hubergroup Print Solutions, an international leader in specialty chemicals and print solutions based in Germany, is set to spotlight its flagship ink series, Hydro-i, at IndiaCorr Expo once again from 11–13 September 2025.
Since its introduction in 2022, the water-based portfolio has earned recognition as a global benchmark in sustainable printing, delivering high-performance results with an environmental footprint. The hubergroup team is now excited to return to the place where the product’s journey began to share its experience, celebrate partnerships and look back on 260 years of innovation in printing inks.
Three years ago at IndiaCorr Expo 2022, hubergroup unveiled Hydro-i – its sustainable water-based ink portfolio for corrugated packaging. Today, this series stands as a standard in the global market for combining brilliant results with sustainable printing.
Developed through rigorous market analysis, close customer collaboration, and advanced R&D, Hydro-i allows converters to align production processes with evolving regulatory requirements and customer expectations. The portfolio reflects hubergroup’s commitment to innovation that benefits the entire corrugated packaging value chain.
Trusted solution for sustainable corrugated packaging
Hydro-i is more than just an ink series – it is a holistic system. Developed to meet the complex demands of corrugated box production, it includes tailored ink systems for post- and pre-print applications and is compatible with both coated and uncoated substrates. With low VOC content and high mileage, Hydro-i helps converters significantly reduce environmental impact while maintaining vibrant print quality.
The series is produced locally at hubergroup’s state-of-the-art manufacturing site in Silvassa (India) – a facility equipped with automated production, extensive quality control processes, and SAP-based traceability. Hydro-i stands out not only for performance and sustainability, but also for its reliable supply and technical service, making it an increasingly attractive solution across the Indian subcontinent and beyond.
Pratip Dey, business head at hubergroup India, sums up, “In an era where the packaging industry demands both environmental compliance and uncompromising quality, Hydro-i delivers on all fronts. Its journey from being unveiled at IndiaCorr Expo to becoming a global benchmark underscores our commitment to shaping the future of packaging through technology and partnership.”
This September, Hydro-i will come full circle, returning to the place where it all began. At the same time, hubergroup is celebrating 260 years of colors, technology, and innovation – marking a significant milestone for the packaging expert and heralding a new era of growth.
Visitors to IndiaCorr Expo 2025 are invited to connect with the hubergroup team at stand no A42, hall 9, to explore how Hydro-i can seamlessly integrate into their production processes and support their sustainability goals.
