Gallus Experience Center (GEC)

Center of Excellence and Test Lab

The Gallus Experience Center in St. Gallen is dedicated to smart, connected printing and the digital transformation of the label and narrow-web printing industry, with the goal of driving the industry’s future success by fostering collaboration and innovation.

Across nearly 2,500 square meters of floor space, Gallus’s label printing experts operate and showcase Gallus’s conventional and digital label printing presses, equipped with state-of-the-art technology. Nearly all printing and finishing processes used in label and packaging printing can be demonstrated here.

However, this industry gathering not only showcases Gallus's solutions but also highlights numerous partners who are presenting their machines and solutions at the center.

If you are interested in a live demonstration of one of the Gallus label printing presses, please contact your local Heidelberg Sales and Service Unit.
