Economies in Europe endeavour to recover and improve in a
difficult prevailing situation, India too
has its own share of woes of a
receding growth rate down to 5%, from a high of 9.3% two years ago in 2010-11.
Industry is worried and wishing for an escalation in demand. While the
international economies strive and stagger towards better economic scenario,
the Indian industry is in a situation whereby it is evolving strategies that
will bring stability and consistent growth. Likewise, the Indian self adhesive
label industry that was continuously experiencing a high growth rate is feeling
the pangs as an after-effect of a slowdown in growth even though it is still
romancing with a near double digit rate of growth. However still, the increased
capacity due to new investments which have resulted in some idle moments for
the label presses, worries the label printers at large. At this time it has
become imperative for the label printers to innovate and produce products that
will attract the consumers and bring back the much needed growth in demand. As
per PWC (Price Waterhouse Coopers), “Three quarters of US private companies are
prioritizing innovation with growth as objective” At this time it will be
appropriate to quote Steve Jobs, “You can’t just ask customers what they want
and then give that to them. By the time you get it built, they’ll want
something new” Taking cue from such sentiments a dynamic and committed team at
Noida based Zircon Technologies India Limited, lead by Sanjeev Sondhi has
decided and vowed to tread the path to innovation and technical excellence. In
a definite move to implement and augment their innovative ambitions, they have
invested to enhance their manufacturing capabilities with state of art
equipment. They have in a recent move acquired, perhaps the largest label press
in India so far. The label press with diverse printing and converting
capabilities is, “Omet Varyflex V2”
