All Time Offset Printer, a commercial printer and rigid box manufacturer based in Noida, was awarded for its excellence and innovation in rigid box making at the Intrapac exhibition in Greater Noida in December.
A week later, when Packaging South Asia met Kailash Jajoo, the owner, and his son, Sargam Jajoo, we discovered that the company was busy shifting its technology and equipment from its main plant in Noida’s Sector 63 to a newly owned unit in Sector 65. While the former plant will be designated for commercial printing, the new unit will be used to make rigid boxes.
All Time Offset Printers, the official printing partner of the IPP Group’s magazines, expressed its surprise when its name was called out during Intrapac’s packaging awards. “We were invited to the event. The invitation read that we had been nominated for an award. We were in total disbelief while meeting industry peers. Someone sitting next to me alerted me that our name had been announced for the award,” Jajoo said.
Sargam, an MBA in finance, joined the business a year and a half ago. He expressed his interest in the printing and packaging sphere. “Initially, I thought of gaining some work experience before joining the business, but curiosity drove me to join,” he said.
Print volumes have come back, and turnover has more than doubled since the pandemic, Jajoo says. During the Covid pandemic, he explained, the company’s annual turnover was around Rs 12 crore, which has grown to around Rs 25 crore. He said early adoption of embellishment technology with a strong post-press unit kept the company growing. While its customers are mostly based in NCR, the books and boxes are sent across India with some exports.
“We have always been a quality-centric business, and that has retained us very well in the market. Even today, we don’t have a marketing team. All orders come through word of mouth. At present, our printing and rigid boxes share a 50:50 ratio, but as long as we stick to our core, quality, growth is inevitable,” he says.
All Time Offset Printers has acquired presses with improved and automated technologies and built a team of skilled and trained resources. In 2000, it bought a single color Dominant offset press; in 2005, it installed its first multicolor offset press, a used 4-color Komori sheetfed.
In 2010, it added an SM 74 Heidelberg, and during drupa in 2012, Jajoo realized he should go for a brand new machine. Although motivated, he did not have enough space in his unit and had to acquire a rented plot in Sector 63. He was able to install a brand new 5-color RMGT in the newly built premises in 2015, which was soon complemented by a Kodak thermal CtP device.
In 2018, the company purchased a rebuilt SM 102 Heidelberg multicolor press from Japan to produce books for a textbook publishing house. In 2025, it got an automatic stop cylinder screen press, supplied by Ample Graphics. Jajoo plans to buy another multicolor offset press, which he says could be either a 6 or 8-color press. While there are plans to invest in high-end machinery for commercial and book production, he is optimistic about the future of its packaging expansion.
