Redington, The Printer House join forces

Redington and New Delhi-based The Printer House have entered into a strategic partnership where Redington will market and service The Printer House’s Orient L&P series digital inkjet press.

The alliance pairs Redington’s scale and reach with TPH’s homegrown engineering expertise. Under the agreement, Redington will manage sales, service, and consumable support for the Orient L&P range, a move that signals its strategic expansion beyond commercial print into packaging, an area that is seeing a surge in demand for shorter runs and faster turnarounds.

According to Ramesh KS, vice-president of digital printing at Redington, the collaboration is an important milestone in strengthening the company’s digital print portfolio. “Through this partnership, we are proud to represent a high-quality Indian press that embodies innovation, sustainability, and adaptability,” he says.

The Orient L&P press represents a milestone for Indian engineering in the digital domain. Built at TPH’s Ballabgarh plant, it uses Konica Minolta industrial printheads and UV inkjet technology to achieve high-speed, high-resolution printing on a variety of substrates. The series incorporates a proprietary ink delivery system currently under patent, designed to optimise ink use and deliver consistent print quality across runs.

During Drupa 2024 and later at PrintPack India 2025, The Printer House (TPH) made a strong statement about the direction of Indian printing. Its PrintPack stand in Hall 14 was crowded with visitors drawn to the Orient Jet L&P Series. 

For Rishab Kohli, managing director of The Printer House, the Orient L&P line is a reflection of the company’s commitment to the next generation of printing. “The growth in digital inkjet is reshaping how converters think about production. With demand for short runs and customisation growing, we see the L&P press as a crucial step in bridging traditional and digital printing for packaging converters.”

For Redington, which partners with more than 450 global brands across 40 markets, this collaboration is a step towards enabling local innovation on a global scale. The company’s move into the label and packaging segment aligns with its focus on bridging the gap between technology innovation and real-world adoption.

With the Orient L&P series, TPH and Redington have positioned themselves at the centre of India’s digital packaging transformation. “The message is clear: the future of packaging print in India will not only be powered by digital but also built in India,” concluded Kohli.
