Vedreine Packaging and Dettmer Delo Verpackungen become the second and third companies in Europe to invest in Fujifilm’s flagship inkjet press for flexible packaging
Fujifilm today announces the second and third customers of the Jet Press FP790 in Europe. French-Swiss company Vedreine Packaging Group has invested in two Jet Press FP790 presses for its Switzerland facilities and Dettmer Delo Verpackuneng, based in Lohne, Germany has also invested in a Jet Press FP790.
The installations are set to take place in late 2024 and represent a strategic enhancement of each company’s commitment to providing innovative and responsive packaging solutions.
French-Swiss company, Vedreine Packaging Group, headquartered in France and renowned for its expertise in the confectionery, chocolate, dairy products, and pharmaceutical packaging sectors, has been implementing a comprehensive investment plan since 2018. “Our company prides itself on staying one step ahead, so that our customers have the peace of mind of having solutions that cater to their needs,” says Pierre Vedreine, CEO. The acquisition of two Jet Press FP790 presses underscores the company’s dedication to anticipating market needs and maintaining its competitive edge. This latest addition will be installed at Vedreine Packaging’s facility in Baar, Switzerland, which has recently been expanded.
Vincent Catala, Sales Director at Vedreine Packaging, noted, “The choice of digital printing is a strategic response to the changing market landscape. The decline in average print runs, readjusted forecasts, and dynamic marketing developments all drive us to expand our commercial offerings. Digital printing complements our traditional tools and enhances our ability to meet customer needs.”
Similarly, Dettmer Delo Verpackungen, is a prominent player in the German packaging market, offering a wide range of packaging products and services, catering to various industries including food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and more.

The company has 17 existing flexo presses on site, with the Jet Press FP790 marking their first investment into digital technology.
Ralf Wilkens, Managing Director, Dettmer Delo Verpackungen comments: “Our investment in the Jet Press FP790 marks our first venture into digital printing technology. This cutting-edge technology will enable us to better serve our customers with more flexible and efficient packaging solutions. We chose Fujifilm as a trusted partner as they are renowned for their digital technology. This investment marks a pivotal step in our journey to remain at the forefront of the packaging industry, ensuring high quality service and innovative solutions for our leading customers.”
Raynald Barillot, Category Manager, Digital Packaging, EMEA commented, “We are thrilled to see leading European companies like Vedreine Packaging and Dettmer Delo Verpackungen investing in the Jet Press FP790. This advanced technology will undoubtedly help them achieve greater efficiency and innovation in their packaging solutions.
