What Zanatto Soluções Gráficas does

Zanatto Soluções Gráficas is a Brazilian graphic arts distributor founded in 1978 and headquartered in Curitiba, Paraná. The company distributes equipment, consumables, software, and technical services to commercial printers, label and flexible packaging converters, editorial and publishing operations, prepress bureaus, and brand owners across Brazil. Operations are supported by direct field sales teams in Curitiba, São Paulo, and Porto Alegre, complemented by commercial representatives nationwide, a virtual store, and its own logistics fleet operating from a 3,500 sqm facility.

The company's portfolio combines leading third-party brands with proprietary technology. It holds exclusive Brazilian distribution rights for Miraclon's flexographic solutions — including FLEXCEL NX, FLEXCEL Prime, PureFlexo Printing, UV Choice Printing, and Degraf processors — and is an authorized reseller for Kodak (CtP and Prinergy Connect workflow), X-Rite (spectrophotometers, light booths, and software), Continental (Conti-Air blankets and calibrated papers), Hybrid Software, and GMG Color. Proprietary lines include ZPower thermal plates, the upcoming RISE HRX flexographic plate, and the RiseFlexo technology platform, addressing thermal CtP and high-resolution flexographic platemaking.

Revenue is generated through a mix of equipment sales, recurring consumables, software licenses, technical services, and logistics, served across 300+ active clients in verticals including cosmetics, automotive, and newspapers. In 2024–2025 Zanatto expanded its geographic footprint into the Centro-Oeste (via Flexotintas in Goiânia) and Nordeste (via GP Print) regions, inaugurated a Packaging Demo Center in Curitiba in January 2025 — the first Miraclon demo facility outside Miraclon's own network — and resumed its Kodak distribution partnership in July 2024.
