- Enormous output: 45 per cent capacity increase expected
- Brilliant finishing thanks to UV equipment and inline coating
- Drastic waste reduction through intelligent automation
The Indian Miracle Group, founded in 2009 by brothers Hemendra, Lokesh, and Amit Agarwal, is transforming the subcontinent’s packaging landscape at record speed. With more than 3,500 employees across eight locations, the company plays a key role in the Indian market. To profitably meet the rising demand for premium packaging, the group commissioned a highly configured Rapida 105 with seven inking units and a coating tower in December 2025. This investment is a direct response to growing market pressure, which demands increasingly shorter delivery times combined with the highest finishing quality.
“Sustained leadership in packaging comes from investing in the right technology, building robust infrastructure and empowering our teams,” said Lokesh Agarwal, Managing Director, 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 optimization – 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 the 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 of the 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 per cent increase in printing capacity, enabling faster deliveries and enhanced consistency for leading brand owners.
A trusted partnership powering the 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.
This installation is part of Miracle Group’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 the Miracle Group’s expansion through local support and technological expertise. The partnership aims to sustainably revolutionize the packaging world through intelligent automation and measurable P&L advantages.
