CCL acquires majority stake in Super Label

Editorial: Day TwoPackaging at the forefront

In the past two decades, the focus has been on printing. Now, with the increasing pen-etration of FMCG and white good products, the packaging industry is at the forefront. Visitors are expecting the same quality and speed from their primary and secondary packaging solutions.

On Day One, this was more than evident, with emphasis on post-press and end-of-line finishing.

Three trends thus far.One: Today, customers

want technology-led service experience from maintenance and technical services. This means, 24/7 service support for grievances and glitches.

Two: With massive pressure on margins, most exhibitors are offering technology tweaks at PrintPack to boost automation.

Three: The next generation is seeing digital printing as the best alternative to mini-mum order quantity (MOQ) of conventional printing.

A delegation of printers from Nepal and a bagpiper band were the highlights of the inaugural ceremony.

In his speech, SN Shah of Manugraph said Indian com-panies are manufacturing a variety of machines, as a result of which brand India is growing in popularity, espe-cially under the Make in India scheme of the govern-ment of India.

Post-press equipment, print enhancement equipment and packaging machines espe-cially rigid box manufacturing machines are the highlights of the exhibition.

Canon India scores a perfect ten at the show

Sanat Shah, founder member, IPAMA, PrintPack

PrintPack feels like a Mini DrupaI have had a walk-around in all the halls and had a chance to see more than 400 stalls. I am extremely impressed with the show. IPAMA president, HV Sheth and his team have mounted a well-planned show in a very short time.

What makes me happy is to see new technology and new products being launched with great fanfare. It is heartening to see many companies have a clear

plan to achieve their sales targets at the show. For me, personally, the HP stall was impressive. To win and succeed, the Indian print industry needs to be

an “antithesis” of the past. Reader demographics have impacted newspaper numbers all over the world. Therefore older models of cost, scale and readership do not work. That is why newspapers need to be much more value-based, agile and innovative. In India, we see this in the 2x1 web offset machines which are capable of producing 30,000 to 40,000 print runs. Even though the web offset market shrunk, because of the single circumference, single width format many new centres have sprung up in India. And so, a small newspaper in Maithili or Konkani could tap new segments of our literate population.

I have a wishlist for our industry. One is, for 3-4 industry sectors to come together and host a unified print and packaging show in India. So, imagine a bigger and more powerful PrintPack show. This makes it convenient for trade show visitors. Two, is our clout to lobby. It is time we ally with CII or FICCI so that our voice is heard in the highest power centres; and we are recognised as an apex body of industrialists. This is the way for Indian manufacturers to increase capacity, to bear higher risk, to avail economies of scale, take higher investment decisions and create more value for our customers.

By Noel D’CunhaCanon (Hall 7/ D18), the digi-tal print manufacturer, has reinforced its range of digital offering after unveiling ten new products as part of its pro fess iona l pr int ing domain. The ten launches at PrintPack is by far the highest number of products in the last eight years in a single show.

The ten products include the 12-colour ImageProGraf Pro-520 and ImageProGraf Pro -540, e ight- colour ImageProGraf Pro-540S and ImageProGraf PRO-560S in the ImageProGraf Pro series; the Océ ColorWave 700; the ImagePress C850, ImagePress C750, ImagePress C650 digi-tal colour production presses; and the ImagePress C8000VP, based on the successful C10000VP.

Inaugurating the products, Ka z u t a d a Ko b a y a s h i , President & CEO, Canon India, said, “Being the world leaders in imaging, at Canon we consider it our primary responsibility to push the

boundaries of the photogra-phy and printing landscape. As we embark on the land-mark journey of our third decade of existence in the country, we have further amplified our commitment, across both B2B and B2C seg-ments. As part of our ‘Vision 2020’, we are stepping up our propositions to ensure that innovation leads the strategy for all our offerings.”

Pragati buys SBL die-cutting kit

Provin’s hattrick with RMGT on the first day By Rushikesh AravkarProvin Technos (Hall 1/14) has announced the sale of three RMGT machines on the first day of PrintPack.

This includes two RMGT 760 presses, a five-colour and a four-colour machine; and a RMGT 1050 four-colour machine.

Vinay Kaushal, director, Provin Technos, said, “The first day was very fruitful. This is just the beginning, we will have few more announce-ments by the end of the show.”

