This industry event for digital printing, held under the motto “Connect”, perfectly captured the spirit of the times and received overwhelmingly positive feedback from attendees.
The motto “Connect” ran through all four days of the event and was particularly reflected in many of the showcased solutions. Presented across exhibitors and processes, these solutions were well received and praised for their practical relevance. Networking—always a key focus of the Hunkeler Innovationdays—also played a central role. Industry experts, decision-makers, organizations, and associations gathered once again in Lucerne to exchange ideas and insights. Numerous side events provided additional opportunities for networking.
New: GEN8 EVO for Commercial Printing
The technical highlight of the event was the new GEN8 EVO Roll to stack solution for commercial and direct mailing applications. This Hunkeler solution combines proven technology with innovative features, making it more powerful and efficient. With this EVOlution, Hunkeler meets the real demands of today’s and tomorrow’s fast-paced printing market.
The new GEN8 EVO Roll to stack solution for commercial printing was showcased as a highlight at the Hunkeler Innovationdays 2025, setting new standards in user-friendliness and production efficiency.
Complete All-in-One-Systems
When it came to connectivity, Müller Martini showcased its full potential at its booth. In collaboration with Hunkeler and the partners Heidelberg, and HP, two all-in-one solutions were presented. Visitors witnessed the fully automated production of a finished softcover book—inline from both a white roll and a white sheet—without any manual intervention. From the digital roll and sheet-fed printing machines to the cutting robot with a subsequent sorting line, the process was seamless and highly efficient.
Save the Date: 2027
The Hunkeler Innovationdays will return from February 22 to 25, 2027, in the same format. All partners and participants are once again warmly invited, and anticipation for the next edition is already high.
