Gujarat-based Goldcoin Angel CPP Film is a part of the Goldcoin group founded by Ashvin Pansuria and Ramesh Tilara in 2005. The group manufactures a wide range of products mainly in protective packaging and insulation and is ISO 9001:2000 Certified & HVAC certified. With a workforce of over 1000, 5 manufacturing facilities, three fabrication units, two trading houses, and one marketing office, the group is marching ahead rapidly; growth is inevitable.

Goldcoin Angel is a joint venture with Angel Products Company -Thailand to produce 10,000 MT per annum of flexible films for food packaging in their state-of-the-art plant. In a recent quality enhancement move, they have installed a high-end Vetaphone corona treater on their production line in Rajkot. The installed system working width is 2200mm and is designed to run at 300 meters per minute.

Vetaphone corona treater ensures long-lasting quality print

Vetaphone, Denmark, was founded by Verner Easby, who invented Corona treatment and established the company in 1951. Corona treatment increases the surface energy of plastic films, foils, and paper to improve the wettability and adhesion of inks, coatings, and adhesives. Polymer films have chemically inert and non-porous surfaces with low surface tensions making them non-receptive to bonding with substrates, printing inks, coatings, and adhesives. A quality corona treatment is necessary to ensure perfect print quality and obtain a flawless and long-lasting print.

Commenting on the Vetaphone installation, Bhavesh Tilara, Director of Goldcoin Angel CPP films, said, “At Goldcoin, to deliver the ultimate quality, we invest in the best available equipment globally. Vetaphone being the inventors of corona treatment, has been delivering quality treaters to renowned OEMs around the world; it was natural to prefer this state of art treater that would enhance the quality of our films and an advantage for our customers”.

The sale and installation of this Vetaphone corona treater have been handled by Vetaphone’s exclusive Indian agents Weldon Celloplast, New Delhi. Weldon is a solutions supplier to the label and packaging industry. They represent leading internationally renowned suppliers of equipment, tooling, and consumables.

Kanwardeep Sahni, managing director of Weldon, says, “Gold coin is a fast-growing group and for them to opt for Vetaphone was a natural exercise opting for the universally acclaimed product that would enhance the print quality of their films delivering additional value to their customers.”

The impact, resilience, and growth of responsible packaging in a wide region are daily chronicled by Packaging South Asia.

A multi-channel B2B publication and digital platform such as Packaging South Asia is always aware of the prospect of new beginnings and renewal. Its 16-year-old print monthly, based in New Delhi, India has demonstrated its commitment to progress and growth. The Indian and Asian packaging industries have shown resilience in the face of ongoing challenges over the past three years.

As we present our publishing plan for 2023, India’s real GDP growth for the financial year ending 31 March 2023 will reach 6.3%. Packaging industry growth has exceeded GDP growth even when allowing for inflation in the past three years.

The capacity for flexible film manufacturing in India increased by 33% over the past three years. With orders in place, we expect another 33% capacity addition from 2023 to 2025. Capacities in monocartons, corrugation, aseptic liquid packaging, and labels have grown similarly. The numbers are positive for most of the economies in the region – our platform increasingly reaches and influences these.

Even given the disruptions of supply chains, raw material prices, and the challenge of responsible and sustainable packaging, packaging in all its creative forms and purposes has significant headroom to grow in India and Asia. Our context and coverage engulf the entire packaging supply chain – from concept to shelf and further – to waste collection and recycling. We target brand owners, product managers, raw material suppliers, packaging designers and converters, and recyclers.
