"Nosotros produce 3 billion tubes every yr domestically and print 45 million square metres of laminates each year in India," says Ramasamy.G Ram Ramasamy, president, Essel PropackShort-run print orders
The unit of measurement already has a HP Indigo 6000 installed in 2011, besides several letter presses, offset presses and flexo presses.  This is the second Indigo digital press at its Mumbai unit of measurement which does the lamination and press of substrates used for its four tubing locations across India. The digital label presses are used for brusk-run applications for a lot size of 5,000 to 30,000 tubes while the offset and flexo presses deal with the larger print orders. They impress straight on the substrates that usually vary from 200 micron to 280 micron laminates for its domestic lamitube plants.

"The digital printing has not only the reward of brusk-run printing but is too very good for ensuring repeatability and color matching which is essential in packaging," says Ramasamy. "It has a quick turnaround time and has the power to impress on metallized surfaces. Nosotros employ digital, start and flexo printing processes but ensure that each job gets repeated past the same method to ensure proper color matching each time."

Essel which has 24 plants spread across 11 countries has seven manufacturing units in India and dominates the domestic lamitube industry with over fifty% market share. Holding a global marketplace share of 33% in the laminated tubes domain, Essel Propack is a market leader with units operating across countries of N and S America, U.k., Poland, Frg, Egypt, Russia, Cathay, Philippines, Indonesia and India. It is besides India's largest specialty packaging maker producing laminated and seamless or extruded plastic tubes.
