Xaar a global leader in industrial inkjet technology, has continued the expansion of its partnership with Jet Technologies, with the installation of a Versatex Printbar at Reflex Labels’ new greenfield site in Adelaide branded as Reflex Labelplus Australia. Already in production the site will focus on high-end label embellishment for the wine and premium drinks markets.

Xaar’s Aquinox printhead and newly enhanced fluid development process has accelerated innovation in printing onto porous wood substrates used in decorative interior applications. The project showcases how high-viscosity, water-based inks can transform cost-effective wood materials into premium, high-value décor elements for furniture, wall cladding, and other architectural design elements.

Xaar reinforced its position as a global leader in industrial inkjet technology as it unveiled its latest whitepaper and delivered two expert presentations on opposite sides of the world.

Xaar has announced its transition to 100 per cent renewable sources for all gas used in its UK commercial operations. The move will mean an estimated reduction of more than 60 per cent in the company’s Scope 1 emissions.

Xaar has enhanced its fluid development and optimisation process to help manufacturers and OEMs fast-track inkjet system development, reduce costs and drive innovation.

Xaar has launched the latest evolution of Versatex, its high-performance digital inkjet printbar. Designed to expand digital capability across a wide range of analogue print lines and converting machines, the new printbar meets the growing demand for label varnish, foil embellishment and braille. 

Our Ultra High Viscosity Technology is powering Koenig & Bauer Kammann’s latest digital decoration breakthrough, in a striking collaboration that produced 5,000 uniquely printed Johnnie Walker whisky bottles for Diageo.

EPS, part of Xaar Group, has appointed Tom Bertke as Sales Manager for the Xaar Versatex Printbar in the North American market.

With more than 30 years in capital equipment sales, including 25 years specialising in inkjet technology, Tom brings a depth of experience across the packaging, labelling and industrial print sectors. His appointment supports the continued growth of EPS, reinforcing its commitment to delivering advanced digital print solutions and hands-on technical support to converters and OEMs throughout the region.

A charity Fun Day hosted by the Totally Unstable Scooter Club at Ely Football Club on Saturday 21^st June has raised £500 for local charity, Break.

Xaar’s leading inkjet technology is enabling the production of next-generation battery coating fluids from Chinese manufacturer, Sokan New Materials Group – marking yet another partnership for Xaar in this fast-growing sector, and a clear sign of the shift away from traditional film coating methods.
