Beim diesjährigen Rentnertreff bei colordruck Baiersbronn stand das Wiedersehen im Mittelpunkt – mit vielen Gesprächen, Erinnerungen und einem Blick darauf, was sich im Unternehmen verändert hat.

Am Donnerstag, den 9. Oktober 2025, fand der diesjährige Rentnertreff statt – ein liebgewonnener Termin, der längst als fester Bestandteil der Unternehmensgemeinschaft etabliert ist. In diesem Jahr durften wir mit 37 Ruheständlern so viele Gäste wie noch nie zuvor begrüßen. Die Freude war groß, unsere ehemaligen Kolleginnen und Kollegen wieder willkommen zu heißen und gemeinsam einen schönen Nachmittag zu verbringen.

Insights into the company’s innovations

The afternoon began with a tour of the company, expertly guided and moderated by Markus Thielen, Ralf Wieland, and Jürgen Kilgus. A lot had changed at the company since the last meeting—new machines, modernized work areas, and exciting projects were on display. During the tour, there was plenty of opportunity to chat with each other and reminisce about times gone by. For many participants, reuniting with old companions and sharing memories of shared experiences were among the most enjoyable moments of the meeting.

Coffee and cake

This was followed by the more relaxed part of the afternoon: over coffee and cake, Managing Director Mike Günther warmly welcomed those present and provided information on current topics relating to the company and its employees. Head of Human Resources Jürgen Kilgus then welcomed the new retirees by name and observed a minute’s silence in memory of colleagues who had already passed away – a moving moment of solidarity and respect.

On behalf of all retirees, Alexander Herrmann presented shareholders Renate Bengel, Marlis Schwedes, and Melanie Grebien with a small gift as a token of appreciation and gratitude. At the end of the meeting, each participant received a small gift—a nice reminder of a harmonious and warm afternoon.

This year’s retirees’ meeting ended with many good conversations, laughter, and a feeling of community. We are already looking forward to welcoming many familiar faces back to colordruck Baiersbronn next fall.
