About Sivakasi Institute of Printing Technology

SIVAKASI, the town well known through out India as "Little Japan" is famous for its Match factories, Fireworks and Printing Industries. The first Printing press in Sivakasi was started in 1942 and to promote and to protect the handful of Printing units, The Sivakasi Master Printers' Association was established in 1948 and thereafter the industry was growing in leaps and bounds.

The sponsoring body of the Institute is The Sivakasi Master Printer's Association which is an affiliated member of the All India Master's Printer's Association. It is intended for training students in printing processes, with a special emphasis on offset printing. It is affiliated to the Directorate of Technical Education of the state. Students who successfully complete the courses here get absorbed in printing establishments in Sivakasi and other cities like Chennai, Mumbai, Bangalore. So our students play a very useful role to the printing industry in India and abroad.

This Institute, SMPA's Sivakasi Institute of Printing Technology, is governed by a Governing council consisting of 15 elected members which in turn elect its President, Vice-President, Secretary cum Correspondent and Treasurer. The Institute is registered under Societies Act.
