Sustainable strategy and alternative products drive strong early-year revenue performance for German firm.
German-based CM Printing GmbH has reported a 16.87% increase in revenue for the January to April 2025 period compared with the same timeframe last year, underpinned by growing demand for sustainable and cost-effective printing alternatives.
The company credited the robust performance to particularly strong growth in its industrial ink segment and expanded printer services for municipalities, businesses, and private clients.
Despite a broader market decline in franking volumes, CM Printing’s core business in consumables for franking machines remained stable. The company noted a steady influx of new customers opting for its recycled alternatives over original equipment manufacturer (OEM) products, citing both cost and environmental concerns.
“Our core business in franking machine consumables remains stable at last year’s level – despite declining overall franking volumes, we continue to gain new customers who switch from overpriced OEM products to our high-quality, recycled alternatives,” the announcement said.
The firm also highlighted the contributions of its expanding workforce, including both new hires and long-standing employees, in meeting growing market demands and ensuring delivery reliability. “Thanks to their dedication, we’re able to meet market demands and deliver reliably,” the post continued.
