It will demonstrate its solutions through live sessions and audiovisual displays in Hall 9D, Stand H 22C.
The packaging supply chain solutions include software for packaging design, packaging prepress, workflow automation and packaging business management, digital flexo prepress and platemaking solution, as well as AVT print inspection systems. For PrintPack, Eskois expecting an audience from the entire print and packaging industry spectrum. And it also says that the future of the packaging and printing industry is very bright, automated and connected digitally.
Continuing on the company’s expectations from PrintPack, Karan Talwar, director of Esko, says, “We expect this event to bring back the cheer and commotion that we all love in the print industry. We expect exhibitors, participants and visitors to throng the alleys and be ready to check out the best technology on offer for our industry.”
“We’ve not had a major physical show or an exhibition in our industry for the past two years. With our most comprehensive solution, we would like to boost our sales to new entrants into the packaging supply chain. We would also like to assist and advise our customers to become more efficient, productive and ready to serve their customers with the digital transformation of their business.”
Note: The IPPGroup will be publishing the PrintPack India Show Daily on all five days of the event from 26 to 30 May 2022. Our May issues of Indian Printer and Publisher and Packaging South Asia will also contain previews of the event.
Packaging South Asia — resilient, growing and impactful — daily, monthly — always responsive
The multi-channel B2B in print and digital 17-year-old platform matches the industry’s growth trajectory. The Indian, South Asian, Southeast Asian, and Middle East packaging industries are looking beyond the resilience of the past three years. They are resuming capacity expansion and diversification, with high technology and automation in new plants and projects.
As we present our 2024 publishing plan, India’s real GDP growth for the financial year ending 31 March 2024 will exceed 6%. The packaging industry growth will match the GDP growth in volume terms and surpass it by at least 3% in terms of nominal growth allowing for price inflation in energy, raw materials, consumables, and capital equipment.
The capacity for flexible film manufacturing in India increased by 45% over the past four years. With orders in place, we expect another 20% capacity addition in 2024 and 2025. Capacities in monocartons, corrugation, aseptic liquid packaging, and labels are grown similarly. As the consumption story returns over the next six months, we expect demand to return and exceed the growth trajectory of previous years. The numbers are positive for most of the economies in the region – and as shown by our analytics, our platform increasingly reaches and influences these.
For responsible and sustainable packaging, with its attendant regulations and compliances, there is significant headroom to grow in India and the region. Our coverage includes the entire packaging supply chain – from concept to shelf and to waste collection, sorting, and recycling.
We target brand owners, product managers, raw material suppliers, packaging designers and converters, and recyclers. This is a large and complex canvas – the only thing that can work is your agile thinking and innovation together with our continuous learning and persistence.
The coming year looks to be an up year in this region, and this is the right time to plan your participation and marketing communication – in our rich and highly targeted business platform with human resources on the ground. Share your thoughts and plans and to inspire and mobilize our editorial and advertising teams!
