Siegwerk, a supplier of printing inks and coatings for packaging applications and labels, is advancing its long-term growth strategy “Formula 2030” with an increased investment program. In 2025, the company more than doubled its usual annual investment volume to expand its global presence, enhance technical capabilities and optimize processes through automation and digitalization. Over the next five years, Siegwerk plans to invest more than 300 million Euros in organic growth and operational efficiency, supported by targeted M&A activities, to strengthen its competitiveness and create greater value for customers.
“Every investment we make is guided by a clear objective: helping our customers and partners excel,” said Nicolas Wiedmann, CEO at Siegwerk. “Whether we expand capacity, automate production, strengthen technical expertise or invest in digitalization, we aim to deliver greater speed, higher quality, reliable supply, improved efficiency and stronger local support.”
Key Investments
A key investment in 2025 was the acquisition of Allinova, a specialist in functional coatings. Siegwerk is also building new capacities in India to support the growth of Allinova-developed functional coatings in Asia.
In parallel, Siegwerk continued to strengthen its regional footprint to provide closer customer support. The opening of a new site in Dubai expanded the company’s presence in the Middle East, while the acquisition of additional land in Indonesia paved the way for future capacity expansion.
Another milestone was the groundbreaking for the reconstruction and expansion of Siegwerk’s production site in Bhiwadi, India. Once completed, the site will offer greater capacity, increased efficiency through automation and become the company’s largest Center of Excellence worldwide.
Siegwerk also modernized its global production and technology infrastructure in 2025. Investments included new inline white production facilities in Germany and the United States, warehouse extensions and major global IT projects, including new platforms for customer relationship management (CRM) and product lifecycle management (PLM).
Siegwerk’s investment momentum continued into 2026 with the acquisition of Hi-Tech Inks in March, strengthening the company’s position in India’s fast-growing flexible packaging segment. By combining manufacturing footprints and product portfolios, the two entities now reportedly command more than 20 percent of the Indian flexible packaging inks market.
