Head of Sales and Marketing
The gravure printing process is initiated by
the image being engraved into a copper
cylinder, followed by a chroming of the
cylinder. The cylinder then rotates in a bath of
ink. As the cylinder rotates the excess ink is
wiped off the cylinder by a flexible steel
doctor blade. The ink remains in the recessed
cells (engraved area) and then directly
transfers to the substrate (paper, PET, PVC,
OPP or other materials) as it passes between
the cylinder and the impression roller.
GRAVURE PRINTINGIS THE MARKET LEADER IN IMAGE QUALITY PROCESSES
The advantage of gravure printing is that it lays
down a high quantity of ink; which ultimately
results in a high quality, sharp, fine image.
Gravure printing’s high image qualities are due to
the excellent density, gradation control and
metallic ink appearance that gravure printing
allows. A rotogravure cylinder has a long service
life and will yield a very large number of impres-
sions without degradation of image quality.

Managing employee turnover is a challenge for organizations, as different organizations
using different tactic to retain employees. Retention is considered as all-around module of
an organization’s human resource strategies. It starts with the recruiting of right people and
continues with the programs to keep the employee engage, motivated and committed to the
organization.
Today’s workers expect a lot from the employer and by providing a prolific, flexible and
dynamic work environment can be a critical move in attracting and retaining valuable
employees.
It is pivotal to realize the varying needs and expectation for developing an effective
retention plan and for business processes to incorporate retention strategies in proper
manner otherwise all the efforts since recruitment will be a failure.

PROCESS INOVATION
SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT
Outsourcing, lean manufacturing,
Just in time inventory While some of the
best business strategies in the world can
help minimize the cost and free you to
focus competencies, these strategies also
may stretch your supply chain to its
breaking point. Without realizing it, your
company best intention to become a fierce
competitor can leave your company
vulnerable. Over the last decade many
companies faced extreme supply chain
challenges that stretched their capabilities
to the breaking point. Due to its global
nature and systematic impact on the firm’s
financial performance, the supply chain
arguably faces more risks than other areas
of the company, whether its dealing with
Quality and safety challenges, simply
shortages, legal issues, security problems,
regulatory and environmental
compliances, weather and natural
disasters or terrorism. There is always
some elements of risks. The risk is driven
by supply chain executives who often find
themselves at the center of daily storm,
striving to balance very demanding
operational objectives while satisfying
customers, cutting cost and helping grow
revenue. They must deliver result today
while working on capabilities that will make
their companies competitive in the future.
Supply chain professionals have to deal
with the unexpected day to day
challenges some are as follows:
• Customer demand changes
• Problems at supplier which delay
critically needed components.
• Warehouse shortage that causes
serious delays in customer shipments.
• Production problems
• Theft is a big concern

Process innovation is the fundamental and
rational design of the activity to achieve
dramatic improvement in contemporary
measures of performance such as cost,
quality, quantity, service and speed. Process
innovation emphasizes in entire process
rather than tuning frictional part. There is
more emphasis on workforce and the
approach may involve rethinking the entire
process and its objective rather than
focusing on individual process. Innovation
can be applied to products, processes and
designs and is aimed at the development of
new core competences as a response to
market action. The development of capabili-
ties over the process is seen as pace of
innovation.
Increasing sophistication of demand and
level of competition has led to innovate
becoming a threshold competence itself. The
idea that “What is good today, Will not be so
tomorrow” has never been so relevant.
Innovation can be used to reduce cost,
provide basis for efficiency, add value,
achieve premier target and create
competitiveness in work force.
These can be done via certain organizational
dimensions mainly Structure, Culture,
Leadership, People and communication. In a
precise way should be flexible to avoid hot
of initiative should see failure as a learning
experience and to be expected to lead the
forces via communication the team-based
approach creating ownership along with
participation and creating awareness within
the workforce. These dimensions are core
elements of process innovation because
these are integrated to human behavior
Therefore, Process innovation has the
framework for assessing the priority for
investment. At first, identify processes that
are suitable for innovation. Secondly, identify
change lever. Thirdly, develop processes
visions. At fourth, understand and improve
existing processes. At fifth, design and
prototype new processes.

I joined this organization on
1st Jan 2011 as an operator-lamination machine.
At that time it was only a floor. Production started after 2 months of my joining. It was the positive intention of
employer and with the team efforts that company started moving in the positive direction.
Workers were not left behind. Every one of us was given courage to move up in the hierarchy. Our policy to
promote from within the organization giving every worker equal chances for career growth. I can be referred
as an example of this, when I joined, I was only an operator and now I am an Assistant Production Director.
What I believe if you work with honesty and dedication success will be yours. Obviously, parent prayer and
Bosses like ours is a must.
Because of this policy there are so many who has joined this company as labor, loader and helper are now
operator and Assistant operator.
I am proud of Universal Packaging Company (Pvt.) Ltd and pray for its growth and
success. (Ameen)
I commenced my challenging and exciting journey with Universal Packaging Company (Pvt)
Ltd in mid-2013 with an academic background of MBA in business and Finance. My company
has enabled me to fulfill my need of perpetual professional development and learning
opportunities to an optimum level.
Printing and Packaging Industry of Pakistan has its own charms, risks and dynamic business
side. I believe that Pakistan has a number of important customers in all the business
segments like FMCGs, Pharmaceutical etc. Similarly, converters like Universal Packaging are
in the continuous search of ways to create comprehensive value–creating solutions to serve
the exponential marketing needs of Packaging in all the aspects for our esteemed customers.
World packaging market can be observed statistically in the following bar chart:
Market development is always linked significantly with Packaging. Packaging of products can
increase customer satisfaction, enhance visibility and set one product apart from its competi-
tion. In essence, packaging plays a pivotal role in the branding process of the product,
attracting customers and providing customers what they are looking for when they take the
product home. Packaging can help sell the product by sharing information such as nutritional
values, usage, size, measurements and lastly customers can identify the products or
companies they are loyal to.
My first day at Universal Packaging was 18th March, 2013. At that time I was bit confused to join or not, but now
I must say that I made an excellent decision. The respect, trust and care that I received from my Boss and
colleagues are remarkable.
I am given with opportunity to excel and learn with appreciation and recognition. An environment where I can
use my skills and abilities.
I am given with opportunity to work as an acting Head of Finance department while discharging my
responsibilities; I gained lot of knowledge and experience. Huge amount of decision making was involved, and
that really has enhanced my leadership and analytical skills.
I am thankful to my company, my C.E.O, my director and my colleagues
for always giving a supportive hand to me.
