The Indian paper and packaging industry have witnessed significant transformation driven by changing consumer preferences and technological advancements.
The paper sector in India is experiencing a shift toward value-added products and specialised solutions. Companies are increasingly investing in research and development to create innovative packaging solutions that address specific industry needs while maintaining environmental sustainability.

Company Information
Aten Papers & Foam Ltd operate as an important intermediary in the paper product supply chain. As a crucial middleman in the paper product supply chain, it procures paper from different paper mills and resells them to clients in the packaging products industry.
Examples of these products include Kraft Paper and Duplex Board. It also purchases wastepaper from stockists and sells them to paper mills which is crucial raw material for such mills. A wide range of grades, thicknesses, widths, and standards are available in its product portfolio for Kraft papers and Duplex boards and other according to customer specifications.
Aten Papers & Foam Strengths
Variety of Products
Aten Papers & Foam Ltd is a one stop shop to its clientele for their customised paper product supply needs. It procures various types of paper from paper mills, which are used for varied purposes including packaging and printing, which inter-alia includes retail mono packaging boxes and shipper carton manufacturing.
High end kraft paper is used for making paper sacks which are used for handling exports of various products. Paper waste is used for recycling and thereby for making new paper products. It further processes them according to the customer’s specifications.
High Credibility with its Banker and existing lines of Credit since 2019
The paper industry is a highly competitive and fragmented one. Small sized mills usually face cash crunch situations and are willing to give discounts to buyers who are willing to purchase products on a cash basis. Similarly, the end-users of this industry require a high amount of credit.
Hence, the company plays an important role here as a financial intermediary by assisting such mills by giving them a bailout and providing its products to the end users on credit. It has maintained an efficient liquidity and net worth position. Currently it has obtained a credit facility of ₹ 900 lakhs from its bankers. Acting as a financial intermediary gives it leverage and maintains its negotiation power at both ends, leading to increased margins for the company.
In-house logistics
The company has its own in-house commercial vehicles which facilitate door-to-door delivery service to its customers, in order to minimise transportation costs by providing an effective material handling system. It owns four commercial vehicles for this purpose. Transportation mainly includes carrying the products from the paper mills and delivering them to the customers. At times, when needed, it also outsources its transportation-to-transportation agencies.
Ready stock
Stock capacity plays an immensely important role in the paper market. It is stock capacity that one stores that can determine the level of growth. The company keeps ready stock of all the paper, and deals in all the sizes and GSMs with the required amount of quality at its respective warehouse which helps it stay at a stable position throughout the year and also helps it in serving its customers with timely delivery of orders.
