“This is our second purchase of a flexo press and our repeated business is proof enough of our satisfaction with the Lombardi/Vinsak team towards all aspects of the business. Keeping in mind our highly technical requirements of special units and special applications for the markets we operate in, we find the solutions offered by them give us the best ROI,” Abiram Reddy, the director at Citrus, said.

Citrus Packaging Solutions was established in 2017. 

Reddy said at Citrus, the vision is to be a leader in providing innovative and quality label packaging solutions which will set the benchmark in the industry. “An efficient technical packaging team of highly talented and experienced people. Citrus strives to lead the innovation part of the packaging services to clients throughout India and around the globe.”

He added that the company is dedicated to a total quality system that recognises quality as being conformance and meets any statutory and regulatory requirements that apply to products, processes and activities. According to Citrus the process of continual improvement is achieved by maintaining an atmosphere for knowledge, innovation, training, and team effort throughout their organisation.

While the detailed specifications are confidential as Citrus deals in high quality pharma labels as well as functional labels, Lombardi and Vinsak have created bespoke special units for Citrus for their first as well as the second press. These enable Citrus to produce these labels efficiently with minimum waste. 

“The number of repeat orders that Vinsak has from their customers in India, far outstrips the competition and this is a key matrix that a converter should ask their machine supplier. The average time in years of repeat purchases as well as the % of total customers who have repeated the orders is the highest validation of our product and service,” Mohan Pailwan, vice-president at the Vinsak, said.
