UPM Adhesive Materials, a global supplier of innovative self-adhesive label materials, is expanding its footprint in India with a new slitting and distribution terminal near New Delhi. The investment enhances UPM adhesive materials’ service capability in Northern and Eastern India and reinforces its commitment to the entire Indian market.
The Indian economy is expanding rapidly, driven by megatrends such as urbanization, digitalization and infrastructure development. To match the pace of the market, local label converters need reliable label material supply and shorter lead times.
The new terminal will feature advanced slitting capabilities and a tailored label material inventory designed to meet regional customer needs. It complements UPM adhesive materials’ Mumbai terminal, opened in February 2024, extending service across the country.
”We are excited to strengthen our presence in India with a new terminal near New Delhi. This investment supports the growth ambitions of our customers in the Northern and Eastern regions and deepens our engagement with the dynamic Indian market,” says Harri Janhunen, vice president, strategy, India & Middle East, UPM Adhesive Materials.
The terminal is expected to begin operation during Q3 2026.
