25-year partnership:
Kongsberg Precision and Parksons Packaging

Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems (PCS) and Parksons Packaging are celebrating a 25-year partnership. Parksons Packaging was the first in the region to invest in a digital cutting table from Kongsberg PCS in 2001, to demonstrate the added value of digital cutting technology for the Indian packaging industry.

Parksons Packaging is one of the leading packaging companies in India. Specialising in folding cartons and custom carton packaging for liquids or bespoke rigid cartons, Parksons serves the FMCG, pharmaceutical, food and beverage and healthcare industries. Over the past 25 years, the relationship with Kongsberg has evolved from a traditional supplier-customer relationship to a true partnership. Kongsberg’s digital cutting technology has helped Parksons Packaging to increase productivity and respond flexibly to changing customer requirements.

Ramesh Kejriwal, Chairman of Parksons Packaging, adds: ‘We are very proud to celebrate 25 years of partnership with Kongsberg PCS. Our vision in 2001 was clear: we wanted to build the best folding carton printing and packaging company in India – based on world-class technology and infrastructure. Since we brought the first Kongsberg cutting table for sample making to India, we have worked together to raise the standards of packaging development across the industry and meet the diverse needs of brand owners.’

David Preskett, Vice President EMEA & APAC at Kongsberg Precision Cutting Systems, comments: ‘Parksons Packaging recognised the potential of digital cutting technology at a time when it was still largely unknown in the Indian market. Over the course of 25 years, our relationship has evolved steadily, driven by a shared focus on innovation and excellence. Our technology is just one part of the story. The service, technical expertise and close collaboration of our local team have also been critical to the long-term success of this partnership.’
