JF Packaging Ltd., a forerunner in Sri Lanka’s packaging industry and mainly focused on providing unique integrated flexible packaging solutions and product development, received two Gold and three Silver Lanka Star awards at the recent Lanka Star Awards for 2017, organised by the Sri Lanka Institute of Packaging.
