The latest technical developments are constantly being incorporated into Durst products. Since 1936 Durst has been responsible for pioneering better and faster methods of large format image reproduction. The company started with analogue photo technology and later moved into digital photo laser imaging. It was one of the first to develop large format inkjet printing, initially for the graphic arts market and, most recently, it successfully extended the technology to different industrial inkjet applications.

Today, the company sees itself as an industrial inkjet specialist. Its new research building in Lienz, Austria, is evidence of its commitment to both the science of inkjet printing and its pursuit of new applications for inkjet printing. Its systems have the ability to change existing markets and provide its customers with new business opportunities. The company also makes it its duty to ensure sustainable development, providing machines that are kinder to the environment and use much less ink and energy. By optimising the performance of its printers through both physical and chemical sciences, it has succeeded in providing its customers with a competitive and profitable edge. That is why it believes that Durst is: "The industrial inkjet specialist."
