Individually both Films and Packaging Businesses also grew at 7% each. Owing to the fully backward integrated capabilities of our business and the rate at which we are coming up with bespoke value-added flexible packaging solutions and specialty films for our clients globally the demand for our products will only get better hereon. This coupled up with Asepto our liquid packaging material brand will further improve the bottom-line in the times to come.”
