Durst appoints Thomas Macina as global sales manager

The Durst Group, a manufacturer of digital printing and production technologies, is restructuring its Label & Flexible Packaging segment. The current segment manager Helmuth Munter will retire at the end of 2021 after more than 40 years with the company. He will be succeeded in the role of global sales manager, Label & Flexible Packaging, by Thomas Macina. The native of South Tyrol (Italy) comes from HP Indigo, where he was most recently Labels Business Manager EMEA in Barcelona.

Thomas Macina’s career spanned more than 15 years at HP and he is considered an expert in digital printing technology. He has been in his introductory phase at the Durst Group since February and will assume his role for the EMEA region in April. This will be followed in June by responsibility for global sales of Label & Flexible Packaging products.

Until his retirement, Helmuth Munter will continue to be involved in the transition and provide advice and support to the new management team.
