In a strategic move that underlines Toppan Speciality Films’ commitment to innovation and excellence, the company has announced a significant investment in BOBST technology.

The investment includes the acquisition of three additional BOBST EXPERT K5 Metallizers to be delivered over the next 12 months, marking a substantial expansion of Toppan’s production capabilities.

As of today, Toppan Speciality Films primarily relies on BOBST metallizers for its operations – the purchase of the three new machines means the company is now home to eight BOBST metallizers.

The India-based business, a prominent player in the production of specialty films, label films and graphic lamination films, is poised to enhance its manufacturing capabilities through the integration of the new BOBST metallizers. Toppan Speciality Films CEO and Director, Manohara Kumar, emphasizes the critical role played by their state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in delivering high-quality and innovative packaging solutions to customers. With a strong focus on sustainability-focused packaging alternatives, these metallizers will incorporate value-added features such as AlOx GEN II—a next-generation clear barrier process for mono-material flexible packaging materials—along with AluBond® for improved metal adhesion and dyne levels, as well as the Hawkeye Pinhole Detector. The company’s latest investment in BOBST’s advanced metallizing technology reflects its commitment to continued growth, and to meeting the evolving demands of the Indian packaging industry.

Toppan Specialty Films distinguishes itself through a unique blend of innovation with sustainability, quality leadership, global recognition, product differentiation, commitment to customers, and a strategic approach to partnerships. With ongoing investments in sustainability initiatives, coupled with a commitment to global compliance, Toppan Speciality Films ensures it remains at the forefront of the industry’s transition to a more environmentally focused future.

Toppan Speciality Films’ strategic expansion with BOBST EXPERT K5 Metallizers signifies an exciting and bold step towards operational excellence in the Indian packaging industry. By investing in next-generation BOBST technology to enhance its operational capabilities, Toppan is not only enhancing its production capacity, but also shaping the future of packaging solutions on a global scale.
