Chitra Prakashan’s notebook division, Chitra Exports, complements its academic books and learning materials operations. Nitin Rastogi, CEO of Chitra Prakashan and founder and CEO of its sister concern, Blueprint Education, explained that the business diversified into the adjacent segment several years ago to expand the publisher’s footprint in the Uttar Pradesh educational publishing market.
The notebooks division is equipped with a complete automated German ECH Will line and five Line-O-Matic automatic lines, as well as manual lines for notebook production. Together, the six automated lines produce one lakh notebooks daily, Rastogi stated.
He added that the Line-O-Matic machines enable easy switchover for different types of products, whereas the ECH Will machine is used for bulk orders. All kinds of notebooks, including math notebooks, ruled, interleaf, four-line, and graph paper composition notebooks, are produced in a variety of formats such as spiral, wiro, soft-bound, and hard-bound, along with registers.