The packaging busi-ness of ITC Limited has fortified its posi-tion in both cartons

and flexibles, winning global acclaim for excellence. The Chennai plant which is capa-ble of 3,000 MT per month conversion is leading the charge for a Swachh Bharat. A look at the production data sheet indicates that the pack-aging giant has pio-neered efforts to be carbon positive, water positive and solid waste recycling positive for the year under review. ITC’s commit-ment is remarkable given the spread, scale, and energy intensity of opera-tions. Deployment of windmills to generate elec-tricity and the steps to shift to energy-efficient lighting are few of the examples.

R Senguttuvan, chief executive, ITC Limited - Packaging and Printing Division talks about winning the Award

the Year Award, we believe is the outcome of the efforts that we have put in over the years. Our perfor-mance on sustainability is unmatched by any of our peers in the industries that we operate in. ITC’s triple bottom approach is the guid-ing force behind our efforts. This award g ives us immense pleasure and fur-ther motivation to move for-

ward with greater zeal. ITC today is an exemplar in sus-tainability practices, a fact that is manifest in its status of it being the only company in the world of comparable dimensions. We want to remain carbon positive, water positive and solid waste recycling positive for many years.

Few people know that we are the largest player in the folding cartons industry;

that our Chennai plant is one of the largest integrated packaging manufacturing units in this part of the world; that the said unit is completely powered by wind energy. The packaging solu-tions that we provide spans across platforms of folding cartons, tobacco packaging and flexibles (including labels). We have bagged the highest number of Awards for packaging in interna-

tional platforms over the last few years. Plus, our company is constantly expanding its renewable energy portfolio. 47% of ITC’s energy con-sumption is met from renew-able sources and this is expected to touch 50% by 2020.

I would suggest my peers to focus on customers and deliver value. Align your competencies to provide customer satisfaction. Each firm has its own strategy, we put customers first. Our phi-losophy for delivering value is a three-pronged approach of customer intimacy, opera-tional excellence and prod-uct superiority.

We continuously invest in new technology, the latest offering from us is on flexo printed corrugated cartons with in-line die-cutting for a wide spectrum of end mar-kets including fresh fruits, display cartons, shoe boxes, etc. Apart from this, to keep pace with the market demand for the boxes for smartphones we have also invested in a state of the art rigid box line.n

A new era for short-run newspaper printingPrakash expects Newslight 36 to be of interest to customers producing a daily print run of over 30,000 copies where low wastage and high reliability is paramount.

Productivity improvement is the central theme around which Newslight 36 has been designed. Its high technology features, excellent metallurgy and unique combination with SG 50 splicer and 2:2:2 folder makes it a workhorse. Listening to customersNewspaper producers have been looking for a rugged product to meet shortening print timelines. A heavy-duty machine with high degrees of automation is the need of the hour. Rising to the challenge, Prakash has built Newslight 36 from ground up to meet these needs. Prakash’s aim is to set a new benchmark in the newspaper printing segment by offering sufficient flexibility to meet the changing needs of newspaper printers.

The Newslight 36 will have live presentations at Prakash Offset stand in Hall 14 / G26.

Newslight 36: The next generation of newspaper printingPrakash Offset launches the game-changing newspaper printing press Newslight 36 at PrintPack India 2017

Being showcased at the show for the first time, the Newslight 36 is a single-width single-circumference newspaper press that exploits Prakash Offset’s 25 years of legacy in web offset technology.

All-round automationThe Newslight 36 has been designed from bottom up, keeping in mind the international competition.

Kapil Gupta, director, Narsingh Dass Group

CP Paul, managing director, APL Machinery

Vivekanand Kulkarni, manager-sales, Megtec

PrintPack has been one of the most important shows in our calendar. We are looking forward to an excit-ing show as we are showcasing a new range of cover-ing material from Ecological Fibers, USA and Alpha 3, China.

What to look out forAs a trading company, we strive to bring the best grades of papers to the market so that our consumers can use them to create better products for their end customers. We are promoting our concept of ‘amaz-ing media for awesome products’ where we have a basket of innovative products ranging from wood to cork to non-tearables, specially targeted for the digi-tal print market.

Future for paperThe growth in organised retail and improved pack-aging standards will drive paper demand. There are tremendous opportunities in the FMCG segment. The more consumers use Amazon and Swiggy, the more packaging is consumed. The more cards are swiped more thermal paper receipts are generated.

