WIESLOCH-WALLDORF , GERMANY—  Heidelberg has revamped its financing with an expanded facility to support growth plans and strategic developments. The world’s largest printing press maker has agreed a new €436m loan facility with a consortium of banks. It replaces the previous €370m syndicated credit line that was agreed in 2023 and was due to mature in 2028. The new financing matures in 2030, with an option to extend to 2031.Heidelberg CEO Jürgen Otto said the fresh finance setup reflected the positive view of the business held by the banks involved. He commented: “This new consortium loan enables us to bolster our financial stability. At the same time, the successful early extension of the syndicated credit line highlights the trust that the banks have in Heidelberg.” Heidelberg stated that on 30 September 2025, around €59m of the previous credit line had been used, mainly for cash drawings and guarantees related to its export business. Therefore, 84% was unused at that reporting date. Last July Heidelberg announced it was expanding into the defence sector through a deal with German specialist Vincorion Advanced Systems.
