“GMG has been an important technology partner in the development of our Open Software Initiative, and bringing GMG Americas into the partner network is a natural next step,” said Chris Schowalter, Global Sales Director Software, Durst Group AG. “Their deep understanding of demanding color environments, combined with their sales, service and support capabilities across the Americas, makes them an ideal partner to bring our open software approach to a much broader customer base.”GMG has long paired its industry-leading color management technology with best-in-class production workflow partners, and the OSI portfolio adds another strong, open option to that ecosystem, extending GMG Americas’ capabilities into automated prepress, RIP processing and broader production workflow automation.
“Customers are increasingly looking for ways to simplify production, reduce manual intervention and connect more of their workflow,” said Joseph Varone, President, GMG Americas. “The Open Software Initiative gives us an open and modular way to address these requirements, while continuing to deliver the color quality and expertise our customers expect from GMG. It’s another example of how we pair trusted color technology with the right workflow tools for each customer’s environment, and it lets us support customers more holistically, from file preparation through color-managed production.”
For GMG Americas customers, Prepare extends the offering upstream into prepress automation by automating file checking, correction, preparation and PDF processing. Produce combines high-performance RIP technology with advanced color management, bringing GMG color technology into an open production platform designed for demanding display graphics environments.
The partnership will be showcased at PRINTING United Expo 2026 in Las Vegas. Visitors are invited to meet the Open Software Initiative team at Booth C934 to learn more about the partnership and discover how the OSI portfolio combines open workflow automation, advanced color technology and cross-brand production connectivity. OSI is the open, vendor-neutral integration layer of Kyveris, connecting the partnership to Durst's broader vision for industrial intelligence in digital print production.
