Valco Melton India made a strong impact at Printpack 2025, showcasing its advanced cold glue and hot melt systems alongside live demonstrations of its inspection technology. Speaking at the event, Ravi Kiran from Valco Melton India highlighted the company’s extensive presence at the exhibition, with its solutions integrated into nine different OEM production lines.
“Printpack is an impressive platform—it’s huge, and the response has been phenomenal,” Kiran said. “By collaborating with multiple OEMs, we enabled customers to see our systems in action across different setups, ensuring seamless integration with their preferred manufacturers.”
Valco Melton’s participation at Printpack provided a unique advantage, allowing the company to connect directly with key industry players, including folding carton machine manufacturers. Kiran noted that the event eliminates the need for extensive travel to meet clients, as the exhibition serves as a one-stop destination for engaging with potential and existing customers.
Reflecting on business performance, Kiran described 2024 as a strong year, particularly for the packaging, corrugated, and automotive sectors. “While some segments faced challenges, others performed exceptionally well, with packaging continuing to be a major growth driver,” he said.
Looking ahead to 2025, Kiran expressed optimism about further growth, especially in emerging sectors such as electric vehicles (EVs), where government support is expected to drive expansion. “With our cutting-edge solutions, we anticipate another fantastic year across key industries,” he added.
