To support India’s growing demand for packaging inks
Siegwerk, one of the leading global providers of printing inks and coatings for packaging applications, has announced the commissioning of a new warehouse and colour matching centre in Tauru (Near Sohna), Haryana.
This move follows the recent inauguration of the specialized solvent-based blending facility in Siegwerk’s Bhiwadi site in Rajasthan.
The new centre in Tauru, a facility spread across 36,000 Sft, will position Siegwerk for further growth in the northern market. The company builds on experience, innovative technology and the adoption of global best practices in ink manufacturing.
With an investment of Rs 40 million, the facility boasts a warehousing capacity of 1,000 tonnes and colour matching for the north zone customers. This new matching centre is equipped with an ultra-modern quality control lab in line with global standards.
The facility was inaugurated by Ashish Pradhan, President, Siegwerk Asia. Within the first three months of 2022 alone, Siegwerk Group has invested close to Rs 250 million into its Indian operations.
Commenting on the development, Ramakrishna Karanth, CEO, Siegwerk India said, “This expansion is in line with our strategic growth plan to sustainably expand our footprint in India. This new expanded capacity is a welcome indicator of the company’s growing demand since the launch of our 100% safe inks.
