In the tough time of lockdown, when paper industry is struggling for demand pick-up, new investment in the paper industry is seemed to be a nightmare. In all the segments of paper grades, kraft paper's demand is getting boost due to changed customer behaviour. E-Commerce and FMCG are playing a fruitful role for kraft paper mills. The Corrugated boxes demand have increased multi-fold.   

Exclusively talking to The Pulp and Paper Times, Mr. Piyush Trivedi, Director at Mahadev Craft Papers Pvt.

We have procured all the plant and machinery from D.M. Engineers, Bakrol in Gujarat. We are very glad to sign up with D.M .Engineers for satisfactory services.
