Homemade Bakers’ buys its third Nilpeter

Homemade Bakers’, based in Sonepat near New Delhi, has ordered its third Nilpeter printing press at LabelExpo India 2016. Labels&Labeling reports.

Rajiv Manchanda, director at Homemade Bakers’, after ringing the bell at the show floor, said, “We are a baker converted to a printer and a laminator. We laminate paper and aluminium foil in-house for making cones and print about four tons of foil every day. Ours is a seasonal business, but we are running full capacity in summer, so we needed another press for the next season.”

The baking company that makes biscuit cones for ice creams for most brands in the country is spread in an area of 15,000 sq. ft. and uses food grade inks for its printing process. The company has outsourced its press and uses sleeve rolling machines for finishing.

Manish Kapoor, Sales Manager at Nilpeter India, said, “Homemade Bakers’ has been a long term partner with us, and Nilpeter is very happy to be associated with them, especially for the unique application that they have for narrow-web flexo presses.”

Growing at 30 percent in printing and cone making business, the company has been buying a press every year in order to keep up with the growth. The 8-colour flexo press will be installed at the factory by January 2017.
