Two Mumbai facilities. German offset presses, Computer-to-Plate pre-press, in-house finishing and binding. Mono carton conversion line (Maxima die-cutter + Acme folder-gluer) installed 2023. Commercial printing since 1962.
Arun Art Printers was founded in Mumbai in 1962 and has run commercial printing continuously since. The Sion facility dates from 1975. Children's book printing was added as a dedicated line in 2004. The mono carton conversion line — a Maxima die-cutter and Acme folder-gluer — was installed in 2023 and is operated by the same plant team that runs our presses.
What runs on the floor, what each line is rated for, and what we do not currently offer. Procurement teams should treat this as a starting reference and ask us for substrate or finish confirmations specific to their RFQ.
