Akhtari began in 1967 as a small Pettah trading store and has grown into one of Sri Lanka's most established flexible packaging manufacturers. The homepage outlines the markets Akhtari serves — confectionery, FMCG, tea and coffee, pharmaceuticals, snacks, beverages, coconut and spices, and gloves/protective wear — with each market description noting the specific packaging challenges (heat/humidity resistance, barrier protection, compliance, high-speed line compatibility). It also highlights three "commitment" pillars: sustainability (recycled content, rooftop solar), quality (ISO certification, fast turnarounds), and nearly six decades of manufacturing expertise. A "Where We're Located" section frames Sri Lanka's position on major shipping lanes and notes the factory sits about 20km from the port and 15km from the airport. The page links out to About Us, Products, Sustainability, and Contact Us. ### Food Packaging Company in Asia (About Us) Source: https://akhtarigroup.com/about-us/ Description: Company history and timeline for Akhtari Group, from its 1967 founding as a Colombo polythene reseller through ISO certification, printing upgrades, and solar power adoption.

The company achieved ISO 9001:2008 certification in 2010, added a 9-color gravure printing facility in 2013, upgraded to CI Flexo printing in 2018, invested in a state-of-the-art R&D lab in 2024, and installed rooftop solar power in 2025.

On the operations side, the company runs a rooftop solar system, an on-site rainwater harvesting system with over 50,000-liter capacity that is reused daily in the factory, and sends unavoidable waste to a waste-to-energy facility rather than landfill. ### Contact | Packaging Manufacturer (Contact Us) Source: https://akhtarigroup.com/contact-us/ Description: Contact page with an inquiry form and Akhtari's Kandana factory address, phone numbers, and email addresses for general and export queries.
