At Printpack India 2025, Wayne Beckett speaks with Sajid, Managing Director of Bindwell, South Asia’s largest manufacturer of binding machines. Bindwell plays a crucial role in India's thriving book industry, with seven out of ten books produced in India utilizing their technology. Based in Bengaluru, the company also exports to Africa and Southeast Asia, offering a full range of binding solutions from single-book production to large-scale textbook manufacturing. The book market in India remains stable and continues to grow, particularly in the educational sector. While the pandemic pushed many institutions toward digital learning, there has been a notable return to printed textbooks, reinforcing the importance of physical books in education. Indian publishers are also expanding their reach, exporting textbooks to Africa, where demand is rising despite challenges like paper availability. Bindwell is not only focusing on domestic growth but also setting its sights on the global market. With innovations such as their "Book of One" and short-run digital binding solutions, the company is preparing to engage with international partners at Hunkeler Innovation Days. Their goal is to explore collaborations that can help shape the future of digital book production in India and beyond. Sajid emphasizes that Bindwell’s presence at Hunkeler Innovation Days is more about building an ecosystem than immediate sales. They aim to engage with potential partners, understand global trends, and ensure that India’s digital print market develops in the right direction. With a strong foundation in India and ambitions for international growth, Bindwell is poised to make an impact in the evolving bookbinding and digital printing landscape.
