Future-ready printing: Noble Printing Press expands capacity with dual Speedmaster CX 104 installations from HEIDELBERG

Noble Printing Press, one of India’s most respected names in print and packaging, has significantly expanded its production capabilities with the installation of two Speedmaster CX 104 presses from HEIDELBERG: one at its Baddi plant in North India and the other at its Kohinoor Printers unit in Puducherry, South India.

These strategic investments reinforce Noble’s commitment to automation, sustainability, and scalable growth, while highlighting the global success of the Speedmaster CX 104 platform from HEIDELBERG.

Founded in 1954, Noble Printing Press has grown from a small family-run operation into a multi-location enterprise with facilities spanning Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Baddi, Vapi, and Puducherry across India. Known for its excellence in commercial, packaging, and specialty print, the company continues to lead with innovation and customer trust.

“Our journey has always been about more than machines — it’s about creating lasting impressions and building trust with every client we serve", says Vijay Chamaria, Director at Noble Printing Press. "The Speedmaster CX 104 from HEIDELBERG reflects our vision of blending legacy with innovation to ensure growth that is both responsible and future-ready.”

Expanding capacity across India

In 2024, Noble’s Kohinoor Printers unit in Puducherry installed the Speedmaster CX 104-6+L from HEIDELBERG, dedicated exclusively to FMCG (fast-moving consumer goods) packaging. The press strengthens Kohinoor’s leadership in printed mono cartons, fluted cartons, and metallic printed cartons for domestic and export markets.

In 2025, the Baddi plant added a Speedmaster CX 104-7+L from HEIDELBERG, which has already delivered measurable improvements in makeready times, waste reduction, and throughput. With this investment, Noble is better equipped to meet rising demand for packaging and commercial printing with faster turnarounds and consistently superior quality.

“Both our Baddi and Puducherry plants cater to a diverse set of requirements — from special applications to high-quality export jobs. The Speedmaster CX 104 from HEIDELBERG has consistently delivered on every front, giving us the flexibility, reliability, and performance we need to serve our customers with confidence,” said Parag Chamaria, Director at Noble Printing Press.

Proven global platform from HEIDELBERG

With over 6,100 units sold worldwide, the Speedmaster CX 104 from HEIDELBERG is one of the company’s most successful presses, known for its versatility, performance, and sustainability. Globally, customers print more than 11 billion sheets annually on Speedmaster CX 104 presses, with leading printers achieving up to 42 million sheets per year.

The Speedmaster CX 104 from HEIDELBERG integrates cutting-edge technologies including Push-to-Stop autonomous printing, AutoPlate Pro, AI-assisted systems, and Prinect Inpress Control. These innovations work together to streamline operations, minimize human intervention, and deliver exceptional consistency in color and register across every job.

A true HEIDELBERG House

For Noble Printing Press, automation is more than a productivity tool — it’s a way to empower its workforce. By eliminating repetitive tasks, employees are free to focus on creativity, precision, and customer service. As a family-run business, Noble places strong emphasis on training and skill development to ensure smooth integration of modern technologies across its operations.

A true HEIDELBERG house, Noble’s production floor features a robust lineup of presses including Speedmaster SM 74, CD 74, CD 102, SX 102, and XL 75 models from HEIDELBERG. The company has recently expanded its finishing and quality control capabilities with the addition of the MK Easymatrix die-cutter and MK 55 inspection systems.

In its labelling division, Noble continues to lead with Gallus presses from HEIDELBERG, reinforcing its commitment to excellence across both offset and flexographic printing platforms. This complements their offset and packaging capabilities, allowing them to serve a broader range of industries — including FMCG (fast-moving consumer goods), pharmaceuticals, and export packaging — with precision and versatility.

Commitment to sustainability

Sustainability remains a key driver behind Noble’s investment. The Speedmaster CX 104 from HEIDELBERG is engineered to reduce energy consumption and minimize waste, bringing makeready sheets down to as few as 55. This efficiency supports Noble’s commitment to environmentally responsible growth.

“The Speedmaster CX 104 from HEIDELBERG is a game-changer,” said Parag Chamaria. “Its ability to reduce waste and energy consumption aligns perfectly with our sustainability goals and, more importantly, it reinforces the trust our customers place in us to deliver responsibly and efficiently.”

Looking ahead

Beyond technology, Noble continues to invest in its people and processes. Initiatives such as training, color management standardization, and exploration of Prinect multicolor for extended gamut printing are part of its roadmap for future growth.

As Noble Printing Press celebrates over seventy years of excellence, the installation of two Speedmaster CX 104 presses from HEIDELBERG and MK Masterwork postpress solutions across its Indian production network marks a milestone of ambition and achievement. For HEIDELBERG, it stands as yet another testament to how leading printers worldwide are embracing the Speedmaster CX 104 to drive efficiency, sustainability, and long-term competitiveness.
