The company specialises in used Komori and Heidelberg presses, which are imported primarily from Europe and the United States. Once the machinery arrives in India, it undergoes a refurbishment process at the company’s dedicated warehouse before being supplied to printers across the country.
Raval noted that exhibitions like Pamex provide a vital platform for printers to discuss their specific requirements and queries directly with experts. For R Manubhai and Sons, the event is an opportunity to share decades of experience with potential buyers looking for cost-effective alternatives to new machinery.
“The printers get the opportunity to come here and exchange their demands or requirements,” Raval explained. “We are here to help them and share our experience. It is a good platform for the industry.”
Addressing the outlook for 2026, Raval emphasised the necessity of remaining active in what he described as a “24/7 competitive market.” While dealing in pre-owned equipment means the hardware itself is established, the innovation lies in the service, pricing, and quality of the refurbishment.
The company’s strategy for the coming year is built on balancing affordability with high performance. “We try to bring new options to the customers, as well as try to provide the most reasonable rates and the best service we can,” Raval said.
Raval observed that staying ahead of the competition requires a constant awareness of market trends and competitor movements to ensure customers receive the best possible value.
For 2026, the company aims to continue to position refurbished machinery as a viable path for Indian printing houses to upgrade their capabilities with reliable, world-class brands while managing capital expenditure effectively.
