SCREEN: A Timeline of Printing Success
SCREEN’s journey began with its incorporation as Dainippon Screen Mfg. Co., Ltd. in 1943, though its origins date back even further to Akira Ishida, establishing a copper plate and lithographic printing shop in Kyoto, Ishida Kyokuzan Printing Works, in 1868.
Over the decades, SCREEN has become a leader in print by continuously leveraging our core expertise in pre-press solutions and as a core pioneer guiding the ongoing development of digital inkjet printing technology.
The Future of Print
Our drive to advancing inkjet technology remains central to SCREEN Europe’s mission with our team’s deep understanding of the printing industry and its evolving needs enabling us to push the boundaries of digital printing, delivering industry-leading solutions that offer both reliability and productivity in an increasingly competitive and rapidly consolidating market.
A People-First Approach to Success
SCREEN Europe’s growth has been shaped by its people-first philosophy. Many employees have spent over 25 years with the company, developing their skills alongside evolving technologies.
This stability has ensured a consistent level of expertise and strong, long-term relationships with clients and partners.
Adapting to a Changing Market
As the printing industry evolves, we remained a leader in adapting to market shifts. While demand in certain sectors has slowed, areas like packaging, labels, and book printing have seen renewed interest, and our digital printing solutions are ideally suited to meet the growing need for personalised and customised packaging with variable data printing capabilities (VDP).
A Commitment to Innovation
Looking ahead, we are confident in the future of the European printing industry and the enduring value of print in today’s world, reflected in the investment in our state-of-the-art Inkjet Innovations Centre (IIC) at our new headquarters. As we move forward, we will continue focusing on sustainability improvements, integrating new developments in automation, and adapting to evolving regulations and market demands to ensure our solutions meet the requirements of tomorrow.
