With its first three events, Nordmeccanica offered customers a new way of communication regarding technical information, new products and technologies, and an update on the current research level and technology. This form of communication allows flexible packaging converters to enter technical detail by offering real information. Having promoted this innovation and managed it live on-air via satellite remains a demonstration of the reasons that support the company’s market leadership – quality, reliability, honesty and ethics.
The first 3 episodes are available for download streaming from the website www.nordmeccanica.oak-events.com (registration is required). At the same web address on 25 May 2021, converters can participate in the new episode, live, at the times indicated.
Episode 4 of Nordmeccanica Live
Episode 4 will focus on the presentation of the new evolution of the Duplex Combi Linear, the world’s best-selling machine in its class. The new Linear offers a series of innovations that respond to the latest developments in technology and align the machine to the current and near-future needs of our flexible packaging customers.
The machine will be presented in live runs – various coating technologies will be demonstrated, and all will be done live and in real-time with the cameras focused on the key points of this technology (coating heads, different adhesives, laminating units, drying tunnels, etc.). The practical demonstration will be accompanied by information notes on the latest developments in high barrier packaging technologies.

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!
