Packology, count-down starts 

There are less than 5 months to the first edition of Packology, the packaging show UCIMA - the Italian Association of Automatic Packaging Machinery Manufacturers - has strongly demanded and wanted.

The exhibition will take place in June 2010 at the Rimini Fairground.

UCIMA associated companies have positively and warmly responded to this new initiative

Gianmario Ronchi, owner of Ronchi Mario Spa and councillor of the Association, explains the reasons:

‘Packology is the show organized and wanted by the Italian Manufacturers of automatic machines. German and American manufacturers who, altogether, hauls the market, have since long moved in this direction by organizing their own exhibitions.

Expectations are those of having the possibility of structuring the event by responding to the requirements and suggestions of exhibitors. Through Ucima, which represents us, the manufacturers can really “build-up” their own show, being well aware of the requirements of the companies operating within this industry’

We remind that the new show will occupy a space of 64000 squared meters.

Interesting facilitations are foreseen for exhibitors, aimed at allowing their participation in large numbers. This show wants to be the event of the upswing after the worldwide economic recession that poured its effects on this industry as well, even if it has reacted very well thanks to the high technological level of the offer.

Asia confirms to be one of the benchmark for the Italian packaging industry

In 2008, according to the data published by UCIMA, the Italian Association representing the manufacturers of automatic packaging machines, exportation towards Asia have peaked up to a 10,0% increase, by confirming the second place in the market of major outlet for the packaging machinery, with a quota that has reached the 17,3%.
Doubtless Asia represents one of the most vivid and interesting marketplaces.
Ronchi, designing and realizing fillers, cappers and unscramblers for the packaging industry, has since some time identified growth possibilities in this area and has inaugurated at early 2008 its own branch Ronchi Asia Company Limited, based in Bangkok - Thailand.
Absolutely positive has been the reply received from the Asian market which interfaced with a team of experts of Asian origin and trained in Italy, who follow directly the Customers from the commercial contact through the consequent phases of manufacture, testing and start-up on the spot of Ronchi machinery.
Moreover, particularly appreciated is the technical support provided from the branch for the after-sale service, thank to Ronchi Asia’s ability of ensuring the supply of spare parts directly available from a local storeroom.
