Founded in 1929, Barberan SA has been the leader in the design and manufacture of equipment for surface printing applications in the digital decoration, packaging and sign industries.
Barberan’s digital printing technologies are at the heart of many production factories; driving complete end-to-end production environments. Barberan customers produce industrial products on a variety of substrates such as wood, cork, plastic, ceramics and metals. Industrial production relies on accuracy, reliability and maximum uptime.
PrintFactory’s Automation workflow supports Industry 4.0 operations, enabling ‘eyes-closed’ printing processes to become a reality. PrintFactory Automation prepares, schedules, and nests production files via its Cloud servers while seamlessly reporting status, job criteria and production metrics automatically to customer’s MIS and Web2Print systems.

“This is a great partnership for us as it proves the Cloud Automation capabilities of our workflow are suitable for industrial level print production. By automating the job preparation and colour management elements of an industrial printer’s operation these factories can maximise their return on what is a considerable investment; allowing production managers to concentrate on manufacturing their products, better, faster and with minimum waste or disruption.”
Erik Strik, CEO of PrintFactory
“This collaboration means another huge step forward towards the automation of processes and workflows in industrial printing since it allows to integrate prepress and colour management tools in a single platform. As it is also a multi-user solution based on cloud connectivity, permits the printing companies to decentralize the prepress tasks and to share advanced colour resources within the customer's ecosystem”
Isaac Contreras - Barberan
