Currently, we at IppStar are doing an electronic and phone call survey to know the effect of the Covid-19 lockdown in India on the printing and packaging industry and the perception of the industry’s emergence from this disruption. With your cooperation, we plan to make the results public by 10 May 2020.

From the two webinars that I have participated in concerning the print and packaging industry, I have found, on the one hand, wild optimism and the usual stuff about the bright future. On the other hand, there has been some realism based on how little we really know about Covid-19 and its potential spread and implications in India. There are all kinds of undercurrents such as financial help from the government, the costs of hygienic precautions in the workplace, the health and safety of workers, and the rate at which the economy will come back to what is being called “the new normal.”

Give us three minutes of your valuable time. Here is the link to the quick digital survey

IppStar (IPP Services Training and Research Pvt. Ltd) is the leading market research company that provides on the ground and face to face research, training and consultancy to the printing, packaging and publishing industry in India. From time-to-time, we do small web-based surveys supported by our research executives to understand the current scenarios and upcoming industry trends. Since we have probably talked to you numerous times over the past 20 years and asked you many questions in confidence, you can expect a call from our two full-time researchers who may have even met you in the past and visited your plants. This is the first time that they cannot actually travel across the country and come and see you, so it would be good if you can answer our questions online.
