Waregem, Belgium – 16 December, 2021
In today’s highly competitive global market, the need to reduce inventory costs, to implement just-in-time manufacturing, to meet consumer demands and many other challenges has motivated the development of new digital solutions. Barberan’s advanced digital printing and texturing lines combined with Unilin Technologies’ strong patent portfolio in this field are now delivering the ideal, comprehensive technical solution for decorative rigid board manufacturers.
“We believe the time was right to join forces with Unilin Technologies. Their early and continued research into this technology resulted in the first and most relevant IP relating to digital printing and texturing. They are a powerful ally and therefore ideally placed to license this technology into the decorative board market,” says Eladio Lerga at Barberan.
Jasmine Geerinckx, Unilin Technologies’ Business Development Director stated, “We’re very pleased to partner with Barberan, a leader in innovative industrial solutions for surface finishing and specialized single-pass printing and texturing lines for decorative rigid board production.” She added, “It’s also good to see that their successful implementation of our partner ZEETREE’s texturing technologies further enhances our cooperation with Barberan, and we look forward to welcoming other companies with relevant IP and technology into our cooperative partnership model.”
