Sandon Global reinforces commitment to India’s flexible packaging market at FILMS 2026 in Mumbai

Sandon Global will exhibit at FILMS 2026 – the 13th Speciality Films & Flexible Packaging Global Summit & Exhibition on 26-27 August 2026 at the Jio World Convention Centre, Mumbai, reinforcing its long-term commitment to India’s rapidly expanding flexible packaging market. 

Recognised as the world’s largest films and flexible packaging summit and exhibition, FILMS 2026 will bring together more than 2,500 industry leaders from across the global packaging supply chain, providing an ideal platform for knowledge sharing, networking and the latest technology developments. 

Visitors to the Sandon Global stall will have the opportunity to discuss the latest advances in anilox technology and how they can improve print quality, process consistency, production efficiency and waste reduction across a wide range of flexible packaging applications. 

A key focus for this year’s event will be supporting converters as they evaluate the transition from rotogravure to CI flexographic printing. Drawing on extensive international experience, Sandon Global will demonstrate how selecting the correct anilox specification can help deliver predictable ink transfer, stable press performance and repeatable print quality throughout the conversion process. 

The company will showcase its portfolio of advanced engraving technologies, including XPRO, HVP, Fluid FP and GMX Anilox®, each engineered to address specific print and coating requirements. From ultra-high-definition graphics and high-opacity whites to specialist coatings and combination work, Sandon’s anilox solutions are designed to help converters achieve consistent results while maximising production efficiency. 

Tinku Sharma, Regional Sales Manager for India, Middle East and Africa, said, “India continues to be one of our most important growth markets. The summit and exhibition hosted by Elite Plus provides an excellent opportunity to meet converters, brand owners and industry partners, understand the challenges they are facing, and share practical solutions that improve print performance, efficiency and process control.” 

Sustainability will also remain a key theme throughout the event, as packaging producers continue to adopt recyclable and mono-material structures while maintaining demanding print quality standards. Sandon Global’s precision-engineered anilox technologies support these objectives by enabling accurate, repeatable ink transfer, helping reduce waste, minimise ink consumption and improve overall press efficiency. 

The company also believes the implementation of the UK-India Free Trade Agreement creates further opportunities for collaboration, innovation and technology exchange between the two countries, supporting continued investment in India’s flexible packaging industry. 

Sandon Global looks forward to welcoming visitors throughout the two-day event and discussing how its technical expertise and advanced anilox solutions can help optimise flexographic printing performance.
