Koenig & Bauer announced its appearance at drupa 2024 in Düsseldorf through June 7 where it is presenting its product portfolio and numerous digital innovations for print production and post-press finishing. The company focused on solutions for the packaging market – not only machinery, but also digital products.
The central point of contact for access to the comprehensive suite of digital products is the myKyana portal, which enables seamless interaction with all digital offers.
