Hostmann-Steinberg's roots date back to 1765, with the founding of Michael Huber München.  Since then, the hubergroup has grown with each establishment of hubergroup companies around the world and the acquisition of Hostmann-Steinberg and its subsidiaries in 1977. Increasing the distribution of efficient and centrally managed companies, the hubergroup has now become a leading ink manufacturer in the world.

With over 240 years of experience in the printing ink industry, the hubergroup is still managed by the founding family.
