Durst Group collaborates with Aleph for new centre for textile printing

Durst Group, a leading manufacturer of digital printing and production technologies, is setting another milestone in the digital textile industry: the merger with Aleph SrL is entering its final phase. With legal completion expected by the end of 2025, Aleph will be fully integrated into the Durst Group, and Durst Como will emerge as a new center of excellence for digital textile printing. Product management will be centralized under the leadership of Andrea Riccardi, Head of Product Management Graphics & Textile at the Durst Group, to ensure a clear strategic direction and seamless integration of all technologies.

An initial result of the merger between the Durst Group and Aleph will be showcased by the Durst Group at FESPA 2025 in Berlin, featuring the new Durst LF Series Graphics. These printing systems, developed further from the Aleph Laforte platform for indoor and outdoor applications using water-based inks, enable both high-speed sublimation printing on paper and direct printing on polyester fabrics with sublimation ink. Key features of these advancements include the sticky-belt transport system for textile materials and the patented vacuum-belt transport system for paper media, both ensuring top precision and quality.
