List of Packaging Companies In India (15 choices)

China is hard to compete with when sourcing suppliers for all kinds of products, however, India is an emerging option for products and services that China used to corner the market in such as PCBs and plastic injection molding. For those needing packaging, retail boxes, tape, plastic wrap, etc, packaging companies in India are also an increasingly attractive option, so let’s explore some companies and their features to help get your sourcing started.

A quick introduction to packaging and sourcing it from India

We often tell our customers:

When developing and manufacturing your new product, don’t forget its packaging!

Packaging should be an important consideration for importers. After all, it can be the difference between receiving a container load of scrap or products in perfect condition, or making sales due to attractive, good quality packaging, or missing out due to cheap-looking packaging that doesn’t do your product justice.

Because packaging often needs to be designed to your specification, finding suitable packaging suppliers is a sourcing activity that should be taken seriously. Leaving it until the last minute risks turning the packaging into an afterthought that could lead to product damage or, at least, delays to an order that’s ready to ship while it’s designed and produced.

When discussing packaging, we’re talking about:

• Shipping packaging (heavy cartons, wooden crates, tough plastic boxes)
• Retail packaging (nicer quality packaging such as rigid card boxes, often printed and bought by the consumer)
• Inner packaging (plastic blisters, kraft paper, bubble wrap, etc)
• Accessories (these are items like packing tape)

The good news is that all of these items of packaging can be obtained in India!

Just in case you’re still unsure of the benefits of choosing the correct packaging, here is a list from our popular resource 9 Types of Packaging (Benefits, Costs, Sustainability, and more) – Guide for Importers:

• Packaging provides physical protection from damage that can be caused by many circumstances, such as extreme temperatures, electrostatic discharge, vibration, dropping, and other kinds of impact, such as being crushed. In addition, it will prevent contamination by things like dust and humidity which can also harm electronics.
• Offers helpful containment for the many small items and accessories that commonly come with today’s consumer products, such as a mobile phone.
• Gives your goods a line of defense against tampering in case anyone tries to get into them during transit and delivery.
• Helps distribution and warehousing staff by incorporating elements such as a handle or a shape that lends itself to stacking.
• In some cases, the packaging may have a premium design and finish, which reflects well on the vendor with the customer (think Apple’s packaging). It may also be created from sustainable materials that are ever more important to many of today’s consumers and also has an influence on their perception of the vendor.

Can packaging be sourced from India instead of China?

Some Indian companies have the raw materials and the equipment needed for packaging production and there is no fundamental reason why Chinese sources would come with a lower price, so there’s no reason to rely on China for packaging unless your entire supply chain is already there making proximity helpful.

As you’ll see, there are packaging companies in India that provide nearly all kinds of packaging, from basic to complex.
