Press release submitted on behalf of Heidelberg
The sales and service organization of Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (HEIDELBERG) in the United States continues to strengthen its customer-focused approach in this key print market. As part of this effort, the HEIDELBERG USA team will be moving to a new North American headquarters in Marietta, Georgia, less than five minutes from their current Kennesaw location. The highlight will be a new showroom and training center where customers can experience the company’s latest technologies and end-to-end solutions for the print and packaging market.
“The new site will be known as the “Print Media Center Americas – Home of Print,” reflecting the rebranding of HEIDELBERG’s global demonstration center in Wiesloch, Germany, introduced earlier this year during the company’s 175th anniversary,” said Clarence Penge, President of Heidelberg USA.
The Marietta facility will feature modern, collaborative workspaces designed for approximately 400 U.S. based employees, along with shared, well-designed common areas and additional on-site amenities.
“We want the Home of Print to be a place where employees and customers alike have opportunities to network and learn,” said Clarence Penge. “It’s where people come together to connect, share ideas, and work together on solutions.”
Intentionally designed for efficiency and innovation, 50% of the space will be dedicated to demonstration and training, underscoring HEIDELBERG’s strong commitment to workforce development. Its modern showroom will highlight HEIDELBERG’s latest technologies and solutions – supporting demonstrations for customers in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico as well as hosting industry events, workshops, and customer meetings.
The purpose-built training center for operators, maintenance teams, and staff has been designed to inspire learning and drive excellence across the printing industry. Once opened, Print Media Center Americas – Home of Print will continue to offer its full curriculum of free operator and maintenance training courses, which it introduced in 2022 to address the industry’s growing need for skilled operators and continuous education.
“This move affirms our focus on driving innovation, supporting education, and encouraging collaboration,” said Penge. “We’re excited for this facility to support the next generation of print professionals. It aligns perfectly with our company goals of helping our customers succeed and inspiring people to be their best.”
HEIDELBERG’s new North American headquarters will open for employees in early 2026. HEIDELBERG’s main contact number and technical service and support line, (800) 437-7388, will continue without interruption during the move. Customers and suppliers will be notified of any billing or remittance address changes. After relocating equipment and finalizing the transition, HEIDELBERG will host a grand opening event for the “Print Media Center Americas – Home of Print” later this year.
“We look forward to inviting people to the new Home of Print soon – working alongside our customers, partners, and the industry as we build new relationships and shape the future of print together,” said Penge.
