Comexi gears up for Labelexpo Europe 2025

Comexi has confirmed its participation at Labelexpo Europe 2025, taking place from September 16 to 19 in Barcelona. From booth 5G73, the company will unveil its key innovations, including Comexi D4, Digiflex, and Comexi F4 Origin. The company claims to be the only company in the sector to offer flexible packaging printing and label printing in digital, offset, and flexography, tailoring its technologies to each customer's specific needs.

The new Comexi D4 digital press is suitable for short runs and fully customized designs, eliminating the need for plates and enabling real-time design changes, which drastically reduces the time to market. Its versatility redefines label production for brands that demand immediacy and differentiation.

Comexi's another key innovation is the Digiflex digital press, specializing in variable code printing for critical applications such as traceability, brand protection, and advanced personalization with QR or data matrix codes. It is a strategic tool for brands seeking smart, secure consumer engagement.

Comexi also reinforces its leadership in central drum offset printing with the Comexi CI Offset evolution—a perfect equipment for multiple SKUs and short runs that combines
quality with a strong environmental commitment. The technology reduces solvent use and minimizes emissions, providing a sustainable alternative for an increasingly demanding market.

In the field of slitting, Comexi will showcase its turret slitter rewinders, the S1DT and S2DT, which are capable of slitting reels measuring 30 mm and integrating with fully automated end-of-line systems.  These machines maximize productivity and meet the growing need for efficiency and precision in label converting.

Innovation continues with the premiere of the Comexi F4 Origin, the fourth generation of of the printer that was originally introduced in 2010. Since then, Comexi has sold over 100 units of the F4 in its previous three versions, cementing its place as one of the most successful compact presses on the market. This new version maintains the essence of its predecessors—compact format, agility, and versatility—but takes a qualitative leap in performance, efficiency, and sustainability.

Designed for flexible small-format productions, the new F4 Origin now reaches speeds of up to 400 m/min and a maximum width of 1,120 mm, with a fully reinforced mechanical structure. It incorporates the GeniusRun system to eliminate bouncing, ensuring high quality print even at minimum formats of 240 mm.

Additionally, the GeniusDry drying system has been optimized to work with both solvent-based and water-based inks, further supporting sustainability. This redesigned system also brings major energy efficiency improvements by minimizing temperature loss and optimizing airflow between colors to reduce circulating air volume.

In line with Comexi’s more advanced models such as the F2 Origin and F1 Evolution, the F4 Origin integrates the control console into the machine, reducing the footprint and improving usability. The upper walkway and access points have also been completely redesigned, significantly enhancing ergonomics, making it easier for operators to access the drying tunnel, central drum, video system, and threading, while also facilitating maintenance.

This new generation is suitable for short-run flexible packaging as well as for the label sector, whose production needs often align with flexographic technologies. Its 240 mm minimum format enables jobs to be printed without duplicating plates, and its compact size makes it a perfect choice for label printers looking to expand into flexible packaging. With this machine, it's possible to transition from printing a label for a glass or PET bottle to formats such as recyclable monomaterial stand-up pouches, opening up new market
opportunities for brands focused on sustainability and diversification.
