Interview Ceo COESIA, Ing. Alessandro Paribelli, on participation in IPACK-IMA/Pharmintech

What prospects do you see for 2022?

"2022 has started positively in terms of sales and new opportunities, with an increase in business compared to last year. The geopolitical and economic situation is inevitably having an impact on our industry as well. In addition to a general increase in raw materials, we are experiencing difficulties in sourcing electronic components and increasing logistical complexities. Nevertheless, at Coesia we are continuing to work closely with customers and suppliers to support them in their investment and technological development projects".

What technologies will you be bringing to the show?

"Coesia participates in both IPACK-IMA and Pharmintech. Thanks to its companies, the Group offers a complete portfolio of solutions and services in the Consumer sector and is also present in the Pharma sector. In order to support its customers, who are facing new market challenges aimed increasingly at greater sustainability and digitization of processes, Coesia has chosen to bring its sustainability, digitization, automation and e-commerce solutions to the show. In addition, the eight participating companies (ACMA, Atlantic Zeiser, Citus Kalix, FlexLink, GF, HAPA, Norden and Volpak) will present their latest innovations in terms of production, printing and factory automation to improve production efficiency, digitization of operations and the ecological footprint of packaging for the FMCG and pharmaceutical markets".

What are your expectations for the event?

"We expect the 2022 editions of IPACK-IMA and Pharmintech to be driven by the desire to restart after two years marked by the impossibility of organizing exhibitions. We are enthusiastic about presenting our solutions and our technological innovations, about meeting customers and visitors, and about supporting them in all their business needs".
