CHRONICLE
FROM
TWO-MAN OPERATION
TO GLOBAL PLAYER
Wiedenbach Apparatebau GmbH was founded in 1983 as
a two-man operation in a garage. From then on inkjet
printers have been developed, constructed and produced
autonomously. The company has been growing fast and
shortly after the first inkjet printers from Lake Constance
- made in Germany - were exported worldwide. A sales
and service network has been established globally.
In 2004 Wiedenbach was acquired by Domino Printing
Sciences plc. Since then Wiedenbach has been part of
the Domino Group but is still operating with its own
trademark - being the specialist for complex marking
applications in the inkjet sector as well as automated
product marking and coding solutions within the
corporate group.
The worldwide sales and service network is still being
extended.
25 years of experience in the field of non-contact
marking are also being reflected in Wiedenbach’s inkjet
printers.

Systems has always the best solution for your coding
needs.
