An ISO 9001:2008 certified company, Miraj entered the industry in 2001 with notebook and stationery printing. In 2013, Miraj diversified into folding carton packaging. Growing at a good pace, the company decided to bring prepress in-house. After thorough deliberations and research, Miraj opted for Esko’s seamlessly integrated packaging solution of ArtiosCAD software and Kongsberg XE10 sample table. Esko’s focus on the packaging industry with their continuous development in prepress technology is the driving factor for this partnership. Miraj has invested in Esko’s structural design software ArtiosCAD as well as Kongsberg XE10 sample table to boost quality, consistency and enhance productivity.
ArtiosCAD is one of the most popular structural design software for packaging design. With dedicated tools specifically designed for packaging professionals for structural design, product development, virtual prototyping and manufacturing, ArtiosCAD increases productivity. It is the ideal product for all corrugated, folding carton and POP, POS, FSDU display designers and is unrivalled in structural packaging design.
