Despite the COVID-19 global situation, we are happy to announce that ACTEGA Metal Print has installed its first EcoLeaf Beta unit at Kolbe-Coloco - a German printer based in Versmold and only 1.5-hours drive from our company location in Lehrte. Kolbe-Coloco is part of the 550 people Hamburg based printing group, H.O.PERSIEHL.
Q3/2019 - LabelExpo
Labelexpo is coming close and we would like to present you the latest achievements in the development of our technology. We are especially proud to announce that we found a way to create tinted trigger images that enable the imaging of a vast variety of colored shiny embellishments. You will also learn more about how different printing methods for creating trigger images result in different appearances of the metallic effects. Finally, you will get the chance to get in touch with our beta program which is scheduled for Q1/2020.
Q1/2019 - Making 2019 a Landmark Year
After we made significant progress with our technology and learned about the market needs last year, we are looking forward to 2019, where our key challenge is to define the first EcoLeaf product and get it ready for market. We present our new CSMO Dario Urbinati by asking him five key questions. Jan Franz Allerkamp reports on his visit at A B Graphic International in England.

Q3/2018 - Finding the Right Match
We are looking for the right strategic partners that operate in market segments where a large utilization of metallic embellishment can be seen to justify the investment in our technology. Therefore Jan Franz Allerkamp explains how we analyze different market segments with regards to the use of metallization.
