The print universe
of multichannel
& DialogMarketing

Interior/Exterior Design

Large-format presentations and customized solutions make brands visible—at trade shows, at the point of sale, and in public spaces. Displays, digital signage, and interior design create a harmonious overall picture. This themed world shows how authentic brand communication can be achieved both indoors and outdoors.

Programmatic Print

Programmatic printing combines the strengths of online and print advertising: automated, individualized communication in real time—familiar from programmatic advertising—is transferred to print media. The Programmatic Print theme world shows how this works and what added value it creates.

Label & Packaging

Customer-centric communication meets innovative materials, smart technologies, and eye-catching finishes. Whether at the point of sale or online, this theme world showcases creative solutions for all touchpoints along the customer journey.

Brand & Product

Complex content and real-time communication require new processes and digital tools. Social media, omnichannel commerce, and touchpoint communication require centralized master data systems and multichannel publishing. The Brand & Product theme world offers guidance and suitable solutions in the digital marketing systems market.

Printed Electronics

Moving ads on printed screens in magazines and labels that convey information via touchscreen. Innovative technologies enable dynamic marketing and create products with unique selling points and completely new functionalities. This is changing customer and brand communication. Take a look at today's and tomorrow's innovative solutions.

Value-added printing

Multisensory finishing turns print into a special communication experience—visual, tactile, olfactory, and interactive. It evokes emotions, increases brand awareness, and combines information with playful interaction and digital technology. The theme world showcases current ideas for added value and response in customer communication.

further processing

Attention to detail is evident in creative finishing beyond standard processes such as folding, gluing, and cutting. Perforations as patterns, elegant slipcases, or unusual leporellos make print tangible and interactive. This theme world shows how sophisticated finishing can make print products inspiring—whether in series or as individualized communications.

dialogue marketing

Dialog marketing creates direct customer contact, provides insights into needs, and increases business success. Personalization strengthens loyalty, but requires more communication. Software-supported, cross-channel solutions enable efficient data usage. This topic area presents successful strategies for credible communication and deeper customer relationships.

Sustainable media production

Climate protection, the circular economy, and recycling require comprehensive education in the communications industry and among customers. Sustainability offers double added value: companies strengthen their communication with customers and investors and also achieve production and cost advantages through efficient processes and resource conservation.

software

Software provides digital tools for graphic design, automates processes, and ensures systematic quality management. It makes creative work scalable, processes efficient, and quality measurable. Without software, industrial print production would not be possible and marketing automation would be unthinkable.

Financing Insurance

Financing solutions such as leasing or hire purchase, special insurance policies for printing and media companies, credit insurance, credit reports, and company pension schemes. The Insurance Financing section highlights the wide range of options available to printing and media companies.
