The Durst Group, a manufacturer of digital printing and production technologies, is celebrating the 25th anniversary of its branch in Lienz. “Since its founding in 1999, Durst Austria GmbH is an essential part of the Durst Group, and we aim to continue growing in the coming years,” says Christoph Gamper, CEO and co-owner of the Durst Group. “Our branch in Lienz is a shining example of technological innovation and commitment to the highest quality standards.”
The 25th-anniversary celebrations include a special exhibition of group portraits and street banners by the renowned South Tyrolean artist Klaus Pobitzer. This exhibition is a continuation of the successful “Inside-Out” project previously implemented in Brixen, South Tyrol. Pobitzer’s artworks, which will be displayed both in the city of Lienz and on the premises of Durst Austria, feature large-format individual and group portraits as well as technical details of the manufactured printing systems.
“Since its founding 25 years ago, Durst Austria GmbH has developed excellently as a subsidiary of the Durst Group in the sunny city of Lienz. It is a driver of research and innovation, a hidden champion with an international orientation. In addition to its research and production activities at the site, Durst Austria has also sustainably integrated itself into the socio-political fabric,” says Elisabeth Blanik, Mayor of the city of Lienz. “The company acts as a generous supporter and continuously promotes art, culture, and social institutions in the region. As a community, we are very proud of Durst Austria’s achievements, congratulate them on this wonderful anniversary, and sincerely thank them for their outstanding social engagement. We wish them continued innovation, economic success, and a thriving economic environment for the future.”
Headquartered in Brixen, South Tyrol, the Durst Group comprises over 20 subsidiaries and joint ventures worldwide. Since its establishment, the branch in Lienz has developed into an important production site for digital inkjet printing systems. Over the years, the site has been continuously expanded and modernized. A significant milestone was the construction of the research center in the form of a “mountain crystal” in 2009, which is one of the world’s leading laboratories for inkjet printing technology.
