Flint Group Digital Xeikon will host Xeikon Innovation Days on 9–10 June 2026 at its Global Innovation Centre in Lier, Belgium, and from 16–18 June at the Chicago Innovation Centre in Elgin, Illinois, focusing on digital label and packaging production.
The programme will include live demonstrations of Xeikon’s digital press portfolio, including the new Ecolyne and IDERA presses, alongside application showcases, customer discussions and hands-on sessions. Topics will cover AI in workflows and end-use applications, sustainability, and connected solutions in label and packaging production.
The event takes place as Xeikon operates within Flint Group Packaging Solutions, following a recent rebrand that reflects a focus on the global packaging sector across inks, coatings, consumables, services and equipment.
Walter Benz, president of Flint Group Digital Xeikon, said the event reflects the company’s direction: “With Print. Smarter. Together’, we invite the market to experience how our business is evolving: more connected to packaging, more focused on customer outcomes, and more deeply integrated within Flint Group Packaging Solutions.”
He added, “We see this as a reboot in the best sense of the word, a renewed Xeikon with sharper focus, stronger backing and a broader solutions story.”
The event will also feature partner exhibits, including CERM, Esko, Fedrigoni, Flexowash, GM, Herma, Hybrid Software, KURZ, Lake Image Systems, Meech, Schober, Scribos, RBC, Wink and Yupo.
Pepyn Dinandt, ceo of Flint Group Packaging Solutions, said: “We are seeing a market evolution across substrates, packaging formats and coatings to enhance recyclability while replacing complex structures.”
He added, “Flint Group Packaging Solutions is well-positioned to lead the way. Flint Group Digital Xeikon is an important part of that future, bringing digital capability, application expertise and innovation power into our packaging solutions platform.”
The June events are intended to demonstrate Xeikon’s role within the packaging-focused organisation and provide a forum for converters to compare platforms, explore applications and engage with technology teams.
