GelatoConnect workflow is being implemented within five new print providers
PressUp in Italy, JVNZ in Australia and New Zealand, Oschatz Visuelle Medien in Germany, Exakta in Sweden, and ESP Colour in the UK have all invested in GelatoConnect workflow.
The platform integrates materials ordering and tracking, pre-press, printing, post-press, and packaging tasks into a single system. This means that over time, all existing workflow solutions within these print providers’ facilities will be replaced with GelatoConnect.
A machine-and-product agnostic workflow software for the print industry, GelatoConnect is ideal for printers with short print runs that are highly personalised and are often received directly from e-commerce – reflecting the evolution of print in recent years.
According to a McKinsey study, GelatoConnect can increase profit margins by up to seven percentage points when combined with GelatoConnect Procurement and Logistics module.

Vincenzo Cirimele, chief executive officer of PressUp, comments: “GelatoConnect is revolutionising the print industry by providing a seamless, integrated solution that enhances production efficiency and profitability. We are witnessing real-time tangible improvements in our production efficiencies and cost base.
“By fully deploying GelatoConnect Workflow, we are setting a new standard for efficiency and profitability in the print industry.”
Henrik Muller-Hansen, chief executive officer and founder of Gelato, adds: “We are honoured to work with these print trailblazers to continually improve our software. We are constantly innovating to stay ahead of the industry trends and meet the evolving needs of our customers.
“GelatoConnect users can look forward to cutting-edge features that haven’t been accessible to the print industry in the past, enabling them to compete not just in print production, but in the global retail space.”
