Role Summary

This role is responsible for ensuring that raw materials, work-in-progress, and finished goods — including PE-coated/laminated paper, paper cups, plates, and other packaging products — meet defined quality standards, specifications, and customer requirements at every stage of the converting process.

Key Responsibilities

Raw Material Inspection

- Inspect and test incoming raw materials, including base paper, PE granules/resin, inks, adhesives, and other packaging inputs
- Verify GSM, moisture content, and supplier certificates/COAs prior to releasing materials for production
- Identify and flag/reject non-conforming materials in line with SOPs

In-Process Quality Checks

- Monitor the PE extrusion coating/lamination process, checking coating thickness (GSM), adhesion strength, gloss, and uniformity
- Carry out periodic checks during printing, slitting, cutting, and converting operations
- Identify defects such as pinholes, uneven coating, delamination, print misregistration, and web breaks
- Ensure machine parameters — temperature, speed, and tension — remain within specified limits

Finished Goods Inspection

- Test finished products for seal strength, leak-proof performance (for cups/containers), dimensional accuracy, and visual quality
- Conduct sample testing, including burst strength, tensile strength, Cobb test (water absorbency), and heat seal strength
- Approve or reject batches prior to dispatch based on quality parameters
- Maintain quality records, inspection reports, and batch traceability

Documentation & Compliance





- Maintain QC checklists, inspection reports, and non-conformance reports (NCRs)
- Ensure compliance with applicable standards such as FSSAI, ISO, and BRC for food-grade packaging
- Support internal and external audits (ISO 9001, FSSAI, customer audits)
- Maintain calibration records for testing instruments

Customer Complaint Handling

- Investigate quality-related customer complaints
- Coordinate with the production team on corrective and preventive actions (CAPA)
- Track and close non-conformances within defined timelines

Coordination

- Work closely with production, R&D;, and dispatch teams to resolve quality issues
- Train shop-floor operators on quality standards and defect identification

Key Skills & Requirements

- Diploma or degree in Paper Technology, Packaging Technology, Polymer/Plastics Technology, or Mechanical/Chemical Engineering
- 2–5 years of QC experience in paper converting, PE coating/lamination, or flexible packaging
- Proficiency with testing equipment such as GSM testers, thickness gauges, seal strength testers, Cobb testers, and tensile testers
- Familiarity with FSSAI/food-grade packaging norms (for food-contact products)
- Solid attention to detail and analytical ability
- Working knowledge of ISO 9001/BRC quality systems
- Good communication and documentation skills
