Sometimes a great story begins quietly. In 1936, two brothers laid the foundation in a small workshop in Brixen, South Tyrol, for what is today the Durst Group. It was not an industrial corporation or a global brand – it was an idea: the ambition to do things better. More precise. More consistent. More forward-looking. 90 years later, that photo workshop has evolved into a globally leading manufacturer of industrial digital printing and additive manufacturing systems. Durst stands for technological excellence, for ‘Made in Durst’ quality – defined by deep in-house development expertise, precision and an uncompromising commitment to performance – as well as entrepreneurial independence and long-term thinking. Machines became systems. Products became integrated production intelligence. Hardware evolved into a holistic understanding of digital value creation. Standing still has never been part of the Durst story.
At Durst, innovation is neither a trend nor a project. It is part of the company’s DNA. Each generation has reimagined and advanced the business – from analog photography to industrial digitalization and fully networked production environments. Today, Durst once again stands at a pivotal moment. The next evolutionary step is called Kyveris – The AI-Powered Intelligence for Digital Production. Kyveris transforms digital printing and additive manufacturing by unifying files, machines, software, data, and AI into a single, autonomous production system that continuously learns, optimizes performance, reduces waste, and drives efficiency at scale. Durst celebrates 90 years of innovation – while shaping the future of digital production.