Paper importI feel imports will see an increasing trend both in commodity as well as specialty grades. Due to the capital intensive nature of the paper industry and lack of policy around forestry, we are not seeing the global scale investments in the industry. India con-tinues to strike a balance between promoting Indian papers and imports.

Myths around paperThe problem with our industry has been that there is a lack of effort to dispel the myths around paper. There are international organisations like twosides.info which are making concentrated efforts to cor-rect understanding about paper. We need to under-take a mission on a massive scale to understand the benefits of paper in books or packaging.

Digital print?Sadly, for many paper producers and consumers in India, digital means photocopy. I feel digital is going to grow in the times to come. I am bullish about this segment. The numbers may not be very huge com-pared to other segments, but the value is tremen-dous. It will continue to be a niche segment delivery with premium value and profits to the entire value chain.

APL Machinery is engaged in manufacturing of full range of UV coating and curing systems and Screen printing machines. We have an association of 22 years with PrintPack. This time we have a 196 sq/mtr stand.

Key productWhile we have the convention and digital UV, and LED UV, it’s the FAUV 2232 Gripper model which is our key product at the show. It has state-of-the-art engineering loaded with features. It’s gripper-to-gripper delivery is capable of running paper of 60gsm thickness with aqueous coating, maybe the only model in the world to do so. Other features include a speed of 6,000 impressions per hour, Tresu doctor chamber blade system with infeed and out-feed diaphragm; a ceramic anilox roller for equal coating one AMS P3UV cassette for speed of up to 8,000 sheets/hr; an EPS to adjust the lamp intensity automatically; twin IR with gold-plated surface for high power of infrared radiation; and high pile deliv-ery, among others.

Response to market changeAPL is well known for adopting new changes with new technologies, and testimony of that is our FAUV Gripper model launch. We have had good success with LED UV system. In December, SS Paper & Box, a packaging print company installed a LED UV system, to be fitted on its pre-owned Heidelberg five-colour with online coater. This was our eighth deal of the AMS LED UV lamp in India. Print enhancement is in demand in all segments of print and LED is one of the best ways to meet the increasing demand of print beautification. Our previous seven installations prove that though ini-tially LED UV is expensive, the results make both printers and end-users happy, thus leading to easy recovering ROI. Overall, we have 9,000 other prod-ucts installed worldwide.

Key goals at the showWe had a tremendous response to our products during the las show, benefitting APL to the tune of Rs 12 crore. The aim of participating at any trade show is to give maximum exposure to our prod-ucts. Hence at every show our focus is to display new range of products and services.

Megtec System is a splicing specialist. Originally a product of Megtec Sweden, with over 1,000 installations worldwide, it saw its ‘Made in India’ launch in 2009.

Company statsOverall financial year after the previous edition of PrintPack was good, but the 2016-17 is not very encouraging as yet, especially in printing equip-ment segment. With economic slowdown the world over, last year, we could sell less than 30 splicers from India. However, our Made in India AR35-I splicers has exceeded 250 installations in India and abroad.

PrintPack presenceMegtec Systems India was established in 2005. We first participated in PrintPack in 2009. After proper market survey, we launched the auto-matic flying paster AR35-I. Our presence in this event is always with a 15 sq/m stall. Flying paster is an ancillary equipment to printing and hence it has been displayed with web offset OEMs in their own stands. Our stand has always been meeting point for the customers.

Key product Automatic Flying Paster AR35-I and WTB 400, the web tension booster are our star products. However splicer stacked on splicer for newspa-per printers having constraints of space, will be the product to watch this year. Our splicer is with shaftless technology and can be installed inline, in basement or at right angle to press with turner bar for space saving. Also we can mount mono unit, four-Hi tower or another splicer on our splicer for the shortest press line length.

Response to market changeListening carefully to the customer’s voice and the competition, we have modified our equip-ment to the needs of the customer. We have con-trolled the product prices without compromising on product features, quality and efficiency. Right from the introduction in India, our products have met worldwide standards and requirements which still exceed local needs.

new press”. Vijay Kumar Pandya of QIPC-EAE said, “An EAE Press Retrofit brings your old press up to standard with current production requirements, and at the fraction of the cost of a new investment. After a Press Retrofit by EAE, your press will carry the EAE Seal of Quality and will be fit for the future again.”

