Noida-based CreativeGraphics, known for being one of the largest flexographic plate processing units in India and having six manufacturing plants across the nation is ready to participate in PrintPack India 2022. PrintPack India is taking place after a gap of almost three years at the India Expo Centre & Mart, Greater Noida.
Creative Graphics has an experience of about 21 years in Flexographic printing packaging and has been instrumental in getting new technologies in the area. The company has been participating in PrintPack regularly and this time, it will show its availability at Stand C5 Hall 5. At its stand, the company will be displaying its flexographic printing plates and accessories to visitors.
Deepanshu Goel, managing director at Creative Graphics, giving his views on PrintPack said, “Creative Graphics is actually poised to become the largest and the most respected company in prepress of printing and packaging. At PrintPack, we are looking forward to meet our customers and show them the recent innovations that took place in the packaging industry. We will be there at PrintPack to grow some sales and also showcase what is in the pipeline of Creative Graphics.

2023 promises an interesting ride for print in India
Indian Printer and Publisher founded in 1979 is the oldest B2B trade publication in the multi-platform and
multi-channel IPPGroup. While the print and packaging industries have been resilient in the past 33 months since the pandemic lockdown of 25 March 2020, the commercial printing and newspaper industries have yet to recover their pre-Covid trajectory.
The fragmented commercial printing industry faces substantial challenges as does the newspaper industry.
While digital short-run printing and the signage industry seem to be recovering a bit faster, ultimately
their growth will also be moderated by the progress of the overall economy. On the other hand book
printing exports are doing well but they too face several supply-chain and logistics challenges.
The price of publication papers including newsprint has been high in the past year while availability is diminished by several mills shutting down their publication paper and newsprint machines in the past four years. Indian paper mills are also exporting many types of paper and have raised prices for Indian printers. To some extent, this has helped in the recovery of the digital printing industry with its on-demand short-run and low-wastage paradigm.
Ultimately digital print and other digital channels will help print grow in a country where we are still far behind in our paper and print consumption and where digital is a leapfrog technology that will only increase the demand for print in the foreseeable future. For instance, there is no alternative to a rise in textbook consumption but this segment will only reach normality in the next financial year beginning on 1 April 2023.
Thus while the new normal is a moving target and many commercial printers look to diversification, we believe that our target audiences may shift and change. Like them, we will also have to adapt with agility to keep up with their business and technical information needs.
Our 2023 media kit is ready, and it is the right time to take stock and reconnect with your potential markets and customers. Print is the glue for the growth of liberal education, new industry, and an emerging economy. We seek your participation in what promises to be an interesting ride.
