Jacques from INKISH interviews Ralf from a print-finishing company, Rieker Druckveredelung, at Drupa. Ralf's company, based in Stuttgart, Germany, specializes in high-end print finishes like raised effects, spot varnishes, and laminations, catering to luxury printed products. Established in 2006 and managed by the fourth and fifth generations, Rieker combines the right materials and techniques to meet client demands. Despite the rise of digital technologies, they find analog systems more cost-effective for high-volume work. They offer a wide range of coatings to enhance packaging and printed materials, helping them stand out on the shelf. LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ralph-c-rieker-83b10235/
