Drupa was the official launching place of Heidelberg's new global
consumable brand Saphira.
Every piece of equipment requiring consumables was running
the Saphira brand showing case the range to thousands of customers
visiting the Heidelberg halls and sending a strong message that
company is taking the consumable business seriously. The message is
a clear long term commitment to providing quality products at
competitive prices under the Saphira name.
Three Saphira Performance Kits were also launched at Drupa.
They are specifically designed for special Heidelberg technologies
and applications, with all consumables interacting optimally with
one another and the equipment.

- Saphira Performance Kit Perfecting Coating Solution -

drupa was also an important expo for environmental topics. Life
size Reindeer models placed around our drupa halls became a talking
point and drew attention to Heidelberg's eco credentials and
solutions. Not only do we hold ISO140001 certification for
sustainable manufacturing but our demonstration centre recently
obtained Forest Stewardship Council (F SC) certification. Hence
environmental considerations are an important part of the
selection criteria for Saphira consumables.
