Industrial digital printing startup, Velox, raised a $38 million Series C funding round led by Fortissimo Capital, with participation from JAL Ventures, O.R.T. Technologies, Ilan Holdings, Evonik, Waypoint Investors, and Migdal Insurance & Finance.
The capital will be used expand Velox’s global operations and further its innovations in high-speed, direct-to-container digital printing.
Building on their Series B, $32 million investment in 2018, Velox’s unique approach to digital decoration directly on rigid and cylindrical containers offers a transformative solution in the packaging industry. Their proprietary technology and diverse ink formulations allow for high-volume production, shifting the packaging decoration paradigm towards more personalized, brand-focused, and sustainable options.
