Siegwerk, a leading global supplier of printing inks for packaging applications and labels, has announced plans for a new blending centre in the Dhaka region in Bangladesh.

The centre is expected to start operation in the fourth quarter of 2019. With this expansion, the company strengthens its domestic business in the country while extending its position across the overall Asian region.

“We have established a good customer base with sustainable growth in Bangladesh. We now want to get closer to our customers supporting them more effectively with individually formulated ink solutions which match their local printing requirements,” said Ashish Pradhan, CEO, Siegwerk India.

Currently, inks are imported from Siegwerk’s plant in India. Going forward, the centre will blend solvent and water-based inks, as well as UV and conventional offset inks directly in Bangladesh.

Siegwerk, based in Siegburg near Cologne, is one of the leading international manufacturers of printing inks and individual solutions for packaging, labels, and catalogues with more than 180 years of experience.
