“We admire the machine performance for its top-notch quality with unparallel speed of 400 m/min and uptime performance. The HELIOSTAR printing machine exceeds all our expectations from world’s leading supplier W&H.” Md. Harun Or Rashid (Sr. GM, Meghna Group)

The history of one of Bangladesh’s largest leading conglomerates, Meghna Group of Industries (MGI) can be traced back to 1976 when its predecessor operated under the name of Kamal Trading Company. The secret to the success and vast expansion of MGI has been diversification and the group has entered a broad array of different markets and industries. The product range of MGI today is truly impressive for its products under the recognizable brand names of “Fresh”, “No.1”, “Actifit”, “Pure” and “Meghnacem Deluxe”.

“With the HELIOSTAR installation, we have set the precedent for high capacity presses of 400 m/min and above with fast job changeovers. Our Rotogravure presses are capable of handling highly critical applications - with high precise register accuracy for demanding substrates and low contrast ink and varnishes.” - Mr. Anuj Sahni (GM-Sales & Marketing, W&H India)

THE HELIOSTAR II is considered the most advanced press available in the market today.
