The 28th International Processing & Packaging Exhibition<\/strong>, ProPak China 2023 will take place at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) from 19 to 21 June 2023<\/strong>. A number of Italian leading packaging machinery companies<\/strong> will be present at the expo as the Italian national pavilion organized by Italian Trade Agency Shanghai Office<\/strong> with UCIMA, Italian Packaging Machinery Manufacturers’ Association<\/strong>. Together we will have face-to-face communication with thousands of famous Chinese and foreign professional operators in the sector, to promote and showcase the innovative Italian processing and packaging industry while build partnerships with exceptional enterprises in the sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Italian leading packaging companies attending this year\u2019s exhibition include: Cama Group, CAVANNA SPA, DELFIN s.r.l. \u2013 Societ\u00e0 Unipersonale, FBR-ELPO S.p.A., Omag S.p.A., SIPA SPA<\/p>\n\n\n\n Packaging\u00a0\u00b7\u00a0Global trend and the Italian industry focus<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The packaging industry is influenced by various factors, such as consumer preferences, environmental concerns, regulatory requirements, technological innovations, and market trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sustainability<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The packaging industry is facing increasing pressure to reduce its environmental impact and adopt more eco-friendly practices. This includes using biodegradable, recyclable, or renewable materials, minimizing waste and energy consumption, and improving the recyclability and composability of packaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Innovation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The packaging industry is constantly evolving with new technologies and designs that aim to improve the functionality, performance, and appeal of packaging. Some of the emerging innovations include active packaging, intelligent packaging, smart labels, edible packaging, and nanotechnology. Innovation is the distinctive characteristic of Italian SMEs. Attention to detail, adaptability, and tailor-made solutions are what allow the main small and medium size Italian packaging companies to remain at top in terms of innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Italian packaging industry is also committed to sustainability and environmental protection.<\/strong>\u00a0The industry has reduced its use of some packaging materials such as plastic, glass and aluminum nearly by half, in favor of recycled products such as cardboard, over the past 10 years. The industry also aims to prevent food waste and make the most of agricultural raw materials by adopting circular economy principles and eco-design practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Italian Packaging Machinery<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n According to the latest edition of the Italian Trade Agency’s packaging machinery industry report this year,\u00a0Italy is China’s second-ranked importing country<\/strong>. China’s imports of packaging machinery and parts from Italy is about 248 million euros in 2022, with imports much higher than exports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n n the packaging machinery sector,\u00a0bottling or canning machines for beverage\/liquid food<\/strong>\u00a0took up the largest percent of China’s imports from Italy, with imports of about 79 million euros in 2022, accounting for 35 percent of China’s total imports.\u00a0The Italian imports of matching parts are also higher, at about 12 million euros, a 13% increase over the previous year.\u00a0In both categories, Italy is the biggest exporter to China. In addition, China imports quite a number of packing machines from Italy, with an import value of about 71 million euros in 2022.\u00a0About 30 million euros of import value was recorded in the category of filling, sealing, labeling and encapsulation machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to the data, the revenue of China’s packaging special equipment manufacturing industry in 2021 is about 67 billion RMB, and the output of packaging special equipment reached 754,300 units, with a year-on-year increase of 186.4%.\u00a0In terms of output distribution, it is mainly centralized in Shanghai, Guangdong, and Zhejiang.\u00a0In recent years, China’s machinery manufacturing capacity has been improving rapidly and is working towards automation, efficiency, intelligence, and energy saving. In the years ahead, there will be further improvements in CNC systems, mechatronics design, precision parts finishing, and steel materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ITA at PROPAK CHINA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Italian national pavilion also took a prominent part in ProPak China 2020 and 2021, prompted the cutting-edge\u00a0Italian\u00a0packaging machinery industry, and fostered quite a number of successful partnerships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Italian national pavilion<\/strong>\u00a0will also be presented at this year\u2019s ProPak China 2023, organized by\u00a0Italian Trade Agency Shanghai Office<\/strong>\u00a0with\u00a0UCIMA, Italian Packaging Machinery Manufacturers’ Association<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This year, June 19-21<\/strong>, come and find us at the Italian national pavilion<\/strong>,<\/p>\n\n\n\n HALL 5.1<\/strong>, booth 51E60<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n to see more of the innovative Italian packaging machinery industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The 6 Italian packaging machinery companies participating: <\/u><\/strong> <\/u><\/strong><\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00b7 Cama Group<\/p>\n\n\n\n www.camagroup.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00b7 CAVANNA SPA<\/p>\n\n\n\n www.cavanna.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00b7 DELFIN s.r.l. \u2013 Societ\u00e0 Unipersonale\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n www.delfinvacuums.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00b7 FBR-ELPO S.p.A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n www.fbr-elpo.it<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00b7 Omag S.p.A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n www.omag-pack.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00b7 SIPA SPA<\/p>\n\n\n\n www.sipasolutions.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n About UCIMA<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n UCIMA (Italian Packaging Machinery Manufacturers’ Association) is the national trade association which represents and supports the Italian packing and packaging machinery manufacturers.
