Coimbatore-based Autoprint is one of the leading players in the offset printing and allied machinery manufacturing industry. At the recently concluded Pamex 2017, the company signed multiple deals and had a successful show.
At Pamex, Autoprint displayed machines such as the Checkmate 50, Blankmatic 108 2H and Rapido 65, among others.
One of the highlights among the deals was the selling of Blankmatic 108 2H high precision blanking machine to Mumbai-based Printmann. Autoprint also sold its Checkmate 50 print inspection machine to Meera Prints of Mumbai and a Rapido 65 machine to a Delhi-based customer. In addition, machines were sold to Kochi- and Indore-based customers.
Autoprint also got response for Globalvision PDF to print inspection software. This tool enables offline sample inspections to protect against errors on packaging. It helps inspect print, proofs, labels, cartons, and nested press sheets in their printed formats against approved artwork.
“The response at Pamex was great as we were able to sign a number of deals to new as well as existing customers,” said N Prabhu, business head, post-printing machines.
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.
