Heidelberger Druckmaschinen Aktiengesellschaft is a reliable and highly innovative partner to the global printing industry.
We have been synonymous with quality and future viability for more than 170 years. This means that we are a company with a long tradition, but at the same time we help define the future trends in our industry thanks to state-of-the-art technologies and innovative business ideas. Our mission is to shape the digital future of our industry. We also seek to open up new business areas on the basis of our technological expertise.
Our core business is oriented toward the needs of our customers in our target markets of packaging and advertising printing. We play a leading technological role with our integrated range of solutions and new digital business models. In doing so, we focus on the systematic end-to-end digitization of customer value creation, with a particular view to integrated and automated system solutions for machines, software, consumables and services. We are also using an open industry platform to connect all of the relevant systems in the printing industry.
With our technology leadership in our core business and a focus on digitization, we are addressing a global market that offers strong foundations for our products and services thanks to an annual print production volume of almost € 400 billion in packaging, advertising and label printing.
We are also addressing new markets thanks to our comprehensive technological know-how. In the e-mobility market, for example, our power electronics expertise has allowed us to establish ourselves as a leading provider of charging systems. Our printing technology has also enabled us to enter the production of printed organic electronics, a future market with great potential.
With a market share of more than 40 percent for sheetfed offset presses, we were able to consolidate our position as the printing industry’s market and technology leader in the current financial year as well. Consolidated sales amounted to € 1.9 billion in the financial year 2020/2021. Together with our sales partners, around 10,200 employees in total at 250 production sites in 170 countries around the globe ensure the implementation of our customers’ requirements and our continuous development on the market.
