Flint Group Digital Xeikon Innovation Days Returns

Flint Group Digital Xeikon announced the return of Xeikon Innovation Days, taking place 9–10 June 2026 at its Global Innovation Center in Lier, Belgium, and on 16-18 June at the Chicago Innovation Center in Elgin, Illinois. 

Under the umbrella theme “Print. Smarter. Together.”, the event will bring together customers, prospects, and partners for an extensive program of live demos, customer conversations, application showcases, and hands-on experiences designed to accelerate decision-making in digital label and packaging production.

This year’s edition will also serve as a visible expression of a broader transformation: Xeikon’s evolution into Flint Group Digital Xeikon, a core digital business within the newly rebranded Flint Group Packaging Solutions.

“Xeikon Innovation Days 2026 is more than an event announcement; it’s a statement of intent,” said Walter Benz, President Flint Group Digital Xeikon. “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. 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 program will combine strategic content with operational relevance, featuring conference sessions, customer-centric discussions, partner contributions, and live demos of Xeikon’s digital press portfolio, including the brand-new Ecolyne and IDERA presses. 

Key topics will include: 

• AI in workflows and end-use applications
• New growth paths for digital printing
• Customer-driven innovation
• Sustainability
• The practical role of connected solutions in modern label and packaging production

A list of industrial partners has signed up to exhibit during the events including: CERM, Esko, Fedrigoni, Flexowash, GM, Herma, Hybrid Software, KURZ, Lake Image Systems, Meech, Schober, Scribos, RBC, Wink, Yupo.

The announcement follows Flint Group’s recent rebrand to Flint Group Packaging Solutions, reflecting the company’s focus on the global packaging sector and its commitment to delivering integrated, sustainable, and future-ready solutions across inks, coatings, consumables, services, and equipment. 

Within this renewed structure, Flint Group Digital Xeikon plays a critical role in helping packaging and label converters capture new opportunities through digital print technologies, digital consumables, and connected solution ecosystems.

For Flint Group Digital Xeikon, the June event aims to reaffirm its longstanding role as a digital technology innovator and introduce the market to its renewed role within a broader, packaging-focused organization.

 Together, these messages signal that the company is entering a new phase, one defined by stronger alignment with packaging, greater ecosystem relevance, and a clearer value proposition for converters looking to grow with confidence.
