Durst Group Takes Majority Stake In CoCoCo Platform ─ Reinforcing Its Kyveris Software And AI Stack

Brixen, 8 July 2026. Durst Group has acquired a majority stake in Triple C Labs GmbH, the company behind CoCoCo Platform.

CoCoCo Platform continues to operate as an independent entity under its existing brand, leadership and customer commitments, and remains fully open to third-party OEMs, software vendors and print production customers.

The transaction is a targeted reinforcement of Kyveris, Durst Group's industrial software and AI stack for connected print production.

Kyveris provides the physics, color and orchestration intelligence that turns installed presses into data-driven production environments.

CoCoCo Platform contributes the horizontal integration layer that completes the picture: a JDF- and JMF-based data fabric that connects presses, prepress systems and shop-floor software across manufacturers into one coherent, AI-ready production graph.

Together, Kyveris and CoCoCo Platform close the gap between what a machine does and what a production floor knows. Physics meets flow. Color meets context. Data becomes decisions.

Data as the primitive, not the application. CoCoCo's core is a typed, event-driven data model with standardized entities.

Presses, prepress systems and shop-floor software agree on what a Job, a Product, or a Resource is, in real time.

Everything above that layer, from dashboards to automation to agentic AI, is a downstream consumer of the same live structure.

It is a technical decision with a strategic consequence: modern AI systems can reason about a print operation with the same reliability they reason about code or text.

Independence by design, openness by tradition. CoCoCo Platform will remain vendor-neutral and open to the wider print industry.

In the tradition of open standards that has shaped this sector, CoCoCo continues to serve third parties, including competing OEMs and software partners. #

They will benefit indirectly from the accelerated development that majority ownership by Durst Group now makes possible.

Faster releases. Broader integrations. Deeper data models. A stronger open ecosystem, not a smaller one.

Christoph Gamper, CEO and Co-Owner of Durst Group: "The right answer to complex production landscapes is rarely more machines. It is more clarity about the machines already running. CoCoCo built exactly that: a common data language that presses, prepress systems and shop-floor software can actually share. Dashboards, automation, AI assistants are all downstream questions. Get the data model right, and the rest follows. We are joining forces to accelerate the roadmap. And we are keeping CoCoCo Platform open, because a data fabric that is not open is not a fabric. It is a fence."

Karl Ciz, Co-Founder CoCoCo Platform / Triple C Labs GmbH:"The team at CoCoCo is delighted to partner with Durst Group. From the first time we spoke, it was clear we shared a common vision for the connected future of print, and a partnership became inevitable. An open ecosystem isn't just a strategic choice, but a prerequisite for meaningful innovation. While we are excited to reinforce Durst's Kyveris stack with our data fabric, we remain truly agnostic and vendor neutral. This investment doesn't restrict us, but rather accelerates our roadmap, allowing us to scale the CoCoCo Platform and reach many more third-party OEMs, software vendors, and PSPs worldwide."

CoCoCo's operating leadership, existing customer contracts and partner relationships remain unchanged.

Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
