“Our investment strengthens Parikh Packaging’s credentials as a leading provider of innovation and service to customers in the Indian subcontinent.”

Constantia Flexibles food division executive vice-president Stefan Grote said: “Our investment strengthens Parikh Packaging’s credentials as a leading provider of innovation and service to customers in the Indian subcontinent.

“Major FMCGs are demanding the highest level of sustainability for their packaging material and they will have to comply with upcoming Indian Plastic Waste Management (PWM) regulations that promote only fully recyclable flexible packaging.”

Scheduled to be available from next year, the additional capacity will allow the company to cater to growing demand from multinational firms in the food and home and personal care (HPC) industries in India.
