Hosting Dr Ramya Ahuja at Pakka reminded us of what true depth in materials really feels like. We started from raw materials and the pulp mill, moved through PM3 and its process controls, visited the assembly line, and ended at CHUK. At every step, she engaged with calm curiosity and sharp practical thinking.
Her questions on fibre behaviour, alternate pulps, recovery efficiency and circularity were precise and rooted in real manufacturing experience. She connected chemistry with scale up, sustainability with everyday operations, and innovation with real impact in a way that felt effortless.
Dr Ramya does not just understand materials. She understands how they behave inside a plant, how they transform, and how they shape the work we do. Watching her connect each part with such clarity was inspiring for all of us.
