KBA Rapida 105 Powers India’s Miracle Group Expansion
Indian packaging solutions provider Miracle Group of Companies has commissioned a highly configured Koenig & Bauer Rapida 105 with seven inking units and a coating tower to profitably meet the rising demand for premium packaging. This investment is a direct response to growing market pressure, which demands increasingly shorter delivery times combined with the highest finishing quality.
Founded in 2009 by brothers Hemendra Agarwal, Lokesh Agarwal, and Amit Agarwal, Miracle Group plays a key role in the Indian packaging market, with more than 3,500 employees across eight locations.
“Sustained leadership in packaging comes from investing in the right technology, building robust infrastructure, and empowering our teams,” says Lokesh Agarwal, Managing Director – Sales & Advertising, Miracle Group. “This upgrade allows us to serve customers with greater speed, precision, and confidence.”
The collaboration with Koenig & Bauer extends beyond equipment to include technical expertise, application support, and long-term performance optimisation – ensuring measurable value for customers and stable growth for the Group.
Technology Transfer Secures Competitive Advantages
The new Rapida 105 is tailored precisely to the complex requirements of Miracle Group. Featuring an enlarged sheet format of 750 x 1,060 mm and a raised press foundation, the system handles even heavy board substrates with ease, even at high speeds. A central lever for profitability is the fully automatic plate changer (FAPC), which consistently converts large portions of set-up time into productive printing time.
“This system is a tool that secures our long-term competitiveness,” explains Amit Agarwal, Managing Director – Operations, Miracle Group. “We are already experiencing more stable production with significantly fewer deviations. The combination of UV technology and inline finishing gives our products a durability and visual brilliance that makes the decisive difference at the point of sale.”
The investment results in an approximate 45% increase in printing capacity, enabling faster deliveries and enhanced consistency for leading brand owners.
Trusted Partnership Powers Future of Packaging
The state-of-the-art machine delivers products with superior brilliance, high surface durability, and a strong visual impact at the point of sale, while intelligent automation significantly reduces setup time, waste, and process variability. This upgrade directly addresses growing market expectations for shorter lead times, repeatable quality, and high-volume reliability.
The installation is part of the Jaipur-based company’s broader strategy of continuous investment in technology and infrastructure, reinforcing its focus on operational excellence and scalable growth.
Koenig & Bauer acts as a ‘trusted advisor’ in this partnership, not only delivering machinery but also securing Miracle Group’s expansion through local support and technological expertise. The partnership aims to sustainably revolutionise the packaging world through intelligent automation and measurable P&L advantages.
