Per Arild · Chief Commercial Officer · Glunz & Jensen · LabelExpo Barcelona 2025
Jean from Inkish interviews Per Arild, CCO of Glunz & Jensen, at the Glunz & Jensen stand during LabelExpo.
Per Arild explains that Glunz & Jensen first explored LED curing technology in 2012 but shelved it until a few years before drupa, when they launched their mid-web format Flex LED 420 system with great success. Building on that, they are now showcasing a larger wide-web 5280 system.
Glunz & Jensen sees its technology as part of a toolbox where each method fits different applications. He highlights that moving from UV to LED brings better performance, quality, and consistent output with fewer fluctuations. Per Arild also mentions Glunz & Jensen’s efforts toward sustainability, such as producing in Slovakia since 2011, running their factory almost entirely on solar energy, and using LED lighting, emphasizing that while they are not trying to be extremely green, they aim to be environmentally conscious.
