At the same time, businesses are navigating increasing sustainability mandates, including Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) norms, alongside rising input and logistics costs. The industry is moving decisively towards automation, smart technologies, and circular packaging solutions, with growing investments in digital manufacturing and supply chain optimization. As demand for sustainable and efficient packaging accelerates across sectors, it is imperative for businesses to stay agile and future-ready.
