Flint Group has announced the appointment of Robert Welford as president for Xeikon, its digital division. Stepping up from his current position as Vice President of Research & Development, he will now lead Xeikon through the next phase of success, reaffirming its deep commitment to bringing the latest innovations in digital printing to customers across the globe.

Welford joined Xeikon in September 2018 when he took over the management of Research & Development, with a broad remit overlooking the engineering operations, the ink and toner competence centers, and the print process and project management office. As the new President, he will further leverage these competencies and his solid background in the printing industry, as the company accelerates the industrialization of its broad product line and continued integration with Flint Group.
