With 30 years of innovation in digital printing under its belt, Xeikon achieved multiple firsts last year, extending its product lines and the markets it serves. In a press and analyst briefing held on Thursday, Jan. 10, key Xeikon executives and customers detailed the company's 2018 growth and offered projections for the year ahead. Since its inception, Xeikon's foundation has been in electrophotographic digital printing. But as Filip Weymans, Xeikon's VP of marketing, noted, 2018 marked the first year Xeikon sold UV inkjet systems into the market. Xeikon first announced its foray into the inkjet arena with the introduction of its Panther platform in 2017, which consists of the PX2000 and PX3000 models for the label segment. However, Xeikon then expanded its footprint further into inkjet when it partnered with EFI at the end of 2017 to take on the service, support and sales functions of the Tetrion inkjet label press platform.
