Heidelberg Expands Pressroom Chemicals Portfolio by Acquiring Belgium-Based BluePrint Products NV

Purchasing BluePrint is a further logical step in expanding the Heidelberg consumables portfolio following the acquisition of U.K. coating manufacturer Hi-Tech Coatings in 2008. Heidelberg intends to systematically increase sales of consumables in the future. “We’re looking to become the world’s leading supplier of consumables in our industry in the medium term,” explained Weimer.
