We have a great customer story to share. This week we look at Sal Papers Private Limited, a leading Indian manufacturer of label stock, release liners and specialty films. Sal Papers needed to optimize their adhesive and coating process. So they turned to NDC Technologies for a coat weight measurement system solution. And in a short time, they realized a significant return investment. Here's the story.
About Sal Papers
Sal Papers started operations in 1997 and has grown the label stock and release liner business multifold under the supervision of Mr. Kamal Kant Jain, Mr. Shashi Kant Jain and Mr. Ayush Jain. Sal Papers has invested in modern technology and equipment across all areas of its operations.
The Sal Papers brand name is Dubble and it offers an unparalleled portfolio of products, services and capabilities. The company combines global expertise and local experience in a fully integrated, quality-focused organization.
How NDC Optimized the Coating Process
Sal Paper needed to monitor and accurately, reliably control the coat weight levels of the web during the adhesive coating process. NDC offered an IR-based, fixed-point coat weight measurement system with the flexibility of manually sliding across the web width. The solution included NDC’s ConvertIR gauge. Sal Paper invested in the first NDC gauge for water-based coat weight measurement back in 2019. After realizing exceptional results, Sal Paper invested in two more NDC gauges for its water-based and hot melt coat weight measurement systems in 2020 and 2021.
“We invested in NDC IR coat weight measurement systems for our water-based and hot melt coating line operations, as we believe in setting benchmarks in quality rather than just meeting the standards.” — Mr. Shashi Kant Jain, CEO Sal Papers Pvt Ltd.
Realizing the Return on Value
Since the initial investment, Sal Paper has realized numerous benefits such as enhanced productivity, reduction in scrap, reduction in change-over time and no over or under coat weight situations. All of which help to build a better product for their consumers across the globe. All of Sal Paper’s installations are backed by NDC’s dedicated worldwide customer service organization available 24/7 via the myNDC service cloud.
"The NDC coat weight measurement system enables us to achieve excellent product quality, reduced start-up times, adhesive savings, increased productivity and provides the ultimate peace of mind." — Mr. Ayush Jain, Director Sal Paper Pvt Ltd.