Worldwide EAE has seen over 600 installations in equipping new

presses and numerous successful retrofit installations. It offers full retrofit on controls, drives and RTP. The basic requirement for an EAE Retrofit is a good or excellent mechanical condition of the press. “If this is met, everything is in favour of modernisation. Not only will the company be able to save a large amount of money compared to the installation of a new press, a retrofit can also be carried out during daily production without any restrictions,” Pandya added.

After Shenso Graphic Solutions (5/C12), a new company launched by New Delhi-based manufacturer duo Sheth Printograph (Daya) and Sodhisons, has introduced a Chinese carton

inspection system to the Indian market.According to Sonal Sheth of Daya, the inspection system can detect

printing defects like streak, missing print, dirty spot, splash, misregistration, colour deviation, misstamping, improper position of stamping, concave-convex and foil stamping deficiency.

“The function of variable data inspection enables it to read codes, analyse code level and inspect other code defects,” adds Sheth.

Specially developed for inkjet printing quality inspection of small sheet packets, the machine can also inspect variable data information. The USP of the machine is its surface finishing module. At a speed of 80-90m/min, it can inspect 20,000-30,000 packets per hour. For inspection alone, the machine can deliver at 150m/min and finish 40,000-60,000 packets per hour.

UV wavelength.According to Vinay Kaushal,

director, Provin, the multi wavelength LED technology will be a game-changer in the Indian market.

“It lets you enjoy the benefits of LED technology - low power consumption, low operating temperature and no ozone -

the end of the line and the total power consumption will be 12 kW plus 5 kW for chilling. So that’s a huge saving,” said Kaushal.

Vadodara-based Ravi Printers, which picked up the RMGT 950 showcased at Provin’s stand is India’s first customer to opt for the multi wavelength LED UV technology.

Provin Technos (Hall 1/A14) has introduced a multi-wavelength LED UV system,

which is being demonstrated live on the RMGT 950 five-colour plus coater UV press at its stand.

The system, though it deploys a LED lamp, can cure conventional UV inks thanks to the lamps capability to cover the spectrum of

without having to use costly LED inks,” Kaushal added.

In terms of power consumption, for a four-colour press three UV lamps are required which consume 17kW of power each, plus around 25kW is consumed for the chilling system.

“With multi wavelength LED UV, you will require only one lamp at

Countering knockoffsCounterfeit goods hamper sales and brand reputation. Rushikesh Aravkar speaks to packaging technologists and anti-counterfeiting experts to find out how packaging can fight back the menace

Counterfeiting is common in India across various sectors, most notably in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. On 11 January 2017, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) busted

a racket and seized fake cosmetics products worth Rs 2.39 crore from a shop at Crawford Market in Mumbai. According to reports, the FDA team found an elaborate set-up in a dingy room complete with machinery and packaging equipment along with products belonging to brands such as L’Oreal, Lakme, Revlon, Olay, Elle 18, Nivea, Fair & Lovely and several others.

Counterfeiting causes sales losses of 21.7% (USD 11.9 billion) for Indian compa-nies, and it steals around 25% of their market share, according to a whitepaper published by NetNames. Indian counterfeiting has a market size of Rs 55,000 crore (USD 11 bil-lion), and drains around Rs 5,000 crore (USD 1 billion) in exchequer revenue annu-ally.

The counterfeit goods not only hamper sales revenues of a company but also severely affect the brand’s reputation when consum-ers buy fake products that are ineffective and unsafe. The primary culprit is often the pack, which motivates a consumer to buy a knock-off because simple artworks are easily imi-ta ted and body- doubled by the counterfeiters.

“It is a lucrative business. The fake prod-ucts in the market range from high priced drugs like antibiotics to high volume prod-ucts like Paracetamol, which can be easily put in the market through retail stores,” says Ajay Bapat, head, packaging development, Emcure Pharmaceuticals.

LoopholesA decade ago, when a majority of items were sold loose, packaging was a sign of originality of the product. Today, packaging alone is no longer sufficient to establish its legitimacy on the shelf.

Over the years, technology barriers in manufacturing a pack have significantly reduced. Packs that lack brand protection features are most susceptible to duplication. In addition to this, there is a lack of sensitisa-tion of retailers and consumers for effec-tively differentiating between authentic and fake packaging.

According to RK Jain, group president (corporate finance and strategies), Uflex, packaging shall always be the only canvas that can ensure the legitimacy of the prod-uct. He adds, “Imagine your favourite coffee brand being sold loose in a polyethylene or paper pack. Would you vouch for the authen-ticity of such a product? I am sure the answer is a no. It is only through packaging that the brand custodians can include special brand

protection features for the consumers to be cautious and mindful.”

