10 Years Anniversary of swissQprint

Sticking to its focus on high-quality inkjet flatbed systems, swissQprint has successively built up and strengthened its position in this segment. Today, the company has completed a decade of presence in the industry and it has recently celebrated its milestone ’10 Years Anniversary’. swissQprint now operates in 40 countries, owns three subsidiaries and counts 110 employees. The name swissQprint surfaced out of nowhere 10 years ago. Today, the brand is a byword for digital printing systems boasting high quality, huge versatility and Swiss reliability. Reto Eicher, Hansjörg Untersander and Roland Fetting laid the foundation for this success story in September 2007. A decade later in 2017, there are now 75 people working at the head office and production base in Switzerland, and 35 spread across three subsidiaries. In addition, there are sales and service partners representing swissQprint in close to 40 countries around the globe.

From the outset, swissQprint has focused exclusively on UV flatbed printers with modular design. Modularity makes the base machine configurable and extensible according to customer needs. Oryx was the first model to reach the market, celebrating its première on the margins of the drupe 2008. Just two years later the company surprised the market with Impala, the printer that broke every then-prevailing speed record in its class. Nyala, the largest model built until that date, made its début at drupa 2012. Another two years on, swissQprint launched a new generation of printers in the shape of the Nyala 2. In early 2017, swissQprint brought to market the efficiency-enhancing 4×4 versions of Impala 2 and Nyala 2. Impala LED and Nyala LED, which cure UV inks using LED technology, premièred at Fespa 2017.
