Micro Fab Industries is set to commission a state-of-the-art 300 Tonnes Per Day (TPD) Fluting & Test Liner machine at its upcoming facility in Kathua, Jammu, marking a significant milestone for North India’s recycled packaging paper segment.

The new machine will manufacture high-performance fluting and test liner grades within a GSM range of 80–300 GSM, catering to the growing demand from corrugation and packaging manufacturers across the region.

Project Highlights:

  • Capacity: 300 Tonnes Per Day

  • Products: Fluting & Test Liner

  • GSM Range: 80–300 GSM

  • Segment: Recycled-based corrugation paper

  • Location: Kathua, Jammu (Strategic North India location)

Designed with advanced technology and operational efficiency in mind, the machine is engineered to deliver:

  • High Burst Factor (BF) strength consistency

  • Optimized steam and power consumption

  • Stable cross-direction (CD) profile across the GSM range

  • Superior reel quality suitable for high-speed corrugation plants

The commissioning of this project represents a significant industrial boost for the Jammu region. Beyond strengthening North India’s packaging-grade paper supply chain, the facility is expected to generate local employment opportunities and support the region’s expanding manufacturing ecosystem.

With increasing demand for recycled-based packaging materials driven by sustainability initiatives and e-commerce growth, this new installation positions Micro Fab Industries as a key contributor to the region’s corrugation and packaging industry.
