Earlier Balaji had three presses from Delta, Marcom and Lintec. These machines are running at the firm’s new plant at Narela.

The new press will be placed there. The total combined area for both the plants is 5,400 sq/ft – 1,800 sq/ft for Wazirpur and 3,600 sq/ft for Narela with a staff strength of eight.

Balaji started off as a screen printing facility – migrated to production of brochures, books, tags, leaflets, catalogues, promotional and embossed printing services.

The company has customers from segments like garments, shoes, food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, banks and other sectors.

Anuj Bansal, proprietor, Shree Balaji Printers commented on the new purchase, "Earlier we did all the work manually. Now  we are opting for automation. That’s why we ordered this machine. Our pre-press work is outsourced. But we provide single to six-colour printing with the most advanced of technologies."

Bansal said, "The fruit sector seems new and hot for label printing." He added: "Trained manpower is a big problem in the industry. If this lacunae is sorted out it will be good for the industry."
