachinen AG. “Thanks to our outstanding link-up with Heidelberg, the comprehensive, high-performance service our customers expect from us will already be in place in time for the market launch at Labelexpo in September 2015,” says Christof Naier, head of sales and marketing at Gallus.
