Kornit Digital, a manufacturer of sustainable, on-demand, digital fashion and textile production, announced its acquisition of PrintFactory, a global, Netherlands-based technology provider of cloud-native workflow, color management, and production automation software.

The acquisition is said to represent a strategic step in Kornit’s mission to accelerate the digital transformation of the global fashion and textile industry. By integrating PrintFactory’s automation capabilities into its platform, Kornit stated that it strengthens its ability to connect demand generation, production workflow, and fulfillment into one continuous digital ecosystem.

“This acquisition is about more than workflow or color management,” said Ronen Samuel, chief executive officer of Kornit Digital. “It is about building the digital infrastructure the fashion industry needs to move from analog production to agile, on-demand manufacturing. By connecting demand generation, production workflow, and manufacturing through one integrated platform, we are accelerating the industry’s transition to a new production model.”

Erik Strik, CEO of PrintFactory, added, “For more than three decades, PrintFactory has focused on solving real workflow and production challenges for professional print operations. Joining Kornit opens an exciting new chapter. Kornit’s global reach, innovation culture, and platform vision will accelerate our roadmap and significantly expand the value we deliver to customers worldwide.”

Upon closing, expected in the second quarter 2026, PrintFactory will continue to operate from its headquarters in the Netherlands and will maintain its commitment to an open, technology‑agnostic platform, serving its existing global customer base and partners across all markets — including those outside textile and apparel printing, as well as those operating mixed technology environments. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed, and the acquisition is not expected to have a material impact on Kornit’s near-term revenue or earnings.
