Gautam Paper Udhyog, which consumes around 3.5-metric tonnes of paper and four tons of UV varnish inks, caters to customers from Surat, Ahmedabad and Rajkot in Gujarat; Mumbai, Bhiwandi, Ratlam, Kolkata, Mathura, and Varanasi.

“We have earned a good reputation as a quality saree box manufacturer following the value addition work we did using the first Grafica cylinder press, which we purchased in 2010. It raised the bar for quick delivery, prompting the need for one more installation,” said, Jitendra Modi, CEO and managing director at Gautam Paper.
