Koenig & Bauer Durst is entering a new phase in the VariJET 106 journey as beta and series machines deliver exceptional performance in daily production across Europe.

Two beta presses in Switzerland and Germany and a first series machine are now in continuous operation. Every month, they produce hundreds of thousands of high-quality folding cartons for a wide variety of sectors, including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, industrial goods, food packaging, and tobacco.

Successful Installations and Expansion into Poland

A major milestone is also underway in Poland, where a new VariJET 106 is currently being installed – further information following soon!

Efficiency Gains Driven by Digital Technology

Based on an in-depth analysis of the customer’s real production data, Koenig & Bauer Durst identified striking efficiency improvements: significant cost and waste reductions, increasing overall press room efficiency, lower energy use, and new business potential through the possibilities of digital technology such as versioning and variable data printing.

The findings underline the approach of partnering with customers to develop individual solutions that transform their operations, rather than simply supplying technology.

Close Customer Collaboration as a Key Success Factor

“Every installation is a close collaboration,” says Tom Sander, Product Manager for the VariJET 106. “By analysing individual customer data, production conditions, and needs, we make sure each VariJET 106 unlocks measurable improvements – in cost, time, and sustainability – and changes their business. The strong feedback from our beta users and the enthusiasm we see at live events confirm that the VariJET 106 is delivering on its promise.”

Growing Demand and International Events

Koenig & Bauer Durst continues to expand VariJET 106 customer events throughout 2026, reflecting the growing global demand for digital printing in the folding carton market.

Live Demonstrations and Open House in Radebeul

Over the coming weeks, several groups of international visitors will experience the VariJET 106 live at customer sites. Some of them will then travel to the Open House in Radebeul on April 28, where the VariJET will once again be the centerpiece of live demonstrations.
