Karan Talwar of Esko India tells us that Printpack 2015 has been very successful for them. “Although our stand was in a less than ideal location, it generated a lot of footfalls. In fact people came searching for us. This is due to the fact that Esko is the defacto standard of the industry and brand awareness is high.”
The Kongsberg sample cutting table has done exceptionally well in the show says Talwar. With three XE10 cutting tables sold to Sikkim-based Nextgen Printers, DJS Printer in Manesar, Haryana and York Prints in Guwahati along with complete prepress workflow, this has been one of the most fruitful shows for Esko.
The Esko Kongsberg sample cutting tables are the real man among other sample cutting tables available in the market says Talwar. “These tables can do samples for duplex, for corrugated cartons, and do varnish blankets perfectly and thus have been the popular choice for our customers. I think Eastern India is back in the game and the show has been overall hugely satisfying for all of us.”
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.
