Serilith

What Serilith does

Serilith is a privately held Swiss distributor of printing equipment and consumables headquartered in Ballwil, Switzerland. Founded in 1988 and operating under multiple trade names (Serilith, Werberechnik24, STDB), the company serves three primary customer segments: the textile printing industry, the signage and advertising industry, and the screen printing industry, with a horizontal segmentation approach. It markets to SMB and individual customers as well as enterprise buyers across Switzerland through direct sales from its Ballwil office, phone support during business hours, and an e-commerce storefront at eshop.serilith.ch.

Serilith's product portfolio spans multiple product lines rather than a unified proprietary platform. Core offerings include AZON Digital Textile Transfer (DTF) systems (Pronto A3 sheet format and Pronto Plus 61cm roll-to-roll, available in CMYK+W and Neon versions) under exclusive Swiss distribution, Stahls thermal textile printing equipment and films (CAD-CUT, CAD-COLOR, Hotronix transfer presses), OKI digital LED printers (Pro6410 Neon, ES9541) with white/CMYW toner technology, FOREVER transfer media and sublimation systems, Lüscher Technologies' MultiDX computer-to-screen system at up to 5080dpi, and supporting consumables and accessories from Wilflex, Marabu, Lascaux, and Systemata. The company positions itself as a one-stop shop combining international equipment brands with consumables and software solutions like TransferRIP and Inkjet CTF Perfect.

The revenue model combines one-time equipment sales with consumables and materials revenue and recurring service contracts on selected ink lines (e.g., Marabu MaraJet). Pricing is not publicly disclosed and customers must request quotes, with some items available via the e-commerce shop. Marketing relies on the corporate website, Instagram, PDF flyers, and product demonstrations. The company has no disclosed funding rounds, no parent entity, and no public ownership structure beyond independent private operation, with a small team (11-50 employees) operating entirely within the Swiss market.
