Renald Arokia DSS

With over three decades of hands-on experience in the print and packaging industry, I specialize in transforming creative concepts into production-ready solutions that meet the highest standards of quality and efficiency. My career spans leadership roles in prepress operations, packaging design, and workflow optimization across India, UAE, and Saudi Arabia.

I thrive at the intersection of creativity and technology—whether integrating Kodak CTP systems, deploying GMG proofing for color accuracy, or mentoring cross-functional teams in modern prepress techniques. My approach is rooted in precision, collaboration, and continuous improvement, ensuring every project not only meets but exceeds expectations.
