v      Plain & PVdC Coated Pharma & Food Grade Rigid PVC Film

v      Pharma & Food Grade Triplex Composite Films

v      A-PET Film

v      Cold Form Blister

v      Rigid PVC Film (General Purpose)

v      Vinyl Film for Signage, and

v      Self Adhesive PVC Tapes

 

 

Aside from the Pharmaceutical & Food industries, these products are also used for general purpose applications such as vacuum forming for the packaging of industrial products, Fold Moulding for production of boxes, metalizing, printing, decoration and lamination, and in the Signage Industry for banners, hoardings and billboards. Their tapes are used for both stationery and packaging applications

 

ATL has a wide product range, replete with world-class products at competitive prices.

They offer a complete range of material for packaging pharmaceutical, food and industrial products, as well as for other applications.

For the outdoor signage industry, they offer Vinyl film for signage.

And for general packaging applications, they manufacture Self Adhesive PVC Tape.

At ATL, they are proud of their commitment to quality. Quality of the product design. Quality of their manufacturing. And, quality of their after-sales service. This is the key that enables they to meet the demanding and ever-changing needs of their customers


A measure of this commitment to quality is their ISO9000 certification.


From a control on the quality of inputs for their production, to a firm grip on the quality of the end products, the company’s quality assurance philosophy involves a judicious blend of technical expertise and sophisticated instrumentation, as also total commitment of each employee to ensure that products that bear the mark of “ATL” stand up to the scrutiny of world quality standards.


In their manufacturing facilities, they are well on their way to replicating the “Clean Air” environment of their Pharma customers, by installing the most sophisticated air filtration and air conditioning methods. Ensuring that they are truly a part of “Pharma Culture”.


Both manufacture and use of their packaging material is complex. While they have total control of manufacturing, it is the customer who is the ultimate proof of the quality of the product. Therefore, they ensure a close interaction with their customers, to allow them to tap the depth of their experience with the usage of their products.


At one level, this customer interaction is achieved by their technical teams visiting the customers. This allows them to see first-hand the machine settings and the conditions of storage and usage of their material and customise their products to meet specific requirements of the customer.


At another level, customer interaction is achieved by customers visiting their manufacturing facilities. This allows them to tap customer experience by taking suggestions on specific improvements in raw material, manufacturing, testing, storage and transportation.


Quality is an ongoing process. And at Amartara, they are constantly adapting to new requirements, innovating new solutions and adopting the best industry practices, to bring their customers reliable products. Always!

 

Amartara’s manufacturing plant at Mumbai is equipped with the latest machinery.


Modern manufacturing practices are followed in the entire production process, right from the selection of raw materials, to the packing of finished products.


In their manufacturing facilities, they are well on their way to replicating the “Clean Air” environment of their Pharma customers, by installing the most sophisticated air filtration and air conditioning methods. Ensuring that they are truly a part of “Pharma Culture”.


Environment consciousness is an integral part of the Amartara philosophy. They ensure that their processes are pollutant free and where necessary, they have installed waste recovery and pollution control systems.


Their Quality Control Laboratory is equipped with state-of-art instruments to ensure high quality at every stage of production.

The products are manufactured with precisely determined characteristics through the use of integrated process control.

Their technical expertise enables them to offer custom made solutions.


They firmly believe that continuous product development is the path to consistent growth. They therefore continually keep their selves abreast of new developments in their industry world-wide, and adapt new technologies that are best suited to their customers’ requirements.
