Packtech Tooling: Precision Engineering Learnt From the Factory Floor

Think about the last box you opened.

If it closed cleanly, folded perfectly, and looked sharp, you trusted the product inside.

Packtech Tooling, based in Cape Town and led by Kim Naran, sits at the start of that system.

Packtech Tooling, a specialised manufacturing business based in Cape Town, has built a strong reputation within South Africa’s printing and packaging sector.

Today, the business is headed up by Managing Director Kim Naran, whose leadership reflects decades of hands-on industry experience.
