The M-22, the machine on display from Mark Enterprise, is used to pack and seal the open mouth of a pinch bottom bag after filling the product. The machine has a continuous linear flow design, which can be configured in either of the two directions, right to left or vice versa, to allow the optimum use of production floor space.
With a 1.85 million square feet manufacturing unit in Mehsana, 50 km from Ahmedabad, the plant is equipped with rotogravure printing presses, tapeline machinery, woven looms, bag converting machinery, ancillary machinery and extrusion, coting and lamination plant.
Diptesh Parekh, general manager – sales and marketing, said, “We have a production capacity of around 3,000 tons per month, manufacturing nearly 10 to 12 lakh bags per day.” The company exports to around 75 countries.
Parekh said the group had launched the Knack Flexipack brand in 2013 to meet the demand for small flexible packaging solutions. Though most of its customers are into bulk packaging, some require small flexible packaging solutions too. To meet that demand, the company launched Knack Flexipack. The sister company manufactures rolls and pouches.

Speaking about the packaging industry’s growth, Parekh noted, “The BOPP bag industry is growing at a rate of around 20-25%.” According to him, the growth is fueled by rising demand for durable, customizable, and sustainable packaging solutions across sectors such as food, agriculture, and industrial goods.
The company is doubling its capacity from 3,000 tons per month to 6,000 tons per month. “We are in the process of doubling our capacity soon, with construction already underway,” he said.
The company filed a draft red herring prospectus with SEBI for an IPO on 4 September 2025 and received approval on 26 December 2025. According to an earlier press release, the IPO will consist of a fresh issue of up to Rs 475 crore and an offer for sale of up to 70 lakh equity shares.
