Fujifilm has announced that Fink Group has recently made significant investments in both toner and inkjet Fujifilm digital print technology, with recent installations of the Jet Press 750S High Speed Model (HSM) and Revoria Press PC1120.
Founded in 1959, Fink Group has grown into a leading printing company based in Pfullingen, Germany. With 56 employees onsite and over 200 employees in Baden-Württemberg, the company is renowned for its diverse range of high quality printing services. Fink Group produces magazines, brochures, folding cartons, packaging for food, mailings, postcards, business cards and calendars. Additionally, they produce a weekly newspaper, handmade leather notebooks and vibrant calendars.
The Jet Press 750S HSM was installed in March 2024 and has already transformed Fink Group’s production capabilities. Known for its ultra-high print quality and remarkable efficiency, the Jet Press has set new benchmarks in digital printing. “The Jet Press has enabled us to produce shorter runs with superior quality compared to both digital and offset presses,” said Martin Fink, CEO of Fink Group. “The prints are free from artefacts, stripes and cloudy colour fields, ensuring our products meet the highest standards.”
Fink Group’s investment in the Jet Press 750S HSM aligns with its longstanding commitment to sustainability. The water-based inks used in the Jet Press are free from hazardous materials, promoting a safer work environment and more eco-friendly production. Additionally, the machine’s innovative design allows Fink Group to repurpose warm air from the printing process to heat other production areas, maximising energy efficiency.
“The water-based inks in the Jet Press 750S HSM are not only better for the environment, but they also ensure the safety of our employees,” Martin Fink added. “This investment reflects our dedication to sustainability and responsible production practices.”
Fink Group is dedicated to sustainable practices, sourcing materials locally within a 100km radius and aiming to produce compostable print products. This commitment is further reinforced using water-based inks in the Jet Press, which are safer for the environment and employees.
Complementing the Jet Press 750S HSM, Fink Group’s investment in the Revoria Press PC1120 will enhance Fink Group’s flexibility with features like white, gold and silver printing capabilities, along with long banner and small format options. Together, these presses will streamline workflows and offer unparalleled print quality, enabling Fink Group to cater to diverse market demands.
The new printing solutions have also opened doors to new markets, attracting clients from various industries including fashion, automotive, photography, and art galleries. "The stunning print quality has helped us secure new customers with high expectations, such as media agencies and fashion designers," noted Martin Fink. "The Jet Press allows us to deliver unparalleled detail and colour accuracy, setting us apart from competitors."
As a family-owned business in its third generation, Fink Group continues to prioritise social responsibility and sustainability. "My grandfather established this business with a focus on weekly newspapers, my father expanded it to B2B, and now I am steering it towards sustainability and high quality printing," said Martin Fink. "Our investments reflect our dedication to creating a healthier and more human business for future generations."
Close and attentive support from Fujifilm ensured swift installation and integration of both machines. “The Fujifilm team worked seamlessly to ensure the installation was completed. I never thought that in such a small timeline Fujifilm could act so fast and do such an excellent job,” Fink added. “Their dedication and efficiency have been nothing short of amazing.”
Taro Aoki, Head of Digital Press Solutions at Fujifilm, commented, "We are thrilled to partner with Fink Group and support their journey towards high quality and sustainable printing. The Jet Press 750S HSM is designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern print businesses, and we are confident it will help Fink Group achieve their ambitious goals. With the installation of the Revoria Press PC1120 as well, we look forward to a longstanding partnership."