Even though packaging has always played a vital role for any brand equity, there is a need for constant innovation not only in packag-ing but also in the supply chain, where the bug lies.

Bapat says, “The supply chains in India are not secure enough as there is no check or control from any authority. That’s why smaller business partners like printers and converters are vulnerable to easy money, as getting the samples printed by unauthorised personnel can lead to a fake product.”

He adds, “The other reasons are unaware consumers, the practice of self-medication, availability of drugs without a prescription, blind faith on the pharmacist, and high mar-gins to middlemen, among others.”

Lately, everything, including medicines, is available online and there has been a surge in eCommerce, which adds to the menace of counterfeit products as there is no control on what you will receive and how safe it is.

“For instance, some leading shopping por-tals in India recently come under attack for allegedly selling branded shoes at one-fourth the actual price. There were allegations that these were factory products being passed off as branded shoes. Though it is yet to be estab-lished whether this is true or false, the fact is that counterfeiting has multiplied manifold

ARUN AGRAWAL, GENERAL SECRETARY, AUTHENTICATION SOLUTION PROVIDERS’ ASSOCIATION (ASPA)

Prominent FMCG brands like Amul, Mother Dairy, Milkfed, Anik are using various authentication solutions. In medicines, more and more brands are adopting solutions, such as high-security hologram with 2D and alphanumeric codes on each individual blister pack, bottle or injectable vial. However, there is a need for more consumer awareness. Usage of authentication technologies like UV protected film, colour-changing film and holographic film for secondary product packaging not only helps companies protect the products from being duplicated but also helps in marketing and sales promotion.

thanks to the ingress of the internet,” says Arun Agrawal, general secretary, Authentication Solution Providers’ Association (ASPA).

MeasuresIt is paramount for brand owners to protect their brands.

Usual counterfeits of a brand are either a lookalike or a sound-alike name. Bapat argues that such instances are common among less educated or rural population, where the product identification is primarily by colour or design on strip or carton.

It is imperative for the marketing and legal teams to work closely with the design and package development team to come up with an intelligent solution to this problem.

Bapat says, “There are two ways of looking at this from an organisation’s point of view. First, for the OTC or FMCG kind of prod-ucts, you need to hammer the con-sumer through con-tinuous advertisement regarding what feature needs to be seen for the o r i g i n a l b r a n d . Secondly, for a typical prescription product, a security feature is built to identify that the coun-terfeit product is not manufactured by the brand. To prove that this substandard product is not manufactured by the brand is a major concern even above the fact a huge volume is lost in the market.”

Agarwal explains how the State Excise Department has effec-tively implemented holographic excise a d h e s i v e l a b e l (HEAL) for liquor.

“In order to eradicate the problems caused by il l icit l iquor, the State Excise Departments have been deploying several measures. In the early 1980s, the Tamil Nadu government used tax stamps. These were on a thin glassine paper with a strong adhesive. These tax stamps were serial numbered and were given by Tamil Nadu government to companies that filled IMFL against payment of tax. In a similar way, the Uttar Pradesh State Excise Department started using secu-

rity hologram in 2001. Today, more than 25 states and union territories in India

are using approximately 22 bil-lion tax stamps. Approximately, 75% of these are in forms of full polyester security hologram and

25% are paper based, with or without a holographic element,”

says Agarwal.Recently, GEF India used a simi-

lar but more complex solution, in the form of a 3D holographic stamp, for its Freedom brand of refined sunflower oil. Jain says, “A 3D holographic stamp (unique to Uflex), sandwiched between two transparent isotropic polyester layers, makes the pack counter-feit-proof and assures the end-users of a product that upholds utmost standards of quality.”

The sandwiched holographic stamp is not susceptible to any rupture by scratching or rough handling in the supply chain. The end-result is a product that would be almost impos-sible for a counterfeiter to recreate.

Big Data and IoTOne of the effective methods of fighting fake products is tracking the product through the supply chain, from printer and manufacturer to retailer and end-user, thus eliminating all possible loopholes.

While track and trace technologies are being developed to aid anti-counterfeiting efforts, big data analytics and Internet-of-Things (IoT) are the enablers. These tech-nologies ensure connectivity at all levels of product value chain.

