Gallus Group, a subsidiary of Heidelberg, has revealed the installations of its Gallus One digital label press at label producers in both the Czech Republic and Hungary. The two companies have seen significant success within just a few months of installation, said Dario Urbinati, CEO of Gallus Group.
Czech company Flexon installed the Gallus One in November 2024. Already printing commercial jobs within the operator training period, the company claims to have installed the digital label press – which it chose with an additional flexo unit and a semi-rotary die cutting module – to accelerate job changeover times for increasingly shorter label runs.

Dávid Péter, owner of Yeloprint, commented, ‘the Gallus One was Yeloprint’s obvious choice’
Martin Chaluš, owner of Flexon, said the new press has replaced two of its conventional presses. It has allowed the company to adapt to the shorter orders and frequent changes in artwork which it has experienced. Mr Chaluš added that anyone who wants to stay in the label market will need an appropriate combination of both digital and conventional technologies.
Yeloprint of Szombathely, Hungary, installed a Gallus One in October 2024, also including two flexo units and a semi-rotary die-cutting unit. The company was looking to diversify its technology offering to provide faster, short and medium-length label jobs. The press, which according to Gallus offers one of the lowest TCOs on the market, was the correct match for the company also providing the speed and print quality it was looking for.
Owner of Yeloprint Dávid Péter, said the company needed additional capabilities to meet changing customer expectations for shorter runs, but didn’t want to invest in a large flexo machine, claiming a digital press was the next logical step. He stated that the speed, quality, and the web transport system of the press was critical to the company’s decision. He expects a return on investment within two to three years.
