FLEXIBLE PACKAGING WITH GRAVURE AND FLEXO PRINTING WITH EXTRUSION IN 3/5/7 LAYERS - Manufacturing Plant, Detailed Project Report, Profile, Business Plan, Industry Trends, Market Research, Survey, Manufacturing Process, Machinery, Raw Materials
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
One of the most popular forms of packaging is Flexible Packaging. Flexible Package is easy to hold, convenient to store and simple to use. Made up of multi layer laminated sheets of plastics (PVC, LDPE, HDPE, BOPP, BOPET), paper, cloth, or metal foils.
The main products of this business are laminates made with various combinations of Polyester, BOPP, poly, metalized & hologram films and others and supplied in roll form and in various preformed pouches, manufacture of rotogravure cylinders for various types of rotogravure printing, Anilox/Coating, Rollers for flexo printing and Shims for holographic embossing and holograms and printing ink and adhesives and packaging & processing machines. This business involves customization according to the needs of customer.
It has successfully developed several new packaging material for various applications suitable for Food Industry, the Bakery and Confectionery Industry, Beverage Industry and the Personal Care Products Industry.
The benefit of flexible packaging is:
- It helps your product stay clean, safe and well protected from pilferage and adulteration.
- It helps your product to acquire sound barrier protection against moisture and gases and protection from damage and wastage.
- It offers your product extreme convenience of handling and disposal after use.
- It easily fits in with the shape of the contents thereby helping to cut down excess storage and transport costs.
- It offers tremendous saving in raw material consumption through usage extension to as much as four times.
- It absorbs more products per a package. A good example is coffee / nuts and snacks that come in foil brick packs and pouches rather than in cans or jars.
- It is environment friendly and helps to conserve energy for conversion.
- It helps a product manufacturer to enhance their product brand image leading in turn to better sales.
The capacity overhang can be gauged from the fact that as against an aggregate capacity of 1.74 lakh Tonnes, the domestic demand is currently only around 85,000 tonnes. The dependence on exports will be critical to the survival of the secondary, players in the extrusion markets. The global flexible packaging market is projected to grow to 17.5 mn tons in 2014 at an average growth rate of 3.4%, as per a report by PIRA International. Flexible packaging has been one of the fastest-growing sectors of the packaging market over the past decade. Flexible packaging substrates provide opportunities to reduce materials, lower package weight and cut costs.
Properties of flexible packaging can be easily tailored to meet demanding specifications for a wide range of products. Over the years, the flexible packaging market has developed from simple paper wrapping and bags to very sophisticated multilayer and multi material packaging for barrier protection and shelf life extension. Flexible packaging films can be made of single-web substrates such as flexible plastics (PE, PP, polyester or PA), flexible foils and flexible papers or can be coated, laminated or coextruded with other materials to enhance their physical properties in various ways.
Better Quality of Life through Better Packaging sums up the important place that packaging occupies in a modern economy. There is a very good scope and new entrepreneurs should venture into this field.
