NEUWIED, GERMANY | Winkler+Dünnebier (W+D), a Barry-Wehmiller company, is strengthening its position as a long-term technology and service-solutions partner for the envelope and printed mail market with the acquisition of Halm Industries, a manufacturer of offset and digital printing presses. Halm has locations in Glen Head, NY, and Warmond, Netherlands.
“Halm’s new four-color digital inkjet envelope overprinting press, designed to meet customers’ rapidly growing demand for personalization and short-run envelope overprinting production, will be a perfect complement to W+D’s short-run, highly flexible and easy-to-use line of envelope converting, inserting, and printing solutions,” says Frank Eichhorn, managing director of W+D. “We are eager to globalize this new product’s very successful North American introduction. Plus, W+D will assume the service for the installed base of all Halm machines, with the support of key team members in the US and in Warmond, Netherlands.”
