ANI and BASF merger launches new name

The new name for the merged ANI Printing Inks and BASF Printing Systems is XSYS Print Solutions (pronounced as Ex-syss). The company says that it was seeking a name that would be memorable and individual, whilst also able to express its numerous possibilities and specialist knowledge.

The “X“ stands for the company’s extensive product range, new developments, possibilities for customers and opportunities for employees. The “SYS” means systems.

“I am convinced that XSYS Print Solutions will establish itself as a new dimension of the printing and packaging industry, a name recognised by everyone, says Peter Koivula, CEO XSYS Print Solutions.