Jain explains, “Since IoT allows objects through smart sensors to be sensed and con-trolled remotely across existing network infrastructure, it creates opportunities for more direct integration of the physical world into computer-based systems, thereby result-ing in improved efficiency, accuracy and eco-nomic benefit in addition to reduced human intervention.”

The technology can incorporate various data forms and product tracking informa-tion, as well as link on-pack product identifi-cation with supply chain management, market enforcement, and forensic support services, if needed.

In June 2016, Bayer launched a new cap seal to protect users against counterfeit crop protection products. The Bayer CapSeal, based on the Trustseal technology of the Leonhard Kurz Stiftung, is a cap seal with visual security features and a QR code.

Scanning the code with the interactive smartphone app from Bayer gives the user important information about the authentic-ity of the product. The CapSeal is currently being introduced at all of Bayer’s European production sites for crop protection prod-ucts.

“Bayer is working with farmers, retailers and the authorities to resolutely tackle prod-uct counterfeiting,” says Dr Hans-Joachim Henn, global head of anti-counterfeit man-agement at Bayer. “Innovative packaging technologies like the Trustseal visual security element from the Leonhard Kurz Stiftung provide users with important information about the authenticity of Bayer products and thus help prevent the use of counterfeit prod-ucts.”

Jain feels the impermeable loop of big data and IoT will strengthen the security harness of products by protecting information falling prey to nefarious elements. I see this combi-nation as an augmented reality that will fur-ther aid in rendering foolproof and watertight physical anti-counterfeiting and brand protection solutions.

“When you stay connected with some-thing, the chances of it slipping out of your hands can be minimised,” he concludes.nAjay Bapat, Emcure Pharmaceuticals

Innovation is using imagination to make printed experience more interactive

Every change in technology helps you to be more productive and efficient

Predictions for 2017As more graphic communication compa-nies start to understand the omni-channel paradigm for communication, we should see an improvement in print volume. It is not about print it is about delivering rele-vant content to an eager target audience.

Predictions for 2017As an industry, digital printing is growing in excess of 15% per annum in terms of print volumes. Fortunately, the market is growing both in offset and digital.

Yoshinori Koide: customer expectations are changing

ter brand awareness. Those companies who understand the value of data as the control-ling mechanism of content delivery in the digital and ink on paper world will grow.

New technologiesPersonalised digital print is definitely becoming more pervasive and that can’t be done with lithography. While offset won’t disappear, more and more products will be produced via inkjet, as we see that quality and productivity improve. Statistically, consumers react better to personalised or customised printed pieces.

How to innovate? Printers think innovation means the pur-chase of new technology. I disagree; the core of innovation is using ones imagina-tion to make the printed experience inter-active and exciting. That is what I will be showcasing in my presentation. The core ingredient is getting the right people asso-ciated with the company. Equipment and software are a commodity. People create value.

Digital print in India Toner and inkjet both have a role in the digital print world since they service dif-ferent markets. As equipment acquisition costs continue to decline we will see increased sales in both areas, inkjet for the big printing companies and toner for the smaller ones.

Social media for a print firmNot to use social media is ignoring a huge opportunity. We live in a crazy, always on social media society. The most important way a graphic communication organisa-tion can employ social media is to post educational videos and articles that will help people understand new and complex technologies and showcase creative ideas. The more one uses a soft sell approach the better brand recognition and trust are gained.

technology helps to be more productive and efficient, saving time and money. As a man-ufacturer, we believe it is our duty to help our customers to take them to a next level.

New technologiesNew technologies help to be more produc-tive, predictive and better management of the devices. The new machines being manu-factured also returns lot of data in terms of the health of the machine and take proactive

actions. There is no way out. The require-ments and expectations of customers are ever changing and as printers, we have to sat-isfy them and expect to be ahead of it.

How to innovateAs a manufacturer, the expectation from us is to provide the devices which help printer friends to improve their offerings to cus-tomers. So that printers can get an edge over the competition. This can be achieved by being more innovative in thought pro-cess and having a set of devices to realise those creative ideas.

Digital print in IndiaDigital printing is growing and we expect the growth to continue. We are very bullish on inkjet and expect its share in India to increase.

Social media for a print firmSocial media is very important in taking us to a wider audience in infinite space. The various online platforms also help the print-ers to share and receive lot of information from their customers, especially feedback.
