The international packaging manufacturer with headquarters in Heidenheim, Baden-Württemberg, is strengthening its global production network with another production facility in Asia. This is Edelmann’s next step in cementing its presence in the second most dynamic packaging market in the world, after Latin America. According to a recent study conducted by international market research firm Smithers Pira, the packaging industry in Asia will grow by 4.5% per year between 2009 and 2015. That is almost twice as fast as growth in the international packaging market during that same period, which is just 2.6%.
The new Edelmann India facility is located in the north, in the state of Himachal Pradesh. Last year its 250 employees generated revenues of approximately 6 million euros. Production focuses on high-end packaging made of board for the beauty care and healthcare segments. The company manufactures its products in line with international standards, such as ISO 9001, UGRA and PSO. As at all of the other production sites in this international Group, Edelmann India will subscribe to the company’s “High Q Packaging” quality promise.
