Philipp Klinger Is the New DACH Sales Manager


Reinforcement for the ColorGATE team

Effective 15 February 2011, Philipp Klinger (42) will strengthen the team as the new sales manager for the DACH region (Germany - Austria - Switzerland) at the internationally successful RIP software vendor, ColorGATE Digital Output Solutions GmbH. He will focus primarily on providing comprehensive support to the sales partners as well as on winning and managing key accounts. Klinger was last employed in a managing director capacity for dpm Digitale Printmedien GmbH, a medium-sized sales organization for digital wide-format printing based in northern Germany.

Practical experience and professional competence

"Philipp Klinger has more than 20 years of practical and professional experience to offer in the fields of digital printing, advertising technology and screen printing," said ColorGATE Managing Director Thomas Kirschner. "He has intricate knowledge of the situation in sales and is very familiar with current needs and demands - optimal prerequisites for providing perfect consulting services and support for our sales partners in all German-speaking regions."

Excellent solutions for the graphical printing industry

"I was thrilled to accept the offer made to me by ColorGATE, Europe's technology and market leader in this field. ColorGATE supplies the most extensive range of RIP software solutions for the graphical printing industry. With ColorGATE, you get not only the print job from the customer via the integrated Web-to-Print Shop, you can also create the color proofs and then prepare your screen films or offset printing plates to produce the printing campaign in screen, offset and digital printing in parallel production processes with highly reliable color accuracy.

All the while, the RIP software solutions from ColorGATE very efficiently manage and monitor the entire production process - from XXL printers right on up to A4 color copiers.

Thanks to highly color-accurate printing based on FOGRA 39, you reduce the number of rejects, the workflow oriented towards the printing process lowers production costs and with the ingenious Ink Saver, you save up to 25 percent of the ink costs. I know of no other RIP software solution that is able to combine all these features and is virtually investment-neutral since it pays for itself in a very short time," said Philipp Klinger, enthusiastically.
