Shubham Pack’s packaging machines at ProPak 2024

Miniature versions of machines displayed at Bengaluru event

At ProPak 2024 in Bengaluru, Faridabad-based Shubham Pack highlighted its portfolio of packaging machines for home care, personal care, pharmaceuticals, and the food and beverage industry. Known for its multi-track, collar-type, and lined carton packing machines, the company chose this event to highlight its newest innovation, the SPM Aseptica 24000 — an aseptic liquid packaging machine designed for the liquid packaging sector.

According to Manoj Dubey, senior sales manager, Shubham Pack, the company after examining the new trends in the packaging industry came up with the aseptic liquid packaging machine venture. “Apart from our packaging machines, due to the surge in demand for liquid packaging in India, we ventured into the aseptic liquid packaging space, which is in its initial form. It will grow eventually in the future,” Dubey said.

While many exhibitors at ProPak showcased machines at their stands, Shubham Pack took a different approach. Instead of full-sized machines, it presented miniature versions of the equipment, attracting visitors. “It was a logistically driven decision not to showcase our machinery.”

ProPak 2024 offered Shubham Pack a platform to connect with the Southern market, where the company has a presence through various installations. For Dubey and his team, the event provided an open forum to display their machines, engage with potential customers and gain insights from industry professionals. “Though we already have some presence in this part of the country, we saw ProPak as an opportunity to create more awareness and directly connect with clients,” Dubey said.

At the three-day event, the company had meaningful discussions with existing and prospective clients. Dubey said the exhibition generated numerous serious inquiries that could be a lead for sales. “It’s been a highly successful event for us. We were able to meet numerous visitors and had some insightful conversations to help us strengthen our relationships with customers,” he said.

Packaging South Asia — resilient, growing and impactful — daily, monthly — always responsive

The 18-year-old multi-channel B2B in print and digital platform matches the industry’s high growth trajectory. The Indian, South Asian, Southeast Asian, and Middle East packaging industries are increasing capacity and diversification, with high technology and automation in new projects.

We are mid-way through 2024, and India’s real GDP growth for FY 24-25 will exceed 6.3%. The packaging industry growth will match the GDP growth in volume terms and likely surpass it by at least 2.5% according to our research company www.ippstar.org .

The capacity for flexible film manufacturing in India has increased significantly over the past four years. We expect another 20% capacity addition in 2024 and 2025. Capacities in monocartons, corrugation, aseptic liquid packaging, and labels are growing similarly. As the consumption story returns, we expect demand to return and exceed the growth trajectory of previous years. The numbers are positive for most of the economies in the region – and as shown by our analytics, our platform increasingly reaches and influences these.

For responsible and sustainable packaging, with its attendant regulations and compliances, there is significant headroom to grow in India and the region. Our impactful coverage includes the entire packaging supply chain – from concept to shelf, to waste collection, sorting, and recycling. India is where the leading suppliers to the packaging industry are shifting their manufacturing – an opportunity with stable supply chains and low-cost production efficiencies.

We target brand owners, product managers, raw material suppliers, packaging designers and converters, co-packers, and recyclers. If you want to reach them, your agility and innovation shown on the industry-leading platform can do some of the heavy lifting.
