Asepto will be at Gulfood Manufacturing Stand B7-28, Hall No. 7

Indian packaging major UFlex will showcase its never-seen-before foil stamping innovation for the beverage industry at the Gulfood Manufacturing Expo 2021 in Dubai, to be held during 7-9 November 2021. Uflex manufactures aseptic liquid packaging material and filling lines under the brand name Asepto.

According to the company, Asepto has a strong presence in the Indian market already and is rapidly growing into international geographies. It has established itself as a distinct brand for its strong technology-oriented innovation to deliver unique packaging features to beverage manufacturers all over the world.

Speaking about this innovation, Ashwani Sharma, president and CEO of the aseptic liquid packaging business at UFlex stated, “Unseen remains unsold on a crowded shelf, so visibility is crucial, and the more eyecatching the packaging is, the more visible it is to the consumers. Our company’s guiding vector is innovation to create value-added differentiator. Asepto packaging exemplifies our ability to stand out at the point of sale, which is advantageous to the beverage industry. Our premium range of foil stamped packs, one of our several USPs, has the ability to create a substantial market differentiation in this segment. Foil stamping is an aesthetic rejuvenation technique that is used to make text and patterns on the packaging stand out.”

Talking about the potential that Asepto offers to global beverage manufacturers, Sharma added, “Gulfood Manufacturing is the most influential exhibition of the food & beverage industry and every year, we follow a ritual to share Asepto’s packaging experience with our global customers. We are all set to dazzle the stage once again with our artistically revitalizing global breakthrough of ‘foil stamping’ in aseptic liquid carton packaging. Our ongoing efforts are focused toward providing first-hand experience to our worldwide customers and developing new sustainable packaging trends.”

Uflex has state-of-the-art facility in the industrial hub of Sanand in Gujarat for the manufacturing of aseptic liquid packaging material.

The Covid-19 pandemic led to the country-wide lockdown on 25 March 2020. It will be two years tomorrow as I write this. What have we learned in this time? Maybe the meaning of resilience since small companies like us have had to rely on our resources and the forbearance of our employees as we have struggled to produce our trade platforms.

The print and packaging industries have been fortunate, although the commercial printing industry is still to recover. We have learned more about the digital transformation that affects commercial printing and packaging. Ultimately digital 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.

Web analytics show that we now have readership in North America and Europe amongst the 90 countries where our five platforms reach. Our traffic which more than doubled in 2020, has at times gone up by another 50% in 2021. And advertising which had fallen to pieces in 2020 and 2021, has started its return since January 2022.

As the economy approaches real growth with unevenness and shortages a given, we are looking forward to the PrintPack India exhibition in Greater Noida. We are again appointed to produce the Show Daily on all five days of the show from 26 to 30 May 2022.
