"Packaging sector is certainly one of the key markets, which is growing and hence our investment in a new indigenously made press," continued Sharma.
The Noida-based firm manufactures E and B flute corrugated boxes. The Dion is the third multicolour printing press, the other two are presses from Planeta, which produce 60,000 printed paperboard sheets per day.
The firm, which touched the Rs 10-crore turnover, exports its products to countries in Europe and USA.
Sharma has plans for further expansions, but right now they have been kept on hold. "I am waiting for my sons, who are studying their masters in printing and packaging in the US, to return after which I will embark on the plan," said Sharma.
Velsons operates on an 800 sq/metre site with a workforce of 60 persons.
