With Nilpeter-Proteck having entered the high end of Indian manufactured presses, local manufacturers now provide a good variety of modern label presses in terms of technology and sophistication.
The Indian manufacturers are Jandu, Multitec, Nilpeter India, RK Engineers, and Webtech.

Multitec has had the strongest showing in the past year with installs both in India and several presses exported to Africa. This year, Multitec will sell the most narrow web label presses of any Indian manufacturer and is likely to double its machine exports.
