Xeikon opens Asia Innovation Center in China

The new center in Shanghai is one of Xeikon‘s four innovation centers worldwide. The others are located in the company’s headquarters in Belgium, Chicago in the US and Tokyo, Japan.

‘This new Asia Innovation Center, which took 16 days from the beginning of preparation, site selection, decoration, equipment commissioning to the opening event, truly illustrates the “speed of digital people”,’ said Sean Wu, general manager for Greater China at Xeikon. ‘Asia is a very important growth market for digital printing, especially China, with the increasing demand for diverse, variable products and short-delivery times. 

‘The opening is an important step for Xeikon to provide a faster response and further optimize service for customers. In the future, we plan to host our brand events such as Xeikon Cafe here and share the possibilities of digital printing with industry colleagues.’

Lina Gu, general manager for China and Southeast Asia at Flint Group, added: ‘Xeikon is one of the flagship brands of Flint Group. We will make full use of global advantages and provide customers with more localized and personalized technology and services.’

In 2021, Flint also set up a new accessory warehouse in China, aiming to improve delivery times and quality of after-sales service. 

‘In 2022, we plan to showcase Xeikon UV inkjet digital printing equipment here. Moreover, we will also deliver professional training, testing, and technical support services to customers,’ concluded Wu.
