Jagdeep Hira, India Business Head, Pakka said, “For more than four decades, we have been working toward our vision to make the earth cleaner. Last year, we forayed into compostable flexible packaging in association with a brand, hence, expanding our product range was a natural progression. There is a huge demand for flexible packaging in the food industry. With our new offerings, we are ensuring that we offer businesses and consumers a variety of compostable packaging solutions. This will not just serve the purpose of flexible packaging, it will be a step toward reducing packaging waste.”
