Contiweb will participate as a sponsor of the Inkjet Summit 2026, one of the printing industry’s most exclusive events dedicated to production inkjet technologies. The summit will take place April 27–29, 2026, at the Hyatt Regency Hill Country Resort in San Antonio, Texas, bringing together senior executives, technology providers and industry experts to explore the future of inkjet production.
The Inkjet Summit is an invitation-only event designed for senior decision-makers who want to better understand how current and emerging production inkjet technologies, software and solutions can influence their business strategies and investment decisions. The event combines keynote presentations, panel discussions, boardroom sessions and networking opportunities in a focused environment for knowledge sharing and collaboration.
Contiweb representation
At the summit, Contiweb will be represented by Christy Atkinson and Sean Springett, who will meet with print service providers and industry peers to discuss ways to improve productivity and process stability in modern inkjet production environments.
Discussions will focus on solutions that support reliable high-speed production, including non-stop unwinding and rewinding, which enable continuous operation during roll changes. The conversations will also cover fluid application, which helps stabilize the web by controlling moisture levels and enables the controlled application of functional fluids—such as silicone oils or antistatic agents—in high-speed inkjet production.
Boardroom presentation: maximizing production efficiency
As part of the program, Contiweb will host a boardroom presentation focusing on how printers can maximize production efficiency in roll-to-roll and roll-to-finish inkjet environments.
The session will highlight the role of Contiweb non-stop unwinding and rewinding technologies in maintaining continuous production flow and eliminating unnecessary downtime during roll changes. By enabling automatic reel changes without stopping the press, these solutions help printers increase overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), improve operator efficiency and maintain stable production speeds.
For high-volume inkjet printing operations—such as book manufacturing, direct mail, commercial print and transactional print—continuous material handling is a key factor in achieving optimal productivity. Contiweb’s technologies are designed to support these demanding production environments by ensuring uninterrupted web transport and efficient integration with downstream finishing processes.
Connecting with industry leaders
Beyond the boardroom session, the Inkjet Summit provides opportunities for in-depth conversations through scheduled meetings, networking events and peer-to-peer discussions. The format allows attendees to exchange real-world experiences and explore practical strategies for adopting and scaling inkjet production technologies.
Christy Atkinson and Sean Springett look forward to meeting print leaders and discussing how Contiweb solutions can help printers increase uptime and unlock the full productivity potential of production inkjet systems.
