Automotive components, chemicals, DIY products, household appliances, sporting goods…the list of industries and manufacturers that need to package and ship their products reliably and efficiently is virtually endless.

In the recent turn of events, there has been an increase of INR 5000 per tonne of kraft paper within a very short span of 10 days. The mills say that further increase should be expected in the coming days, said the Federation of Corrugated Box Manufacturers of India (FCBM) in a release.
